“Holly is great with my dog! She’s been walking her and my dog just had her first overnight stay with Holly. I trust her and she cares for my dog as she would her own. I Highly recommended her!”

“Chino was well taken care of while I was away. Chino is shy and when I picked her up she did not seem shy at all with them, especially with Shannon's lovely daughter. I would recommend her and she also has a privacy fence surrounding her backyard, which put me at ease also.I would definitely ask for her services again!”

“Brittany is EXACTLY what my senior dog needed. She met all his needs plus some and understood all his quirks. Even gave him a bath with a bonus bandana before pickup ?. She was able to feed him medicine and carry him up/down stairs. Very accomadable to providing him comfort with his multiple beds, blankets and pillows. Her family and children reacted well and she sent plenty of updates, pictures and videos to make me feel at ease. I have full confidence that any pet will feel welcome in her cozy log cabin home sitting on a couple acres with plenty of grass area for them to run and play. Brittany was able to provide constant supervision for my dementia boy who panics when alone. He had no anxiety while with her and didn't even care that I left, he felt right at home with Brittany. So glad she was available and local to home, it was a yuge relief!!”
“Ashley was great! Chang looked like he was having a great time in his pictures that she sent to me. I’m very appreciative of her being comfortable with Chang being old and having several issues. I will definitely be using her again!”

“Kendra was great with my girl! Nova who is always nervous at first adjusted quite quickly and Kendra was great about keeping me updated on how she was doing. I would definitely book with Kendra again - thank you for giving me peace of mind!”


“Danielle was awesome! She went above and beyond for Zuri. She sent check ins like pictures and videos. I love that she communicated with us each day. Seems like Zuri enjoyed her stay and we're most definitely looking forward to next time!”

“Angela and her family are awesome! Our dog loves going over there and is always treated well. They follow our house rules such as not getting on the furniture, and they share stories about the funny stuff our dog does during the stay. Highly recommend!!”

“They were great very professional and reasonable. They also send pictures and videos and respond back very fast. Had a great experience with them my dog didn’t want to come back home.”

“Our bernedoodle loved staying with Sierra! She has a large fenced yard for dogs to run and play in. Izzy was sad when she came back home and did not have any children to play with anymore. We knew Izzy was in good hands while we were away!”


“Jaclyn was THE best! On top of a great family, sweet pup, and awesome family... she kept me updated on how the stay was going and loved on my dog like it was their own. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”

“I have used Dara multiple times and she has always been great. My girls love when she drops in for a visit or an overnight stay at her house while I'm away. My dogs are in good hands.”

“Heather has kept my beagle, King, twice now and did an awesome job. She sent lots of pictures and updates so I knew was King having a good time. She gave King really good baths, I don’t know that he is ever been that clean. Heather will be our go to sitter in the future, highly recommend booking with her.”

“What a relief to find Tammy through Rover! Our sweet min Schnauzer had a great stay with Ms. Tammy for an extended time we had to be away. She was thorough, and sent us an update & pics each day we were away. I knew our pup was doing great. She got to go on walks, play and she ate well the entire stay. In other words, Tammy spoiled her like we do! We will not hesitate to call on Tammy again for her excellent care for our fur baby. They bonded well and it was a great week where I did not have to worry one bit. Thanks, Tammy!!”

“All I can say is that I didn’t know Georgie could possibly be more spoiled than he already was but he is and that is a good thing! Made the entire trip away perfect knowing he was being so loved. Anyone who adores their dog and considers them their baby and not just a pet, do not hesitate to trust Toni to care for them.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Forest City on Rover is $48.36 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 249 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Forest City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
85% of Forest City sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Forest City landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Forest City home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Forest City.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Forest City sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
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 NC 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
