Why Mobile Care?

The best medicine begins with
understanding how a bird truly lives

Birds and exotics often hide illness until they are critically unwell. The stress of transport, unfamiliar environments, barking dogs, and long waits can make evaluation more difficult. Wandering Wings was created to bring advanced avian medicine directly to your bird or exotic animal’s environment—where they feel safest and where we gain the most valuable insights into their health.

Care that gives back to the wild

The name Wandering Wings reflects a lifelong commitment to birds—not only those who share our homes, but also those found in the wild. The same principles that guide our work protecting endangered species around the world—compassion, scientific excellence, and respect for every animal—are the foundation of the care we provide to every patient we meet.

What Makes Wandering
Wings Different?

Wandering Wings brings advanced avian & exotic medicine directly to your home through personalized concierge veterinary care designed to minimize stress, maximize comfort, and elevate the standard of care for companion birds and exotic pets.

Led by Dr. Gabriela Zonenshine — internationally recognized avian veterinarian, conservationist, and founder of The Gabby Wild Foundation 501(c)(3) — Wandering Wings combines cutting-edge medicine with compassionate, relationship-driven care.

Concierge Medicine, Reimagined

From the moment you schedule your appointment, our focus is on understanding your pet—not simply treating a medical problem. Every house call includes:

  • A complimentary 10-minute Pre-Visit Nursing Consultation to discuss your goals, review medical history, and prepare for your appointment.
  • An unhurried in-home veterinary consultation where your pet can be evaluated in the environment where they feel safest.
  • A complimentary 10-minute Post-Appointment Veterinary Consultation to review findings, answer questions, and ensure you feel confident with your pet’s care plan.
  • A detailed written medical summary with personalized recommendations following every visit.

Specialists in Avian & Exotic Medicine

Birds and exotic companion animals have unique anatomy, physiology, behavior, nutrition, and husbandry needs that differ significantly from those of dogs and cats.

Our practice is dedicated exclusively to these remarkable species:

Whatever your companion, every recommendation is grounded in species-specific expertise and the latest advances in veterinary medicine.

Education Is Part of Every Appointment

We take the time to explain examination findings, discuss treatment options, answer your questions, and provide practical guidance tailored to your pet’s individual needs.

Our goal is not only to treat disease, but also to empower you with the knowledge and confidence to care for your companion throughout every stage of life.

Fear-Free, Compassionate & Collaborative

Every interaction is guided by patience, respect, and compassion—we strive to minimize fear and stress through gentle handling techniques and thoughtful appointment planning.

And when appropriate, we work closely with your primary care veterinarian, emergency hospitals, and veterinary specialists to ensure seamless communication and continuity of care.

At Wandering Wings, every patient is treated as an individual, every client is welcomed as a partner, and every appointment is approached with the time, attention, and expertise it deserves.
