Tom was great with our labs! They had a blast and had lots of room to run and play and swim! They had their own little vacation while we were away. He’s great at communicating and pictures.

Sophia was very kind and welcoming of our pup. We received pics and updates throughout her doggy daycare experience. I felt that our dog was well cared for and loved during her stay.

Karlee was great with Douglas! She was willing to take him for the day with just hours notice! Karlee sent pictures throughout the day to let me know how Douglas was doing. I would definitely recommend her and use her services again in the future.

Christina was super professional and loving and caring with our dog Riley! This was the first time ever leaving him with someone other than family and we were very glad we found Christina! She has lots of room for wooded walks, and an indoor and outdoor play area. We hope to bring Riley back soon so he can start thinking of her and the other dogs as a great play date and extended community of loving care!

Kristi was super nice to host my puppy with such short notice! And she showed how much she cares since the very beginning, introducing him to the other dogs to sure everything would run smoothly. She’s a very nice lady, very communicative, took some nice pictures and took really good care of my puppy! He loved his stay and her other dogs, came back home happy and tired. I definitely recommend her!

About: As animal enthusiasts, your pets happiness and health is our passion! Your pet will receive personalized care and attention just as it does when home with you (no kenneling here). Walks, belly rubs, playing/chasing after balls, brushing, relaxing, all come with no extra charge! We understand how stressful a kennel environment can be on your pet, especially smaller and older dogs. Most often your dog will be the only dog that stays with us when visiting. I take special care in making sure the dogs are compatible. Even though we don't have a fenced in yard, your dog will be personally walked by me many times throughout the day. I know when your dog has gone to the bathroom and not left unsupervised outside for hours (or with other dogs). Why your Pet will love it here: -it's a calm/relaxed home environment, they will feel safe (no stress of other dogs) -they will get LOTS of attention all throughout the day (I'm home all day) and feel loved -same routine as home (feeding, walks, potty breaks) so they know what to expect We are animal lovers so we enjoy pet care, we have 3 cats. We enjoy having dogs visit and stay with us, it gives us the opportunity to help families who need care for their beloved pet and a chance for us to pamper a dog for a few days and enjoy them! We do not have any dogs so it’s most likely your dog will be the only one staying with us, we like calm, low key environments so your dog can be relaxed and feel safe.

About: Hi! I’m Kelsey, a stay-at-home mom to two wonderful boys who love helping give dogs plenty of attention and affection. What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience and approach to individualized care. I’ve spent several years working as an assistant manager at a large dog daycare and boarding facility, caring for dogs of all breeds, energy levels, and personalities. That experience taught me that every dog is unique some thrive in social, busy environments, while others do best in a calmer, quieter setting. I intentionally keep a small number of dogs in my care at one time so I can provide individualized attention and maintain a calm, comfortable environment. This also allows me to carefully match compatible dogs for safe, positive socialization and play. For dogs who enjoy the company of others, they’ll have opportunities to interact and make new friends. If your dog prefers their own space, needs a slower introduction, or does best with limited interaction, I’m happy to accommodate that as well. My goal is to create an experience that best suits each dog's unique personality and needs. In our home, your pet will be treated like family. I’m home throughout the day, so they’ll receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection whether that’s playtime in the yard, a relaxing nap, or lots of cuddles 💕 We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor fun, and I also have a gentle, well-socialized German Shepherd who loves other dogs. If your dog prefers space or a slower introduction, I can easily accommodate that to make sure they feel comfortable and secure.

About: No matter the breed or age of the dogs I have cared for, one thing remains the same - the love and affection they always share. I have over 25 years of experience caring for families' dogs and sometimes cats. I work remotely full-time from my home and am also able to work full-time from your home with Wifi. I am available to care for your pup(s) any day of the week. I have a large yard and will personally walk your dog in the yard as often as needed with a leash. I am available to take your dog for longer walks at least twice a day. I have a large indoor crate and dog beds if needed.

About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.

We have had our dog Stella stay at Linnea's home about 10 times now. She is very well taken care of and very tired when she gets home from doggy daycare. She gets to play with other dogs in their fenced in back yard. Nothing makes her happier!!

About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds and sizes, making sure they receive the attention, exercise, and love they need. My experience includes dog walking, sitting, feeding, administering medications, and providing basic training. I am skilled in reading body language and am patient and compassionate when it comes to each dog’s unique needs. Whether it’s an energetic puppy needing a long walk or a senior dog requiring more gentle care, I am able to fit the dog’s individual requirements. I’m also experienced in managing feeding schedules, maintaining a safe environment, and ensuring pets are engaged and happy while their owners are away. I am currently taking College classes online. I’m pretty open to any anytime during the day throughout the week! I am also able to work early morning or late nights too. I understand how important it is to ensure a safe, comfortable, and trustworthy environment for your pet. Whether I’m caring for them in my own home or yours, I prioritize their well being at all times. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room! I create a secure and comfortable space for them. My home is pet friendly and pet proofed, with all potential hazards removed to ensure your pet’s safety. I have 2 friendly dogs a golden doodle and shit tzu that get along great with anyone. I believe in building trust with both you and your pet!

Thomas provided excellent care for our 2 dogs. We have a senior lab and a wheaten terrier who is an anxious type so not an easy pair. The house and yard are set up great for dog care and Thomas has a great way with the dogs I will definitely bring them back.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Zimmerman

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Zimmerman on Rover is $36.63 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 510 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Zimmerman. 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 Zimmerman 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 510 sitters in Zimmerman, 84% 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.
