1. Susan O.
“Susan was great! Really easy to schedule with and took really good care of Ruby. She took her for a trip to Redbud which totally got her over any separation anxiety. She also had a few other dogs there which gave her some playmates to help dispel her energy. Definitely planning to have Ruby stay withSusan again!”
2. 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!”
3. Manuela Diaz H.
“Could not have asked for a better dog sitter! She was so sweet, sent me multiple updates each day, and was always quick to respond to me. If I could give Manuela 10 stars out of 5, I would!”
4. Rose V.
“Rose and her home are a great place for Paxton! Rose is attentive and kind. Paxton loved staying with her and making friends with her little chihuahua. Rose was very helpful with making sure Paxton ate his medicine daily. We can’t wait for Paxton to stay with her again the next time we are traveling. Thank you, Rose!”
5. Brandy C.

7. Johnny M.
“Johnny was amazing!! He took really great care of my dog. She got plenty of exercise with lots of other dogs and she loved Nelson. Johnny was very responsive and accommodating, and sent some really cute pictures!”
8. Tyler E.
“Tyler is a fantastic dog sitter! He treated my dog Maggie with the utmost respect and care. He sent regular updates about her. Pictures and videos of the two of them which was very cute to see them getting along so well. He was very responsive and followed the information that was left in Maggie’s profile to a T. He will go above and beyond for your pet. Maggie found her second home and I couldn’t be happier! If you ever need a sitter I would 100% recommend Tyler! I will definitely be re-booking the next time I am in need of a sitter. Thank you, Tyler!”
9. Regan & James R.
“Regan and James did a wonderful job taking care of my boy while I was away! He can be anxious in new spaces and they were very patient and sent me many pictures. Thank you both so much!”
10. Alexa M.
“I had a great experience with Alexa! Quick replies and clear communication throughout the whole process. She also sent pics during the stay which were appreciated. My dog seemed very comfortable with her and came back tired from lots of play. Highly recommend for a seamless Rover experience.”
11. Lisa B.
“Lisa did a great job taking care of our dog Ares, had good communication, and sent me a lot of pictures during his stay. I couldn’t be more happy with her services, because our dog is difficult and not everybody takes care of him. Your dog is in good hands if you need Lisa and her husband!! Thank you so much!! We appreciate it a lot 🤗👌🫶”
12. Lily B.
“Lily was awesome with our little boy, Bando. She constantly sent us pictures and updated us on how Bando was adjusting. Bando will definitely be seeing Lily again next time we leave town!”

14. 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!”
15. Ryan P.
“I've had Ryan dog sit for Ponyo several times now! He is really quick with communicating, always friendly and respectful, and just a great responsible dog owner and dog sitter. Ponyo is always sad when we leave Ryan's house because he has a blast over there. They go on daily walks and play together or with other dogs and Ryan's dog Fritz is a sweetheart too! Highly recommend!”
16. 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! ❤️❤️”
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. Jenny K.
“Best experience I’ve had yet !! Loved the service. The updates was amazing. Will be booking with her again soon!!”
19. Chris R.
“Chris did a great job caring for my puppy Charlie while I was on vacation. He sent me frequent updates, photos, and videos. I will definitely be using Chris again in the future!”
20. 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!”

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.
