“Brody was just fantastic with our little pup, Zoey, a 10 month old Golden Retriever. His property is great, huge fenced in grass yard for the pups to play. Brody is readily responsive and available and easy to work with. He's clearly a dog-lover. Zoey was incredibly happy, clean and well-fed when we picked her up. Couldn't recommend Brody strongly enough; we'll definitely be back.”
“Toni is fantastic. She went over and above to make sure that our senior dog had the best care - giving her meds and lots of extra snuggles. She provided lots of updates and photos throughout our time away. We highly recommend Toni!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Alyssa and her husband Brian! They are sweet, welcoming, and their property is stunning and perfect for pets. They took such great care of our dog Mona and sent us so many pictures and videos throughout her stay. She had so much fun she didn’t want to leave. We would not hesitate to book with them again.”
“Linsey has been a dream dog-sitter! She and her family invited my miniature dachshund/chichuahua mutt, Lodi in and made him part of their family. She sent pictures and notes keeping me updated on how he was doing! I can’t recommend Kinsey highly enough.”
“This was our first time leaving our pup “away from home “ and we were a bit concerned how things would go. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the care and attention Katie and Jeremy provided. Katie gave us multiple updates each day and sent several photos and videos highlighting just how much fun our girl was having. We will definitely have them watch our girl in the future.”
“I have never felt better leaving my dog at someone’s home. Joe was so communicative and kind, and just truly loves animals. I have a young, energetic German Shepard puppy so he can definitely be a handful, but he had such an amazing time playing with the other dogs, and I could tell he was being well cared for! Thanks Joe & Andrea!”
“Kristin is wonderful! I adopted Daisy about a month before I had to leave town for some family obligations. Daisy is a very sweet dog but she was found as an abandoned stray and was understandably extremely anxious. Kristin has worked with shelter dogs and dogs with separation anxiety. She was the perfect person to care for Daisy …and for me as well! Kristin knew leaving Daisy was stressful for me and sent me photos and videos of Daisy. Staying with Kristin was a very positive experience for Daisy in many ways! She is less anxious and more confident. Thank you very much!!”
“Courtney was great! She was super helpful in helping me book a last minute boarding. She communicated well, sent lots of pictures and updates, and David seemed to have a great time!”
“Sarah watched our dog for two nights while we stayed at the Grove Park Inn. This was a great option since the hotel pet fee was $350! Thank you, Sarah, for caring for our pup!”
“Connie & Her husband were excellent! They know how each dog has a unique personality & work with it. Also, they try to keep dogs in the same size range at the same time so that’s reassuring as most pet hotels leave them all together. We got to see & meet our pup’s housemates for the weekend & got updates via pics, msg, & videos. We will definitely be booking with them again as Maggie seemed completely content with her stay.”
“Jen was wonderful. Went out of her way to make sure the dog would be safe and happy. Bought her a toy, walked her a bunch and sent her home happy and worn out from playing. She was a lovely person, easy to correspond with, and took great care of Flora. Thank you, Jen!”
“Rick loves dogs and takes good care of them. This was the first time my dog had stayed with someone she didn't know but he knew what to do and gave her lots of love. Poppy looks forward to staying with him again.”
“I am officially a repeat customer! Caroline is easy to work with and flexible when things need to change. I feel very comfortable leaving my doggie with her and her family.”
“I cannot recommend Kali for you enough! SHE IS A GEM! My first time sitting my dog was a terrible experience and I was terrified to sit him again but a family emergency popped up and I came across her profile. Her house is clean and she was so nice during the meet and greet, my dog Smokie adores her. Not only did she go over plans on what to do with Smokie while we were away but wrote down a detailed list of everything we told her which sits out in her home in case an emergency happened on her end that anyone coming to watch her own dogs and our dog would know exactly what he needed. She also provided us with all of her emergency contacts so we knew anyone who may be in her home. She also has close contact with the vets in the area if something should happen with our pet. She is amazingly organized and prepared. The dogs have plenty of space to roam and she even had a quiet room for the dogs that can’t roam if she had to pop out of the house and can’t bring the dogs. I will never even consider another sitter after booking with her because they all pale in comparison!”
“Erin took great care of our sweet dog, Lily. She was easy to communicate with, replied quickly, and sent pictures to let us know how much fun Lily was having playing in the river with Erin. I will be using her again, soon, and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I have experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs and sick/disabled dogs. I can administer medication, if needed. My dogs are our family members and yours will be treated the same. I am currently working from home so your pet won’t be left home alone for very long periods. I am available during the week and weekends including holidays. I have two very sweet and mellow Cavalier King Charles Spaniels to keep your doggie company. They will have access to 2 separate fenced in areas, one with a doggie door. Your dog can be crated or not and are welcome on the furniture with our dogs. Ours sleep in an x-pen together but your dog can sleep where ever it prefers. I want them to be comfortable like it is their own home.
“While visiting Asheville, we needed someone to take care of Happy meanwhile we had dinner at a not pet-friendly restaurant -- and we were very pleased with all the love (and message update) Terri gave our furry daughter. We dropped off and pick up Happy at Terri's farm, and get to know two of her beautiful dogs.”
“Hope and her family are animal lovers and it shows. They were flexible about drop off and pickup times and weren't offended when I asked for a meet and greet before leaving our dog.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 333 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Old Fort. 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.
89% of Old Fort 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 Old Fort 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 Old Fort 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 Old Fort.
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 Old Fort 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.
