Who can I trust to keep my bird...vacation?

[mldapril17]

I have an adorable loving 3 1/2 yr. old male love bird.
I moved to Brevard County; the Viera/Rockledge Florida area recently and I'm going on vacation for a week in October. The two local pet bird stores do board, however they close early and are too busy to give him attention.
Therefore I am in search of someone to board him with while on vacation.
I don't want to leave him in a store stuck in a cage all day and night! At home he is interacted with, held, hand fed -(spoiled) and loved on.
I have a breeder friend that would watch him back home... I don't know anyone here.
How do I find an experienced, caring person to keep him while I'm gone?
I don't want him stressed out and feeling abandoned by me!
Anyone have referrals for me?
Thank you.

Do you have any friends or family who would do it? I'd give them a safety list if they don't keep birds. I did that with my mom and her roommate, and it seems everyone had a great time.
