“I can tell that they really care about Navi. Navi came back super exhausted as if he had his own vacation while i was on vacation! I loved the pictures they provided while i was gone!!! Super thankful for them!!! ☺️☺️”
“Julie & Chad took wonderful care of our Lancelot this weekend! He was so happy when we picked him up, and we could tell he really enjoyed his stay! They communicated and sent photos during the weekend, which we so appreciated!”
“Charlie has a big back yard that Rico greatly enjoyed. Charlie was very attentive to his emotions and he sent me a lot of pictures. I am very happy with his service and highly recommend to all!”
“This is our 3rd time with Liss. She is so calm and attentive to my little dog, which is just what my dog needs. My dog is very attached to me and has had some negative separation experiences. But with Liss she seems very comfortable and that gives me peace of mind when I travel. I also like that she doesn’t have a whole pack of dogs at any one time and she only takes small dogs, as my dog wouldn’t do great in a big pack environment. Also, I really appreciate that she lets Ellie sleep with her. That definitely works well for Ellie and I think it is part of the successful separation.”
“Milou had a wonderful time staying with Barbara and he was very well taken care of. Barbara was very easy to communicate with and she sent us lots of photos which we appreciated.”
“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”
“Our “little man” had such a great time here. I totally loved the communication everyday on his well being and care. We love that you loved him like your own A and T!”
“Krista was wonderful as always for boarding! Evie got along great with the other dogs and I received daily photo & video updates of her playing. Evie is excited for her next stay!”
“Catherine is amazing! She was super responsive & flexible with a last minute change in schedule, administered antibiotics while we were away, and we feel totally comfortable leaving our pup in her care.”
“Steven and Diana were great with my puppy! We got regular picture updates of all the fun they were having together. They have a nice fenced yard so he could run all of his energy out. We will definitely be booking them again!”
“Kaylee was a wonderful sitter for miko! She was both kind and attentive to all his needs especially as a wheelchair pup. She always checked in with me and gave me updates on his care. She’s such a sweet person and I think any pup that stays with her will like her!”
“Our pup came home happy and well cared for. Kelly gave our dog enough exercise and even catered to our finicky eater. She was kind and treated our dog like her own! She also was easy to work with.”
“5 stars for Jessica and her husband! They took such great care of my dog, Frankie. She was very communicative and provided lots of updates and pictures. Jessica was even sweet enough to come to pick Frankie up to save me time as I got ready for my trip. Frankie got plenty of walks and snuggles and was in great hands while I was away. We will definitely be using them again for future care!”
“Our lab just had the best weekend ever! She received so much attention and had a blast playing with all her new friends!! ❤️ We also received photos and videos all weekend! It was really great and we knew our pup was well taken care of. Thanks Jen!!”
“Leaving Mabel with Brooke for the first time felt so comfortable. She treated Mabel as her own and Mabel was happy to have the company of her dogs. We received updates along her stay and you could always see Mabel looked quite at home. Brooke’s updates let us know Mabel was loved and cared for while we were away. So glad we found Brooke!”
“Our pug LOVED his 4-day stay with Brenda and her family! Our little guy got along great with her two pit bulls and really bonded with their little boy. The dogs played and ran together in the fenced in yard. Our pug came home happy and ready to nap. Each day, I received a couple of photos with a brief update which I appreciated. This was a short-notice booking, and I am so grateful that Brenda was available. We will definitely arrange dog-sitting with Brenda in the future.”
“Saniya did a great job watching our dog Wally! We can tell he felt loved and received a lot of attention and cuddles. Also she was great at sending pictures of the pup. Would highly recommend her!”
“can't say enough about the care that my dog Moose got from KiirstenC while I traveled over the holiday. ! It was our first experience with Rover. Moose was well fed, played with, snuggled, and truly loved by Kiirstenn and her family. She sent me texts and pictures while I was gone updating me on his activities. Moose is a Shih Tzu, Kiirsten's dog is also a Shih Tzu. She gets us! I can honestly say that I did not worry about Moose all the while I was gone. I would call upon Kiirsten to leave Moose with whenever I need to travel again, knowing he is loved and well taken care of when I cant be with him.”
“Perla took wonderful care of my cat for 3 days. She followed all of my feeding instructions carefully and kept me updated throughout his stay. She regularly sent me photos and videos, which gave me great peace of mind. One of the things that stood out the most was seeing videos of my cat sleeping next to her daughter. To me, that showed that he felt comfortable, safe, and secure in their home. It was clear that Perla treated him with kindness and care. I highly recommend Perla to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such good care of my kitty!”

Alison was a lifesaver, when my plans changed and I had to find a sitter on 3 days notice, she was willing and very communicative. My dog was very at ease with her, plenty of exercise and play, and I was happy knowing he was well taken care of. Will use her again in the future.
Tyler is an outstanding Rover host and has truly spoiled both our family and our two dogs! He’s extremely proactive with communication, keeping us updated with photos, videos, walks and playtime throughout their stay. We also appreciated his calm demeanor and his easygoing dog, Ava, who was a great companion for our pups. Tyler provides exceptional care from start to finish, and we look forward to booking with him again!
Julie watched our two small dogs during a long family trip. Because she works from home, she was able to take them outside frequently and spend a lot of time with them throughout the day. She also shared regular photos and updates, which we appreciated. Our dogs enjoyed spending time with Julie and playing with her own small dogs. They settled in well and looked very comfortable in her home. We would hire Julie again and recommend her to others looking for dog care.
Timely, kind, and incredibly reassuring—Nick made the whole experience seamless, especially as my first time using someone outside of family. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. Nick has a calm demeanor and kind presence . Communication was excellent, with updates provided daily or as often as requested, which gave me real peace of mind. Highly recommend.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Bloomington on Rover is $47.73 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,604 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bloomington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Bloomington sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Bloomington landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Bloomington home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Bloomington.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Bloomington sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
