After the capture of Kiev by the troops of Andrei Yuryevich of Bogolyubovo in 1169, Vladimir's father took the throne of Kiev, and Vladimir succeeded him in Pereyaslavl. In 1173, Vladimir participated in his uncle's new campaign to the Kiev land against the sons of Rostislav Mstislavich Prince of Smolensky, this time unsuccessfulyl. In 1177 Vladimir helped another uncle - Vsevolod Bolshoy Gnezdo against Gleb Rostislavich of Ryazan in the battle of Koloksha, the success of the private strike led by Vladimir in many ways predetermined the outcome of the whole battle.

Since 1183, Vladimir participated in the war with the Polovtsians. Svyatoslav Vsevolodovich Kievsky sent his cousin Igor Svyatoslavich to Polovtsy, and Vladimir was sent on a campaign by Svyatoslav's co-regent on the Kiev land - Rurik Rostislavich Ovruchsky. Between Igor and Vladimir a quarrel arose over which of them to ride ahead, since the advance detachments, as a rule, seized a large prey. Vladimir deployed his troops and robbed the Novgorod-Seversky principality of Igor. Vladimir participated in triumphant victories at Oreli ( 1183 ) and at Horol(March 1, 1185 ). Then, after Igor Svyatoslavich 's unsuccessful campaign in the steppe in the same year, Konchak invaded Pereyaslavl principality. Vladimir took the fight in front of the city walls, received a wound and retreated to the fortress. The Polovtsi went over to the siege, which allowed Svyatoslav and Ryurik to concentrate their forces and move on to the offensive. They crossed the Dnieper at Zaruba, Konchak took off the siege and hurried back to the steppe.

Vladimir Glebovich died in 1187.
