Bird Emergency?
We are not trained in avian medicine and cannot provide assistance. Please contact the Arizona Exotic Animal Hospital at 623-243-5200
Here at Tropic Zone, we take pride in everything we do, from our customer service to the way we clean the store each day. We are not salesmen; we want to find the right birds and products for each customer. We encourage our customers to come "test drive" at our store.
Our baby birds are hand fed and socialized so you get the most enjoyment out of having one of our babies as your companion. We raise them onto a pelleted/treat/fresh food diet that is appropriate for each species. Our birds eat like royalty!
When you come in the door, you'll notice that Tropic Zone is a different kind of place. We put a lot of time into cleaning not only the cages, but also our grooming and play area. Every cage, every play stand, or anything that a bird touches gets cleaned every single day. Smaller birds that are prone to being very messy and babies get their cages cleaned twice each day. Water dishes are cleaned and refilled at least twice per day, sometimes more if needed. All dishes are cleaned with a pet safe disinfectant. This is why when you enter Tropic Zone you don't smell anything but clean air.
Tropic Zone is looking for a cage cleaner
24 - 32 hours per week, including Saturday and possibly Sunday.
Here are our requirements:
- 18+
- Bird experience is required, but it doesn't have to be big birds.
- Sturdy shoes - it's not uncommon to walk 3 - 6 miles on a Saturday.
- Reliable Transportation — Our birds are on a schedule. If you're running late, they are running late, and no one likes a grumpy bird.
- A winning smile - You may need to answer the phone or interact with customers when they drop off or pick up their birds for boarding.
What to expect:
- You're going to get dirty.
- You're going to get pooped on.
- You're probably going to get bit.
- You will get to interact with some amazing animals, and some pretty cool people.
Your first day is a volunteer day. We get it, this job isn't for everyone. If you get part way through the first day and feel like it isn't for you, then you can be on your way with no hard feelings.
Stop by and pick up an application—we won't email it to you. We're old-fashioned and want to see your smiling face in person. You can always take it home and bring it back or fill it out while you're here. A resume of prior experience is great, but you'll still need to fill out an application. We can't wait to meet you.
