1. Susan O.
“Susan is the best!! My one year old border collie mix absolutely loves going to her house, she always comes home happy and tired! My pup is high energy and has a few weird quirks that Susan handles with ease. She keeps me updated, quickly responds to questions/requests and gives my pup lots of love. I can’t recommend Susan more!”
2. Rose V.
“Rose was great with our little dog last month. He immediately warmed up to her. She has a big, beautiful backyard that is a peaceful place for little dogs to roam and explore. She communicated well with us while we were traveling and sent cute photos. He was in good hands. Thank you Rose!”
3. Nava A.
“Yuvashree took great care of dog Hira. She was very responsive and sent me regular updates about Hira’s stay. She took special care of our dog and made sure her needs were met. I would recommend Yuvashree to any clients for boarding and petsitting needs.”
4. Alexa M.
“Theo loves staying with Alexa, she was a huge help when I had to leave town last minute. Will definitely be booking every time I leave town :)”
5. Brandy C.
“Brandy was amazing with Garfunkel, sending pictures and updates. It was obvious he was very comfortable with the stay and had a blast (and passed out the entire first day back from all the fun he had).”
6. Chris N.
“Chris was amazing! We recently moved to Austin and needed to boarded our sweet boy for a few days. We had some anxiety about leaving him with someone who we didn’t know. Chris helped ease our concerns with his care and communication. You can tell he really loves doggies. We would use him again!”
7. Lisa B.
“Lisa was amazing! Our dogs struggle with some separation anxiety and don’t fall in the "easy" category and she took them on with such a loving approach. She was patient with them and very communicative with us as owners. We are so very grateful to have met Lisa!! 5+++++ stars.”
8. Manuela Diaz H.
“Manuela was lovely! Great communication, I got videos of my pup every day, and she sent us home with treats. Phoebe is shy and takes a minute to warm up, but she was in love with Manuela by the end of her stay. Will definitely return!”
9. Ryan P.
“Definitely would recommend Ryan and will board with him again! He was super flexible with pick-up and drop-off times which was greatly appreciated. He sent lots of photos and videos everyday and took our dog to the dog park and on walks daily. Thanks Ryan!!”
10. Asha C.
“Asha is great at tending to pups and always made me feel aware and connected to what they were doing or how my pup was feeling. While traveling, Asha asked for all the details about my pups needs, wants, and comfort and respected those bounds throughout her stay. Bonus benefit is she made friends with Asha’s pup Carl! Appreciate all the pictures, updates, and glad she had a great stay!”
11. Tyler E.
“Tyler was fantastic with my dog, Monti. He took the time to read all the notes I left about her, communicated well during her stay including sending photos, and generally took really great care of her. Would 100% recommend Tyler”
12. Lily B.
“Lily was great. She was very nurturing and fun. Her place was very clean and she was very friendly. She took great care of mochi and was very responsive and sent daily photos and updates. Would use her again!”
13. Johnny M.
“Everything was great 😊 My dog seems like she feels at home with Johnny and his dog! Love getting the pupdates of her playing at the dog park or relaxing on the dog bed and knowing she’s being taken care of while I’m away 🐶”
14. 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!”
15. Catherine E.
“Catherine and Nelson take exceptional care of Fitz when he is there and are very safety conscious which I appreciate! I can always count on great care from them! They will send me multiple updates a day. I can fully trust that I am leaving Fitz in great care. Thank you Catherine and Nelson for caring for Fitz like he is your own!”
16. 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!”
17. Noelle & Angel H.
“Fran had the best time ever at Noelle and Angel’s house!!! We could not have asked for a better situation. We got so many videos of her playing in the yard with their pups and getting so many cuddles. She will be back to stay sometime soon! ❤️❤️”
18. Angelique M.
“I have been using Rover for roughly a year now and I have to say my experience with Angelique is by far the best I’ve had yet. She sent me so many pictures and videos along with text updates on how Duchess was doing. Duchess had a wonderful time with her! ? Angelique is fantastic and will absolutely be my first choice the next time I need someone to take care of Duchess. I highly recommend leaving your loved one in her care!”
19. 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!”
20. Assenett A.
“They are wonderful! They truly love dogs and were so very sweet to my Willie. And they sent lots of updates and photos and just took great care of my Willie! So kind and loving.”

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.
