Would he be less likely to attack a pet sitter if you were not in the room? I'm thinking about the theory that you are his mate, but he doesn't have to protect you when you are not in the room/house.

Perhaps have the pet sitter come over and change out the cage, but you be elsewhere in the house, to see if it would work out.

Dianne, that actually works, but the human has to be out of the place completely in my experience. When I birdsit, a bunch of unruly marauders (adorable still), it takes a while for them to register that their daddy (fave human) isn't in the house anymore. At that point they calm down and (usually) accept cure, cage cleaning, even cuddles. But if owner is in next room.... They can hear everything!!!!!

The pet store sounds good...
Could he go for a couple of days to stay, before you go
away? This way he may recognise it, for his longer stay, and you taking him home after a few days, will maybe suggest to him your coming back for him...
yep I know it sounds a bit muddled in my explaining it but hope you get the gist!
