My bike is under cover at home but not at work.
I personally have used a quick release seatpost and taken the saddle indoors with me to prevent thievery and exposure to inclement weather. At other times and on other bikes I have just used a simple plastic shopping bag from the supermarket as a saddle cover. I take it off when I get on the bike since my rear covers the saddle then. You can always get one of those official Brooks saddle covers, but I would never ride with it. Good luck!
