“June is always super excited to be dropped off to play with Mckenzie and her dogs! Mckenzie has been wonderful with our 5 month old pup and its been so reassuring to leave June with someone who we know loves dogs as much as we do and also has the skills and knowledge on managing different ages and varying dog’s behaviors! She is very communicative and prompt with her replies and she has always been loving and patient with our dog!”

“I've worked with River a couple times now. She's a fantastic person, very accommodating, and my dog Drake always comes home happy and worn out! Her dog Luther is very sweet. She surprised me by sending a video of the two of them playing in her yard. She's outstanding and I can't recommend her highly enough!”


“Howie took great care of Sully. When I initially dropped him off he took the time to ask questions and get to know my dog. Sully came home pooped out from walking and playing all day. We will be booking again!”

“Steven & Diane continue to get to know my dog Alice in a personal way. They pay attention to her needs and our excellent communicators with me. Alice will be staying with them for 10 days and I am certain she will have an excellent time!”

“Catherine was amazing! She was able to accommodate a very short-notice request for daycare for our toy poodle puppy. He had a fabulous time! We can't thank her enough and are already looking forward to future play dates.”

Your pet will be in the best hands with me as I have been know to spoil them!! You can always rely on me for your pets needs. I work from home full-time. I am always around on the weekend. I am up early in the mornings. I go for multiple walks a day. I will take your pet for multiple walks a day, if I go anywhere I will take your pet with me if they like car rides. I don't have a fenced yard. I do walk several times a day.
“Everything with Lisa worked out great! She was flexible with drop off and pick up timing. My dog had lots of outdoor time in the fenced in backyard to run and play with Lumi and Lisa. We also received updates, photos, videos throughout the day.”


About: We are a dog-loving family, especially of the small variety! I have been taking care of dogs for most of my life and began sitting through Rover three years ago. We are a homeschool family, so my 9 and 7-year-old daughters enjoy helping with feeding, playing with, and cuddling the pups. We also have a one-year-old son, so the doggies we take must be ok with small children. Our 12-year-old Shih Tzu, Dulce, also really enjoys having doggy company, and we only accept small dogs to accommodate her. We promise to treat your sweet pup like he/she is a beloved member of the family! We homeschool so someone is usually available for a quick potty break or belly rub! Walking outdoors (in nice weather) is a favorite family activity so we try to take the dogs out daily. In the event we don’t make it out on a walk, the pups get their exercise and sniffs in by playing in the backyard. Our dog Dulce loves to have a partner in crime chasing squirrels our large fenced backyard! We are an active family with two girls (ages 9 & 7) and a 1-year-old son who also love to play and interact with the dogs. Our house has hardwood floors for easy cleaning. Guest doggies are welcome to sleep next to our bed on their doggy bed, or if they sneak up to find a cozy spot next to our feet we won’t complain!
“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.”

“First doggie sitter for our Harper and did we score big time!! Alyson is amazing. Harper came home happy and tired. It must have been a great time!! Thanks Alyson.”

About: My name is Arianna! I have worked with dogs and cats at a dog daycare/ boarding place for 6 years and have been doing rover for 2 years. I have lots of experience caring for dogs and cats of all different temperaments breeds and sizes! I have also had lots of experience giving medication to dogs and cats. I have lived with dogs and cats for about 15 years and also have experience with small animals such as guinea pigs, bunnies, ferrets, and hamsters. I have always had a love for animals and hope to become a zookeeper or zoologist in the future and I hope that this journey in working with animals will help me prepare for that! I will care for your animal(s) with love and treat them as if they were my own! I can’t wait to meet you and your furbaby! I am doing pet sitting at home full time starting September 1st so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I have a fenced in backyard so your dogs can be secure off leash for going potty and playtime. And your dogs can sleep with me in my room when it is time for bed. I have extra beds and blankets and I will ensure they are comfortable!
“Having recently moved to MN with a dog who has a challenging past and anxiety, I was initially worried for my dog, Benji. But thankfully, Benji is at complete ease thanks to Grace and Luke’s experience, care, and attention. In fact, he has so much fun and even cuddles with them! It’s clear to me that Grace and Luke go above and beyond for all the dogs who come under their care and I can’t recommend them enough. They are also just great communicators, listeners, and lovely people. Thank you so much, Grace and Luke!”

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 for Doggy Day Care in Bloomington on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,688 sitters in Bloomington, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
