About: I grew up on a farm, so animals have always been a big part of my life. My family has had dogs for most of my life, and although we’re currently between dogs after losing our two longtime companions, we love having new four-legged friends in the house! My 14-year-old son and 16-year-old daughter are fantastic with dogs and happily help make sure every guest gets plenty of playtime, attention, and cuddles, if they’re into that sort of thing! I work remote and am home most weekends if not home I am at kids sports. I enjoy walking dogs and whole family likes playing with and caring for your dog or dogs. Family of 4 that loves dogs and have had dogs but are in between dogs after ours passed. Good size home and yard. Also have great enclosed neighborhood to walk in.
“My fearful dog has become comfortable very quickly with Emily. She doesn’t usually like strangers but Emily understands and doesn’t try to push her. I’m glad we found a good match for day care.”
“Our two Papillons had their first Doggy Day Care appointment with Alecia and Todd on Sept. 3rd. After I picked them up and arrived back home, I sat them both down and asked them to rate their Day Care visit. Together, they rated their stay with Alecia and Todd '2' paws up which is the the highest rating that Papillons are known to give for events such as this. Afterward, they asked that I book another visit with Alecia and Todd as soon as possible which I was only to happy to do ...”
“Aimee was great. Patient with our buddy when he was nervous and her yard/house were a good fit for our pup. Good communication. We will reach out to her for daycare again!!”
About: Growing up on a farm, I have a love for all animals and take great joy in their genuine excitement for the world around them. We've owned dogs and cared for friend's and neighbor's pets for years. Having a fenced in backyard allows us to give more exercise opportunities your pet and give them a bit more freedom while they are here. My husband and I both work from home and our 16 year old son loves to snuggle and play with pets of all kind! This gives us flexibility and options for ensuring your fur-baby receives plenty of attention and on-demand potty breaks. We typically go on 2 walks a day, and like to make time for playing in the yard. We have a large backyard perfect for playing! Overall, our family tries to lead an active lifestyle, and also really enjoy snuggling up. We have a pretty large, open floor plan on the main level, so if you have a pet who struggles with stairs, that won't be an issue here.
About: I walk dogs usually 3 or 4 times a day. Sometimes even 5! Depending on their age, fitness level, health etc! They absolutely love being outside rest assure your dog will not be lying around all day unless that is something you would like me to do! Also I have a fantastic dog park here! The dogs can exercise at their own pace! It's usually empty but the dogs love it! Also I have a great walking path outside! One thing I provide that other sitters don't is 24/7 companionship! The dogs and I get really attached to each other and we rarely leave each others side! I like to stay home I live alone and when we are not out 99% of the time we are together! I'm sure most of the sitters don't take the time to spend with your dog the way that I do! I'm excellent at communicating with Pictures, Text, and Details if that's your preference! I'm 60 years old and retired this is all I do! I can only handle a certain amount of dogs per month! I am a walker I walk well over 60 miles a month! I'm in a great neighborhood right around the block from the Eagan Outlets Stores! Thank you very much for your consideration. I am retired and this is my only job so I am available 24/7. I have 4 great walking paths outside without barely leaving the block. Very little traffic great neighborhood right by the Eagan Outlets Stores. As far as safety and environment I have a 300,000.00 insurance policy for all of our protection. I live in a excellent neighborhood right by the Eagan Outlets Stores.
“Emily was great and so kind with Willa! She provided updates, pictures, and videos during Willa’s day with her. This was especially helpful since it was our first time using Rover. Emily’s communication was wonderful and I could tell Willa enjoyed her day there. Looking forward to our next booking!”
“Phillip was awesome and so flexible. We found ourselves traveling back from Iowa State in terrible driving conditions. We made it back later than we had originally set up but Phillip was flexible enough to offer to keep Millie overnight if we needed to stop and stay somewhere or if get back even later than we thought. We would use Phillip again in a heartbeat!”
“Amanda and Adam were so amazing with Winnie! Our dog is 1.5 years and has so much energy and they were able to tire her out! They gave frequent updates and photos! Winnie also had an upset tummy and they even made her rice ❤️ this has been our best rover experience yet!”
“Taylor was awesome! She accepted my booking with only 45 minutes to spare and she took adorable pics of my pup while I was out. Will definitely give her a call again!”
“Aish and family are amazingly friendly people who really care about what they do and truly love dogs! I immediately got pictures and videos of them and they were so happy! We will definitely use them again!!!! 🐾💕🐶🫶🏻🐾”
“I am new to the area, and Chelsie was very close by. She responded promptly and communicated clearly. I brought Riley over, and Chelsie kindly met me at the car. I was having some difficulty with the long lead, and Riley immediately went up to her as if they had known each other for a long time. When Riley heard the dogs barking inside the house, she led Chelsie to the door, which was quite charming. I realized I forgot to mention something to Chelsie, but she responded right away. On my way back to pick up Riley, I got caught in traffic, so Chelsie graciously brought Riley out to me, and Riley happily got into the car without any issues. After we returned home, I noticed that Riley's card was filled out, and there was a detailed note, along with photos of Riley's day, showing that she had gone for a walk and played with her dogs. Overall, I would rate the experience as excellent, and Riley will definitely be visiting again.”
About: We lost our 15 year old border collie last November and are looking to welcome some furry friends to our home. Between my husband and I one of us is home at least 4 out of 5 days a week. We have 2 teenagers as well that are looking forward to meeting new pets and helping out with pet sitting. Your pet will get lots of attention while staying in our home! We have open availability to board animals on weekdays and weekends. One of us should be at the home with your animal at all times, so no need to worry about them being lonely! We do not have a fenced yard but have plenty of grass in our front yard for your animal to explore while supervised, and plenty of people to give good walks between the 4 of us!
“We sent our high-energy dog to Toni for a full 12 hours and she was so easy to communicate with and super flexible with scheduling. The peace of mind to know that she was cared for and got a walk in during the day was wonderful. Highly recommend Toni for any doggy daycare needs!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bloomington
Our collie, Ellie, has really enjoyed Dana’s daycare twice per week for last few months. Each day she comes home a very tired and happy girl. There have been several times where Dana has gone above & beyond to help us in a bind. Ellie is very well cared for whenever she’s in Dana’s care.
Mollie is a star! She was luckily able to help us in a pinch and is clearly so good at dogs. My girl was really anxious going in, and Mollie let us take time to get her acclimated to sweet Hattie and her new hangout spot for the day. Best Rover experience in a long time.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Bloomington is $39 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $56 per day. 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 October 2026, there are 1,685 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Bloomington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Bloomington commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 1,685 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MN. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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 .
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 , 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 .
