“Jiyai is amazing !! So thoughtful and lovely with my cats. I have always been hesitant to leave my furbabies with anyone but Jiyai is so kind and warm. My cats loved spending time with her and I would highly suggest utilizing Jiyai’s care for your furbabies. Jiyai was always on time, sent me pictures, and updated me twice a day while I was on my trip. Thank you Jiyai for the love and support you extended.”
About: I have had a 3 dogs over the course of my life and 1 in college with my housemates. I have also cared for my senior dog when she was terminal for a year which gave me a lot of different experiences than usual animal care. I treat every dog I see on the street like my own and always stop for pets! I am currently a nursing student looking to make extra money. The program is online so I am available often to help out with whatever you need. I understand how to do the feeding schedules, walking schedules, and daily updates for parents as I take care of my dog at home some days for my parents as well. I can easily crate your dog if needed or help with feeding. I am great at following instructions and will respect your animal and your home accordingly!
“The very very very best. I leave for trips with complete peace of mind that they will love our pets and treat them like we do. We come back to happy, beautifully cared-for animals, every time.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals since I was young and continue to care for my senior cat whom I’ve had for the last 12 years. I have experience walking dogs ranging from small to large sizes, and live near a forest preserve trail that would be perfect for their walks! Friends and neighbors have also relied on me to do drop-in feedings as well. I work full-time, 4 days a week, evening shift. So I am available most mornings and have a pretty flexible 3-day weekend schedule. I live in a building complex that has a fenced in little dog park for your pup to run around in. I’m also near a forest preserve trail if they prefer longer walks to explore nature. Cats will have a safe, quiet space to stay with a large window to sun bathe in the mornings and cozy blankets to snuggle in.
“I am extremely happy with Isabela and her care of our two cats. We were away for close to two weeks and I was initially nervous about being gone that long. But, she took great care of them and sent daily updates and photos. I would highly recommend her and would be happy to use her again.”
“Mia was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter! From the very first visit, it was clear she genuinely cares about animals — my cat warmed up to her quickly and was clearly comfortable in her care. Mia was reliable and punctual every single visit, and she kept me updated regularly with photos and notes, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond with little extra touches that showed real attentiveness. I'd recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring cat sitter.”
About: Both of my parents are veterinarians, so I’ve grown up around animals all my life! I have basic animal care skills (walks, feeding, playing) and the extra ones too (animal body language, toxic vs nontoxic foods/materials, giving medication)! I have two cats myself, and have taken care of family and friends’ dogs for years. I’m currently working part time and have a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to play with and visit your pets! I prioritize safety for your pet! I understand that I will be someone unfamiliar coming to the home, and will make sure to let your pet lead the way in our interactions.
“Noorjahan and her family are stellar! They made our kitty feel right at home and we felt totally comfortable that she’d be safe and happy! Looking forward to the next time.”
“Emma is patient, kind, and very personable. You can really see her love for animals. She’s playful and fun around our pup! Shilo loves her and so do we! We would definitely recommend Emma’s pet services to a friend or family member!”
“Brinda did a great job with my 3 cats! She came on schedule and was a great communicator. I was so worried to leave my kitten for the first time and she reassured every day she was okay. I definitely recommend her!”
About: I love all animals and treat them with the respect they deserve. Dogs are definitely my spirit animal. I really enjoy taking care of pets and playing with them! :) I am a summer camp counselor which leaves my nights and weekends free. I wouldn't want to spend my free time doing anything else. I love spending time with animals! :) I will be gentle with your pet and firm when necessary. I adore animals and treat every one with respect and care. I will make sure everything is clean and as it should be! :)
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: My first pets were 2 rats. I took care of them exclusively, bathed them, fed and cleaned up after them. The family cat Simba was mainly my responsibility with occasional help from family, and I would take care of our family dog Bentley when I was home for summers from college. I've helped care for several other animals when babysitting children, and occasionally dog sat overnight for other families over a 3 day weekend period. I've also loved my time volunteering at the local dog shelter where I walk, clean up after, and play with all the dogs up for adoption until they find their forever families. Also enjoyed a 6 week program at a dog shelter in Athens, Greece in 2024! I’m working part and full time depending on the week, but have most availability on weekends and later in the afternoons. Happy to do house sitting as long as the dogs can be alone for up to 6 hours on the days I work! I care for all pets as if they were my own, making sure they have all the attention and care they need and then some.
“If I could give seven stars I would give this Cat Sitter seven stars we had a list of instructions five pages long and she filed everything every single instruction to the letter so our cat looks so great and healthy after being alone for four days so I am just thrilled at this Cat Sitter I cannot recommend her enough”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Glenview
Rosy was great! Both of my cats need pills and one is particularly adept at hiding in general, so we were worried about how he would react. She tried various strategies to get a pill in him, and even though it was unsuccessful in the end, I really appreciated her tenacity. She sent pictures and very reassuring updates after each visit.
Tiffany checked in on my cat, Tofu, while I was gone on a week long trip. She was very communicative and sent lots of cute pics. She brought an issue with our automatic feeder to our attention and went above and beyond to help us trouble shoot the issue. Tofu loved Tiffany and we will be booking her again in the future
Helen was awesome! Our cat is very anxious and requires a transdermal medicine and Helen was able to handle our cat really well. She was able to give proactive updates about her. She was thorough in understanding our cat's needs. We will be booking with her again for sure!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Glenview on Rover is $26.75 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 5,759 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Glenview. 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.
