“Yuliya is such a good sitter. Great communication on dates and pickup times. Toby loves going over and very tired after playing so much. And our family can't wait to see the fun pictures each time!”
“Our pup had a great time in Lori’s home for the day! We received photos of his adventures and updates throughout. Our 6 month old pup was a huge fan of Lori’s home, bunny, kids and pup! Thank you so much!”
“We were traveling to the area with our sweetie Toto. I was running a charity event near Dee Dee and she was able to take care of Toto while I was busy so she didn’t have to sit alone in the hotel. Dee Dee was very flexible and had very good communication! I got fun photos and reports about Toto throughout the door through the app straight to my phone. And I knew Toto was happy, cared for and safe. Thank you so much! We will definitely be repeats next time we add in the area❤️”
“I feel so fortunate to have found Megan! Having my dog cared for in a home environment makes such a difference. She is incredibly flexible with scheduling, which has given my dog plenty of opportunities for activity, attention, and play throughout the day. Her kids are also such a wonderful asset—they add even more love, energy, and companionship to the experience. Communication is top tier plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day!”
“Nickolai was very responsive & communicative. I was able to book last minute with him -for the next day! My pup was greeted with a treat which was a great sign! I also received photos throughout his stay which certainly gave me peace of mind. Bruno came home tuckered out and ready to chill, which is great because mom is ready to chill too after a long day of work. He will certainly be back if I am working in the area again! 😊”
“Darcie was quick to respond with our request. She also walked and played with Louie while providing updates and photos throughout the day. We would highly recommend Darcie and her family!”
About: Hi! I am a dependable, experienced pet lover who treats every animal like family. I grew up on a farm with 3 boxers, so caring for animals has always been a part of my life. As an adult, I have had a Boston Terrier, two French Bulldogs (one is still with me at home), several cats, lizards, fish, and I currently care for a Koi pond-so I am very comfortable with a wide range of animal personalities and needs. I work from home, which means your dog will get plenty of supervision and attention throughout the day. I have a very friendly French Bulldog named Bubble (age 7), who loves having visitors, plus a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I am close to several walking paths near a lake, and dogs are allowed all throughout my home. I know firsthand how hard it is to leave your pet when you're busy or away-I've been there myself while working long hours in the office plus having to commute. That is why I am committed to making sure your pet feels safe, loved and engaged. I promise to keep them happy, healthy, and having fun while they are in my care. I offer walks, daycare, and overnight stays in my home. I am happy to follow your pet's routine closely. I can also handle feeding schedules, basic medications, and provide regular updates with photos so you always feel connected and know what is going on. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities-and I truly enjoy building trust with both pets and their owners. I would love to meet you and your pet! I work from home with a very flexible schedule. I am home most of the day already with my dog -unless having to run errands. The same holds true if I am watching your pet. I will be around the house with your pet all day! I have a 2 floor home, fenced back yard, small shallow koi pond, doggy door, and gates at the top of the stairs for pets.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. Growing up with a father who was a veterinarian, I learned early how to care for pets, rescue animals, and stay calm in unexpected situations. I’m a Science Teacher with years of experience working with children, including those with special needs. My career has taught me patience, responsibility, and attention to detail, qualities I bring to every pet I care for. With a background in dentistry and a genuine love for dogs, I’ll treat your pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work full-time as a middle school science teacher, but I’m currently on summer break and have a very flexible schedule. During the summer, I’m available throughout the day to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and companionship. Once school resumes, I’m available on evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard and a safe, secure home where dogs can relax, play, and feel comfortable. All outdoor time is supervised, and I carefully follow each dog’s routine, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I provide plenty of love, attention, and regular photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is in caring and responsible hands.
“I have no idea where to start with this review! Adam and Leang are such a wonderful couple and they were so good with Lilo. They sent me photos and videos to see how she was doing throughout the day which definitely made me feel at ease and you can definitely tell they love and care for their animals since they treated mine like their own. After our meet and greet Lilo was so excited to see her new friends the next day and passed out after her day was done. I will definitely be using them again!”
“Cleo had a great time with Timmothy!! I loved his updates through the day and he asked many questions beforehand to make sure he understood how to care for her :)”
About: As a current dog owner (Rosita, 30lbs), and having had dogs of my own in the past (Scooby & Walnut), I completely understand that special connection of owning a pet. They become more than just a pet, they're family. We only accept one client at a time to ensure 100% care to your pet’s needs. My husband (Andrew) and I both currently work remotely so your pet would have my full attention and the schedule flexibility. My husband Andrew & I are the only humans who live in this house (no children). As a current dog owner myself, I have experience with pet care. I also understand special needs to your furry friend. I can relate because my last doggo, Walnut had a chronic condition that required her to take medication daily, so I have experience with oral medical administration. Be assured that I will welcome your dog the same way I'd welcome anyone into my home. I'd cater to their needs and make sure the dog is enjoying their stay or visit with me! I am organized and responsible but caring at the same time. Thank you!
“Gabby loved her day care days here! The yard and neighborhood are great for her squirrel and bunny hunting needs! :) I felt like Gabby was well cared for and well-loved during her stay. She is excited to go back!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and other pets for years and truly enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs, and I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own while they’re in my care I currently work fully remote as a case manager. I have a flexible schedule and can make plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, drop-in visits, and walks during the week and on weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine. I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and normal routine. I’ll follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely and make sure pets get plenty of attention and supervision. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable while your pet is in my care.
“Joey is great! I never worry about my dog when he stays there. He was so excited to go when he did day care and would run to the door when we arrived. Definitely recommend.”
“Julie was amazing and I would highly recommend her and her sweet family to watch any dog. I got the best photo updates throughout the day which made my life much more seamless. Great communication and prompt responses.”
“Our standard poodle loved his 4 days of day care with Sonja and Adam and their 2 dogs! Super quick responses, flexibility, and wonderful care and attention to our dog. We will definitely be back!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Hamel is $39 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $50 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 1,681 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Hamel. 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 Hamel 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 1,681 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
