About Bella Birdie

My name is Glenn Sorino. I've been a professional bird sitter since 1995. I am based in Brooklyn, but serve all five Boroughs.

As a former manager of the "original" 33rd & Bird (with the late Michael Held), I have experience caring for hundreds of birds in a "real world" environment.

My services:

  • Free Initial Appointment
  • Grooming
  • On-Site and In-House Bird-Sitting (any size/species)
  • Behavioral Consulting

I'm also heavily involved in rescue and adoption. Additional services include pet sitting and sleepovers for cats, rabbits, dogs, etc.

I'm experienced, knowledgeable, and compassionate with excellent references.
