“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.”
“Julianna took good care of our kitty and helped in other ways while we were away, bringing up garbage bin and bringing mail inside. She was friendly and flexible. Will definitely ask her back!”
“Cathleen went above and beyond when she watched our house and kitty for 9 days. We returned to a spotless home, filled with great energy. It was a great feeling to return to a clean house after a long flight. Our kitty and plants are thriving, thanks to Cathleen’s help.”
About: I have a long history caring for various animals, from farm to domestic. I've been caring for dogs ever since I was 16, all my dogs are rescues and have needed all kinds of special care and love! I'm familiar with reactivity and larger dogs, or smaller breeds and puppies. a little extra attention and time goes a long way. I'm happy to go on hikes and walks or stay in and cuddle. Feel free to ask me any questions and happy to provide my experience! Im a part time college student in kentfeild and I work at a café part time. Im looking for roles I can pick up on my off time. Weekends are easy bookings and I'm happy to talk about moving my schedule around for weekdays. Mornings and evenings are my typical availability during the week. If you have special scheduling requests please contact me a week out so we can find something that works! I'm not opposed to last minute bookings, no harm in asking! I always like to be clear about what a pet needs and what their boundaries are. Im unfamiliar with giving medicine through needles, and I don't have professional training for training dogs/reactivity. What I do have is experience with my pets, my friends pets, and a lot of compassion and patience. If your dog needs medicine, is reactive, or has certain triggers, please be up front with this information so I can provide the best service! In my house, my pets have a schedule for food and activity so they have a basic structure. Feel free to share about their personality, quirks, or any sensitivities. Communication is key!
About: I grew up in a house full of animals and pets and have grown to understand and love them fully and I hope to spread that love towards other animals! I can come take care of pets almost every day! I am a working Christian girl so Sundays I have church for an hour, and I just recently started a new job so far my hours are 10am-7pm Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays! I’m available afternoons on Thursdays and I’m available weekends! I believe that pets require an immense amount of attention and affection and I will always create a trusting bond with the pet owners and answer any questions the owners may have!
“Victoria did a marvelous job with our two kittens. We were away for 10 days. She made sure they were very well cared for, and had several play sessions with them every day. She took good care of our home, plants, and mail as well. She introduced the kitties (and us) to Cat TV on YouTube, which they love. We highly recommend Victoria!”
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and years of hands-on experience. I have four dogs of my own, and have experience training numerous dogs with different personalities and needs. I'm comfortable working with young pets who need patience, consistency, and basic training, as well as older pets who may need a slower pace and extra attention. I treat every animal with the same patience, care, and respect that I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday life. With four dogs of my own, my daily routine includes feeding, exercise, playtime, training, and plenty of attention. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, so adding another pet to my routine comes naturally. I’m dependable, attentive, and make sure each pet gets the individual care and companionship they need. I care for every pet based on their normal routine, personality, and their owner's instructions. In a client's home, I make sure they have fresh food and water, exercise or playtime, a clean and comfortable environment, and plenty of attention. I respect each pet's boundaries and their home while keeping safety a top priority. Whether it's a high-energy dog, a playful kitten, or a pet that needs extra patience, I treat them like they're one of my own.
About: I am the Proud Dog Dad of 5 amazing fur babies! I've been blessed to have a total of 28 pets in my lifetime and I would love to care for yours too! I work as a nonprofit CEO during the week, which gives me a flexible, self-directed schedule. Most of my availability is on weekends, but I also have some limited weekday availability for quick walks, drop-in visits, feeding, potty breaks, and check-ins. I provide care for pets in the comfort of their own home and yard, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I follow each pet owner's instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication (if needed), and any special care requirements. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine while ensuring they receive plenty of attention, affection, and safe, reliable care during your absence.
“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.”
“I couldn't have asked for a better person to take care of my cat Scrub while I was away this past weekend. As soon as I met. Krista, I felt that we had found someone who would care for Scrub just as I would and with the need for her new medications it was really comforting to realize that there would be someone there to take care of Scrub with the same care that I would. I would recommend Krista to anyone without hesitation and look forward to working with her again. Thank you so much! Krista, you really made my weekend much less stressful and I thank you for that. Peace Jeff and Scrub”
“This was the first time hiring a service to care for our cat. Ron was outstanding. He was able to adjust his schedule to accommodate caring for our cat “Kuma” while we are out of the country. His easy going and caring personality is very evident. We enjoyed his daily reports and photos and felt very at ease that he was caring for Kuma. We highly recommend him and the Rover service to care for your pet while you are away. Ron will be our first choice in caring for Kuma in the future. Thank you , thank you , thank you.”
“Gina always makes me feel at ease when I travel because I know my cats are well taken care of. She’s very communicative and punctual! She also gave my kitty his medication, which I was so appreciative of. Gina’s the best, definitely recommend her.”
About: I have hands-on experience with puppies who need routine, positive reinforcement, and plenty of play, as well as senior pets who benefit from slower walks and extra attentiveness. I’m comfortable with administering medication, sticking to detailed routines, and making sure pets feel safe in their own space. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and genuinely invested in each pet’s well-being. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. I’m flexible and dependable, able to provide regular visits, walks, or overnight care as needed. My schedule allows me to dedicate focused time to each pet, whether it’s for feeding, administering medication, cleaning litter boxes, or simply giving attention and companionship. I prioritize consistency so pets feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for every pet while caring for them in their own home. I follow all instructions closely, keep their space clean, and monitor pets for any signs of stress or health changes. I provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, and ensure pets feel secure and comfortable throughout my visits. My calm, attentive approach builds trust with both pets and their owners, so you can feel confident your furry family members are in caring, responsible hands.
“Kalei provided our nearly eighteen year old cat Milo (and equally old goldfish) with twice daily visits for two weeks, feeding and providing much appreciated brushing and loving attention to Milo. She even managed an ant invasion calmly and professionally. We were able to focus on our travels knowing by way of Kalei's regular updates and photos, that all was in good hands at home.”
About: I love animals more than people! Been petsitting all my life. First to offer my friends and neighbors to be Auntie to their little muffins. I owned a petsitting and dog training business in Portland for many years... had to move and change jobs but I still love having as many furfriends as possible! I consider myself very intuitive and always respect a pets boundaries. Listening is key and watching for body language. I will take the very best care of your home and pet!! Just like they were my own. I work for myself and have a very flexible schedule. I can work around what works best for you. Great at time management and super reliable. I prefer sitting at my clients homes and have extensive experience with housesitting alone. I have managed luxury homes and can offer extra things like plant watering, mail pickup, coordinating with staff, etc.
About: I’ve been caring for friends and neighbors dogs for years now. I’ve never had the opportunity to have a dog myself so I live vicariously through taking care of others dogs! I’m currently a college student and I’m available to work weekends and even nights. Right now I’m on summer break so my availability is pretty open! I’m very flexible with what is best for the dog/for the client in their home. I’ll make sure the dog won’t be able to get out and will keep a watchful eye.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Glen Ellen on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,230 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.
