About: I have had cats my whole life and I love their quirky nature. Recently got my own dog after loving other people’s dogs for years, she just turned three and is pretty well trained and fun to play with. Now I’m branching out to care for and play with your pets so you can get stuff done and have fun. I love them all, hamsters, birds, you name it. I will boop! Right now, I’m available for your pets on weekday evenings and most Saturdays. I’m here for you! Can do. Will enjoy the experience so much. Very excited to have new animal friends to play with. I do have a fenced yard and one large dog, two cats. Mostly I am ready to come to your place for pet care, or take them out on walks as you prefer. I am here for you.
“Gabriel was wonderful with our 2 cats. Our cats opened up to him despite them not being big fans of strangers. He was on time for every visit and followed our instructions perfectly. Provided great daily updates. We would definitely reach out to him again the next time we need a sitter.”
“Karyna is everything you want and more! Such a sweet and friendly person. She is super engaging with my dog, great communication, thoughtful, punctual…i could go on and on. I will 100% be calling in her again!”
“Katie is a wonderful find. She came to our home first to meet the guy, see the house, put up with my stories of his fabulousness. Then her evening and morning 1-hour visits were 1) absolutely on time as agreed, 2) featured many photos of his various activities, 3) the completed checklist of meals, litter box, etc. and 4) great info on his behavior, especially since this was the first time she cat-sat. That he hissed at her on first visit, was chill and lovey on his second (sounds like him). Katie has made it her business to know as much as she can about cat behavior (she is a cat owner), such as why female cats may like their rumps rubbed while my male cat might not. She is also just a lovely, attentive, curious person. So glad she's in the neighborhood.”
About: I am a full-time, professional pet sitter with extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and needs. Because this is my dedicated career—not a side job—I’m able to provide attentive, reliable, and genuinely loving care tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. I understand that pets are family, and I prioritize their comfort, safety, and emotional well-being while you’re away. From energetic dogs who need structure and play to independent or shy cats who need patience and calm consistency, I bring experience, intuition, and heartfelt care to every visit, so you can travel with complete peace of mind. I have had many pets in the past but currently have a Chinese Crested dog (hairless) and a long hair chihuahua. Both are rescues. I am currently available full time to care for your pets in your home. I have done full time and part time pet sitting for several years. At this time, I only do pet care and house sitting in pet owner's home. I am not set up to do pet sitting at my home.
“Tiffany took great care of our guinea pig and fish while we were out of town for a week during the holidays. She is an amazing petsitter and went above and beyond the care we were hoping for. Our guinea pig had last minute health issues, and Tiffany took on extra medication administration as well as wound care. She did an amazing job, and we can’t thank her enough.”
“Victoria was super attentive and a great communicator. We just needed a quick drop in for our cat this time, but we would definitely love to have Victoria take care of Johnny again!”
About: I have worked in the pet care industry for about 4 years. I have my own pets my entire life, including dogs, cats, birds, hermit crabs and bunnies! I love all animals and have a Bachelor's degree in Zoology. I have been working at professional pet daycares all throughout college and absolutely love it! I take much pride in caring for others and their furry children. I always treat them as my own and have a special love for every pet I've met! I currently work full time, but I do have a very spread out, set schedule. I also have my own car, so transportation is not an issue. I have one week day and one weekend day off and am willing to work outside of my normal job hours. I have a fenced yard and live in a calm community that is pet friendly. I have a vast knowledge of what products and foods are safe for animals. I also know very much about animal body language and different breeds, which helps me understand pets more completely. Having worked in the pet care industry for so long, I understand how much love and care it takes to look after someone's pet and to anticipate what they will need to be comfortable.
About: I raised my last puppy into a loving, well-behaved dog. Volunteered at shelters in San Luis Obispo, CA when I lived there. I'm high energy, a morning person, and love to hike, run, beach, and move with a furry partner. Very cognizant of limitations on warm days. I also enjoy less active and senior dogs! I have a calm house, no children. One other dog, a one year old lab named Apollo. Your dog WILL enjoy their time with me, and I'll send you super cute pics to prove it! Currently, I'm working remotely while I help my dad with home improvement projects. I do not flake. If we make an agreement, rest assured I will be there. If you need a particular set of days further out, let me know and I can arrange that. We have a large yard and easy access to hikes and parks. I have hardwood floors, so no worries/carpet stains if there is an "accident." I prefer to spend most time outside the house, either getting exercise or at a coffeeshop in the shade. I work remotely, and help my dad with home improvement projects. The house backs up to a trail system, and I take our dog out every morning and afternoon for walks. There is a fenced, grassy space in the yard, as well as a dog park down the street that we frequent. We have a large grassy yard with long leashes if they're hanging outside th fenced area. Inside space is all dog friendly, and we allow ours on the couch. Just let me know if you have limits you'd like enforced for consistency.

About: I absolutely love animals! I have had dogs and cats since I was a kid, so I have experience working with multiple cats and dogs at a time. Additionally, I have experience volunteering in a shelter, providing puppy/kitten care and pet socialization. I work from home, so I am available most hours/days to pop in for a visit or to give a walk. I love keeping active and taking dogs on walks. I have a pup at home who enjoys going out a couple times a day and exploring the outdoors. I strive to keep my own pets safe and happy in a loving environment- I will do the same for yours! I have experience giving medication if necessary.
“Hillary came to my rescue after someone else cancelled the day before. Came over to meet Lola and go over her eating schedule. When she came over to feed Lola, I got a nice video of Lola greeting her. I would highly recommend Hillary for your pet sitting needs. Thank you Hillary!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Glen Ellen on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,249 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Glen Ellen. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
