11. Lisa B.
“Lisa and her husband were so great to book with! I had a work trip and my go-to rover was out of town so I had to schedule with someone new which made me nervous initially, but everything turned out wonderfully. We did a meet and greet and she was comfortable with working with my dog’s particular needs and overall temperament, especially for an older dog. She sent the cutest updates when I was gone! Once I picked my dog up, I noticed she was calm and not anxiety-ridden like she would have been with traditional boarding. Actually, it seemed like she didn’t want to leave her staycation! Would definitely book with Lisa again.”
12. Catherine E.
“Catherine and Nelson are so fantastic with our dog! They spend tons of time planting with him, and they are very sweet with him. I couldn’t recommend more!”
13. 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!”
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. 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!”

“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.”
17. Ryan P.
“Ryan was awesome with both of our girls. We were very nervous because this was our first time using Rover, Ryan came over for a meet and greet and our girls loved him, he kept us updated on them while we were gone and sent us pictures of them. Ryan was also very flexible with our schedule, I would really recommend him for any of your pets needs and we will definitely be using his sitting services next time we need him!”
18. Vi N.
“Vi was great with Koda and very good at communicating and sending photos. It helps to be able to find a spot for my dog when I have to run out of town for an overnight trip. Thanks!”

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.
