“Morgan and her family cared for our elderly dog so kindly and well for 12 days. Our dog requires daily medication and uses diapers. Morgan was relaxed about all the care needed. She has experience because of all her own animals in the farm. We were able to enjoy our vacation. Thank you so much!”
“Chevy came home relaxed and happy. That speaks volumes to the level of care, attention and healthy environment that Beth provided. Her love for the pups is obvious. Beth's communications with us were quick and complete. When we cannot take Chevy with us, we are relieved to know that Chevy has a safe place to hang out. Grateful!”

“It’s an awesome feeling to meet someone who you know will take great care of your dog while you are away. I can tell Dorothy Rose really enjoyed her stay. I’ve already booked Dorothy’s next stay with Nelcy.”


“Hannah was so awesome and went above and beyond to make our golden doodle happy. We have a tall 60 lb dog and he got to run and play and rest- just what he needed. I highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! My cat was well cared for, comfortable, and treated with so much love and attention. I truly appreciated the updates and knowing that my fur baby was in good hands while I was away. It gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend their pet-sitting services and will definitely use them again!”

“Channon was so great. We left our 75 lb Pyrenees mix with Channon for two nights. Channon's dog Bizzy was the perfect playmate for our pup! She did a great job caring for him, sharing any concerns she had, and sending a video or two. We could tell that our pup was having a great time and felt very comfortable. Thank you Channon!!”

“The only thing I can say about Michelle is that she is absolutely amazing! Lorenzo has stayed with her several times now, and he absolutely loves her. It gives me such peace of mind knowing he’s with someone he knows, trusts, and is genuinely happy to see. She takes wonderful care of him and treats him like her own. ❤️ I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Lorenzo with her again and again she is truly the best! 🐾”

“Ashely did a fantastic job watching our dog, Tucker. She sent us updates and was very communicative and responsive. I would highly recommend her services to others and will definitely use again in the future.”

“Carrie is a wonderful dog sitter, she was happy to schedule a meet and great to make sure our dogs were compatible with hers and she was very accommodating with our anxious rescues needs. She sends updates and plenty of photos while they are there. Highly recommend Carrie and we will definitely use her in the future if we need someone to watch our boys!”

“Kathy was very flexible with pick up and drop off times. When I travel, its usually hectic and she was able to let me drop of 30 minutes early. She sent tons of photos and updates. Allowed my boys to have tons of playtime with her dogs. They went right to sleep once we got home. Very happy with how she treats them.”

“Maribel was amazing and made our first experience using Rover such a great one. She took the time to set up a meet and greet ahead of the stay so we could see how our dog, Dutch, would get along with her and her dog before booking, which we really appreciated. While we were away, she sent regular updates and photos, which made us feel so much more comfortable knowing Dutch was happy and well cared for. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience and would absolutely book with Maribel again.”

“Ellie and Karson welcomed our pup like he was their own! He was so happy during his stay and we were provided plenty of pictures and updates. Absolutely recommend this couple to anyone needing care for their fur-baby!”

“Christopher was incredible. I had a very last minute need to board for two days over a weekend and he was able to be extremely flexible for us. Had to drop her off late and then picked her up early due to my crazy work schedule and he was more than willing to accommodate. Will be brining my girl Zoey back to him again for sure.”

“So so glad we decided to leave our pup with Zach instead of boarding her! His place is perfect for dogs. He was super attentive towards her and sent us tons of pictures and videos all day of her playing. We have a very tired, happy pup right now and we couldn’t be more pleased!”

“Thaissa was wonderful with our two pups! They were so happy (and tired) when I picked them up. Thaissa is very organized and has a beautiful home with a fenced in backyard. She sent daily updates with photos, which gave us peace of mind that they were happy and well loved while we were gone!”

“We have left our Bernedoodle with Bryanna multiple times, and he absolutely loves it there. This past time, after we opened the car door, he sprinted up to them, and never looked back. He couldn’t have been any more excited, and that means so much to us dog parents. Bryanna is amazing with communication and daily updates. We are so thankful to have found her!”

“We felt very comfortable leaving Rusty with Brooke. She was very pleasant and seemed very interested in knowing about Rusty and was happy to comply with instructions we had because Rusty is a finicky eater. We would definitely used her as a sitter again!”


“I had a last minute trip pop up. Catie responded quick and was great to coordinate with! It was great communication all weekend. Based off of photos and my dog afterwards, I think it’s safe to say she had a great time. She loved on my dog like it was her own. I would highly recommend Catie to anyone else looking for a pet sitter.”

Morgan and her sweet family were amazing with our dogs. She kept us informed on how they were doing, along with pictures, and both dogs came back happy! The dogs loved being around the variety of animals on their farm. We will definitely have Morgan sit for our dogs in the future, and highly recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Fork is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $50 per night. 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 November 2026, there are 486 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fork. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Fork can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fork 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 Fork.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fork. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Fork 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
