Hi,
I know there are several places in NYC where you can board a pigeon.
I am not in NY, but I asked around, hope I can come up with an answer soon.

Thank you Reti. Much appreciated!

It can also be NJ or CT or Long Island.

I am searching for the rehabber list on this site and it's not easily accessible. I wanted to check it out. does anyone know what it's listed under? thanks.

THANK YOU! I did see that. I thought that was mostly avian vets. at least many of the ones I perused seemed to be either avian vets or 'refuges' for wildlife. There were no individual rehabbers in NYC listed which I guess is how it feels some times. you have to be 'in the know' and even then there are not that many. but thank you for clarifying !

If you will join the New York City Pigeon Rescue Central group and ask on this list, I suspect you will quickly and easily find someone to bird sit for you ..

Hi curiousgal,

I don't know if I can help you or not...I have never pigeon sat for anyone's pij. I don't have a coop or loft or anything, but I do rescue pigeons and love them with all my heart. I might not be the set up you're looking for, but if you end up being in a real bind, contact me to discuss it. ( I live on Long Island in East Northport.)

Good luck!
