“Came down to Texas for the business meeting. Asha is sweat and friendly, kept on posting pictures of Brie while the entire meeting so I was able to focus on work. Thank you so much for all kindness!”
2. Lily B.
“Lily is the best! We usually book with her for weekends or just a couple days but recently had her watch our dog for 8 nights and it was awesome. She sends picture & updates daily and our dog loves her”
3. Susan O.
“Susan was awesome! We were so grateful to find someone who had experience and a heart for our senior dog. It's clear that she is a dog lover and was ready to do what it takes to take care of our old guy. We definitely recommend her!”
4. Manuela Diaz H.
“Manuela was amazing!! She was so understanding of the anxiety someone will feel leaving their pup with a new person and took whatever steps to make me feel more comfortable. We met both virtually and in-person (to introduce Moose and her dog, Morgan) before I dropped him off for the weekend. She sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout the weekend of him playing and cuddling with Morgan. She also was very flexible and helpful when I needed to rearrange my plans due to a travel issue. I'd give 6 stars if I could :)”

7. James T.
“James was great! I could tell Apollo was having a good time and was in a great mood when I picked him up. It seems like his dog and mine became best friends. Would be my first choice for dog sitting services”
8. Brandy C.

9. Rose V.
“Rose ALWAYS takes the best care of my mini golden doodle/cocker spaniel and he adores her. He gets plenty of outdoor and sprinkler time and we always rest easy knowing he’s in good hands”
10. Chris N.
“I have been having challenges trying to find a dog sitter that didn't accept larger dogs because one of my small dogs loves to attack larger dogs! When I walked in I was so happy to find the perfect place for my small dogs and I could tell they were happy too! Normally one of my dogs gets scared when I leave him and he seemed fine with the situation. All went well - would definitely recommend Chris for your next pup stay!”
11. Lisa B.
“Lisa was a great host, Andie had a great time with her! Her house and yard was perfect for Andie to run around, and I appreciated the pictures and updates throughout the week.”
12. Catherine E.
“Catherine was great with my dog Mia. She took care of my 4-legged baby like it was her own. Sent lots of pictures which made me very confortable leaving Mia with her. First time using Rover and Catherine and will definitely be a repeater.”
13. Ryan P.
“Ryan and Val watched our furbaby while we were out of town. They sent plenty of photos and updates. They were also super flexible for pick up when our flight was delayed. We feel so lucky to have found them in Austin. Will definitely use them the next time we have a trip.”
14. Noelle & Angel H.
“Noelle and Angel are the best! ❤️ Our pup Rue can be nervous around people and I wasn't sure how she would handle her first time away from home, but she quickly warmed up to them and became best buds! They also have a large backyard that is perfect for zoomies and sniffing around. Noelle and Angel treated Rue with such love and I got lots of pics and videos of Rue living her best life. They are also very responsible and communicative. I'll definitely book them for any future dog sitting needs!”
15. Jean-Paul & Andrea H.
“Jean-Paul was so communicative and so very helpful! Edison (who can be pretty grumpy) seemed very content and happy while he was at their house, and i got load of photos and information. I would absolutely use these guys again to watch our dog!”
16. Vi N.
“We dropped off Toby with Vi and I instantly felt like he would be a good fit. He saw another dog and started to pull but she was unphased since she previously had a Dane. I loved getting updates on Toby about his walks and photos of his sploot. I will definitely book again.”
17. Melissa M.
“Melissa was AMAZING! I can’t say enough how happy we were with her. Our dog, Arya, got along well with her sweet pup, Mika. Melissa sent me daily updates - once in the morning and once in the evening - letting me know how Arya was doing. Melissa went above and beyond to make sure Arya was comfortable during her stay. She took Arya on daily walks with Mika, and I loved hearing how the two pups had plenty of play time. She’s become a quick favorite. I know Arya already misses her, and we can’t wait to book with Melissa again!”
18. Regan & James R.
“Thank you so much for the great care you took of Friday. We appreciated all the pictures and videos— looked like she had a great time! Will definitely rebook with you in future. Thanks again!”
19. Assenett A.
“Assenett and her family were everything I could’ve wanted and more to care for my baby while I was gone! When I did the meet and greet, I instantly fell in love with the family and felt very comfortable leaving my dog with them for 12 days. My dog is very attached to me and not used to staying with other people, but they were so nurturing and sweet that he instantly bonded with their daughter and everyone else in the family. I received multiple pictures of every feeding, every walk, and snuggles and playtime every single day! As excited as my dog was to see me when I picked him up, you could tell that he loved his time with them, and was sad to leave. I am so excited to have found someone so wonderful to take care of Rocky next time I need some help!”
20. Ryan U.
“Ryan was amazing with my little chihuahua. She was so thorough making sure she knew every detail and need. She sent TONS of photos and videos which made me feel so comfortable and confident he was in great hands while I was away.”

Why do dog owners love Austin?
The capital of Texas, the 11th most populous city in the United States, and the home of keeping things weird, Austin is a unique and vibrant city that attracts people from all over the country. Home to the Texas State Capitol, the Bob Bullock Texas History Museum, the University of Texas at Austin, and the Darrell K Royal - Texas Memorial Stadium, it's got plenty of great landmarks to enjoy. And with tons of great parks, amazing Tex-Mex and Texas barbecue restaurants - plus over 1,000 operating food trucks - and an eclectic live music scene, Austin is a destination city not just to visit but to live in, especially for dog owners and pet parents. This city of 931,830 people regularly shows up on lists of the most dog-friendly cities in America and features great dog boarding options like Rover available throughout the city.
Why choose Rover dog boarding in Austin?
In-home dog boarding in Austin is a great option for most dog owners. With Rover, instead of going to an unknown large facility, your dog stays in the comfort of your dog sitter's home. Your dog gets to spend one-on-one time with a loving sitter who'll treat them like part of their family.
What are some great parks in Austin for dog walks?
Austin is absolutely full of great dog parks. With at least 16 parks to visit with your pup, there are acres and acres of green space and off-leash areas to explore and enjoy. Parks like the 13-acre Red Bud Isle feature a wide expanse of open area where your dog can play with other dogs and swim off leash. The park at Mills Pond, accessible from the north end of Wells Port Drive or off Bratton Lane, offers a chance to take your dog for a lovely stroll and watch the locals do some fishing in the early morning or evening. Also, be sure to check out Auditorium Shores (between the former Palmer Auditorium and the shores of Lady Bird Lake), and not just for the doggy showers after your pup takes a dip. The park is also a place for outdoor concerts, and you can even find a memorial statue of Stevie Ray Vaughan.
What Austin neighborhoods are good for dogs and pet parents?
There's so much to enjoy in Austin, including a quirky collection of neighborhoods, each with their own appeal. Take Central Austin neighborhood Hyde Park, which dates back to 1891 and is considered Austin's first suburb. You're more likely to find cute bakeries - including the Eater.com-approved Quack's 43rd St Bakery, home to massive cookies and incredible cakes - and nice neighbors than noisy bars or loud nightlife there. Same for Barton Hills, which might just be the best place in Austin to raise a dog. Bordering Lady Bird Lake, the neighborhood features Zilker Metropolitan Park and tons of lush green spaces to spend time out in nature with your pup. Barton Creek runs through the whole neighborhood, lending a feeling of always being out in nature. You can check out an authentic corner of Austin in Clarksville. West of downtown Austin, right near the always entertaining 6th Street and bordering the Johnson Creek Greenbelt, it's home to Treaty Oak, a state landmark as well as the first Whole Foods Market, originally opened in 1979 as the Clarksville Natural Grocery.
