Bogarde is the third new arrival at the club this week, following the signings of defender Jack Hunt and midfielder Harvey Vale on loan from Chelsea.
"We are all delighted to have Lamy back," said Rovers boss Joey Barton., external
"This is a chance for him to really kick on and show his talent. Hopefully we can reap the benefit of that this season."
Bogarde made his Villa debut in an FA Cup tie against Liverpool at the age of just 17 but has yet to feature in the Premier League.
