“Anna took care of our cat, Jovie, for 10 days while we were away, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, her communication was excellent-she reached out before we booked to come over for a meet and greet where she asked thoughtful questions and made sure she fully understood Jovie’s needs. During our time away, Anna kept us updated regularly through Rover and text, which gave us a real peace of mind. Jovie was unsure of Anna at first (she can be shy with new people), but Anna was so patient and caring. She took the time to build her trust, play with her, and make sure she felt safe and cared for. We were so grateful for the attention and effort Anna put in! We can’t recommend her enough!”

“Brittany did a great job taking care of my cat! She was always on time for her visits and provided detailed updates and pictures after every check-in, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was attentive, caring, and made sure my cat was well taken care of and got plenty of love and attention. I really appreciated her communication and reliability. I would definitely recommend Brittany to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

About: I have been pet-sitting for 7 years; caring for animals is my passion! My style of sitting is treating every pet as if they’re my own😊🐾 I am currently working a part time job, so I may have certain windows of availability—but I am more than happy to work with you on times :) In my clients home, I will follow all rules and guidelines relating not only to their pet, but also to respecting their space as well.

About: We've had dogs and cats in our family for years and miss hearing the patter of paws! We treat our pets well and enjoy playtimes and grooming dogs. Either my son or I are home to be with your pet. I work part time and my son is here when I work. He is working on his master's in business and loves to walk and play with the dogs. We do not have any pets of our own at present. This is a pet friendly home and yard on a quiet cul de sac. We dog sit other family members pets at time. Dogs are welcome in most rooms of the house.

About: I’m a passionate, reliable pet caregiver with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals. I grew up surrounded by pets and have turned that lifelong love into a career, working with pet families, in pet retail at stores. I understand that every pet has a different personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a calm, patient companion, I’ll provide attentive, loving care and treat them like part of my own family. I have a lot of spare time on my hands so I could use that time to care for your pet! I am your pet Nannie around the corner. I have experience dog walking, so I understand how it goes. I also have lots of experience playing with pets. I have a huge passion for pets

“Sarah took care of our cat for four days at our house while we were away. He has to be given medication at certain times during the day and also loves human attention. Sarah was caring and responsible, spent time hanging out with him, and made sure he got his meals and medicine at the right times. She also checked in with us, asked good questions, and responded quickly when we checked in with her. We hope to hire Sarah again, and highly recommend her for petsitting and housesitting.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for over 6 years. I help with walking, feeding, playtime, bathing, and basic training. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and following specific care routines. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m available all day on weekends, Fridays after 3 PM, and Thursdays. I have a flexible schedule during these times, allowing me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and consistent care. I’m reliable, punctual, and happy to adjust to your pet’s routine whenever possible. I prioritize safety and comfort at all times. I carefully follow care instructions, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure pets are supervised. Having 2 dogs and 2 cats has taught me how important patience, routine, and trust are when caring for animals.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a kid but a few years ago, I started to help my boyfriend in bathing, feeding, walking, and taking care of his dog. Since then, I have also started watching dogs for my friends and family members when they need assistance. I am currently available all day, any day to take care of pets as I work remotely and have flexibility in my day to day schedule. I would care for pets in my home by spending time with them, feeding them, walking them, and making sure that they have fun for the duration of their stay :)

About: I have experience caring for a variety of animals through my work at zoos. I personally own a Siberian Husky and a cat, both of whom are 10 years old and in excellent health. I also have previous experience dog sitting for family and friends. Working at a zoo has given me an understanding of the importance of animal nutrition, exercise, and mental stimulation through enrichment. I currently work at the zoo, and since I have weekdays off, I know it’s important for your pets to continue receiving care even when you’re at work, whether that means walking them or simply being there for them. I care deeply about my pets, and I understand you do, too. I always triple check doors when leaving to make sure your fur baby is safe. I am also comfortable with crating any dogs or feeding any shy kitties.

About: To me, pet sitting is about so much more than feeding pets and letting them outside—it’s about making them feel safe, loved, and cared for while their favorite people are away. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to get to know each one so they feel comfortable and at home. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your pet is full of energy and loves to play, enjoys long walks, or is a senior who just wants a calm companion, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, can administer medications if needed, and always keep an eye out for any changes in their behavior or health. I also believe communication is just as important as great pet care. I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in loving hands. My goal is for you to come home to a relaxed, well-cared-for pet who has been treated like family every step of the way. As a college student, my schedule is flexible, which means your dog will never be left alone for long. The only time I’m away is for a few hours each day while I’m in class, and the rest of my time is spent at home giving your pup the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s playtime in the yard, walks, cuddles on the couch, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a home away from home where your furry family member gets plenty of one-on-one attention and care. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I have a large, fully fenced-in yard where your pup can safely run, play, and explore. I also have a small, friendly dog who loves having new friends to play with and can provide great companionship for social dogs. If your dog prefers to be the only pet or isn’t comfortable around other dogs, that’s absolutely okay! My home has a separate basement area that allows me to keep the dogs completely separated that I sleep at, ensuring every pet has a calm, safe, and stress-free environment. I’ll always care for your dog based on their individual personality, needs, and comfort level so they feel right at home.

About: Lifelong dog owner and experienced cat caregiver. Proud dog mom to my rescue, Poncho. I’ll provide loving, dependable care, updates, and plenty of attention every visit. My schedule is currently more flexible than usual since my recent work contract ended, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and can often accommodate last-minute requests. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love being able to provide dependable, attentive care for pets while giving their owners peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine always come first. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and any special requests. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Although my senior dog passed away in January and I don’t currently have pets at home, I’ve volunteered with a local cat shelter for the past four years. That experience has strengthened my skills caring for animals with different personalities, needs, and comfort levels. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or senior, I’ll provide patient, loving, and reliable care.

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. For the past 3 years I’ve taken care of dogs for multiple families, stayed over to care for pets overnight, worked as a dog walker, and always love playing and meeting new pups. I have cared for multiple pets at once, am consistent with feeding and walking schedules, have cared for pets of all ages, and love to share updates and pictures of your pup. I am a graduate student based in Lake Bluff who loves animals! I have a car and a lot of morning and evening flexibility with some mid-day flexibility as well to feed, walk, or check in on pets. I am also available for overnight stays to ensure your pet is cared for overnight. Because of my flexible schedule, I am available for last minute bookings to help care for your pet in any way needed. I can’t wait to meet new furry friends! I feel comfortable staying in clients home if needed, dropping in to walk or feed pets, and crating pets if needed. I’ve had repeat clientele for whom I’ve cared for free roam and crated pets, dogs with special care needs, stayed overnight both short and long term, and worked as a dog walker. My own dog is a small, 18 lbs, friendly dog who loves to meet new friends. I have experience with my own and other pets and thus have a good understanding of animal body language, building trust, and understand that a good pet sitter should get to know your pet on their own terms. I am also willing to do meet and greats to ensure both you and your pet are comfortable with the match.

About: I have hands-on animal care experience from working at a doggy daycare, grooming, and boarding facility, volunteering at an animal shelter for two years, and fostering animals with my family. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away! I have a flexible schedule and am available for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits around my school schedule, Monday through Thursday. I have open availability outside of class and am happy to coordinate with pet owners to find times that work best for everyone! I prioritize each pet’s safety and comfort by following their usual routines, respecting their individual needs, and carefully following their owner’s instructions. I ensure pets are always supervised appropriately, keep them away from potential hazards, and make sure they have access to fresh water, food, and a safe environment. I also provide plenty of attention, patience, and love!

Beyond grateful that I connected with Lauren and Lauren, and they could help with our cat while our entire family traveled together. Communication is always quick, clear, and helpful. They flagged every visit, and kept me updated with all the details from each house visit for our cat. Will absolutely keep them at the top of the list for any future needs!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Glencoe

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Glencoe is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 1,781 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Glencoe. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Glencoe. On Rover:

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 89% can help with daily exercise

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
