4. 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).”
5. Chris N.
“Chris went above and beyond for my Chiweenie. Was flexible with drop off and pick up times due to a change in my travel plans. Roux seemed to have a great time! I will be booking again in the future. Thanks Chris!”
6. Manuela Diaz H.
“Manuela is a FANTASTIC rover - great communication, wonderful with my dog Cooper, and flexible when my plans changed. She sent multiple pictures/videos a day and Cooper came back happy and tired after playing with their dog Morgan. I was nervous leaving Coop while I traveled but Manuela really gave me peace of mind. I’ve already booked another stay for Coop and would highly recommend Manuela!”

“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”
10. Tyler E.
“Tyler took care of my 10 year old Shiba Inu for 3 weeks. Bow came back very happy and healthy. I can tell Tyler put in a lot of love and care in taking care of Bow.”
11. 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!”
12. Lisa B.
“Lisa and Jeff took great care of our senior dog. He made himself comfortable in their home right away, and he came home happy and relaxed. We would absolutely work with Lisa and Jeff again in the future. Thank you so much!”
13. Catherine E.
“Catherine and Nelson took great care of Adler while I was out of town for three nights. I knew when we first met that I could trust Catherine - she knows how to handle dogs and understood my dog's "special needs". She sent regular updates and pictures to reassure me that Adler was in good hands. I highly recommend Catherine!”

15. Jean-Paul & Andrea H.
“We got so many updates and were happy and comfortable leaving our pup with Andrea and Jean-Paul. We will be leaving on our honeymoon soon and Scout will again be with them. This will be the longest we have been away from our pup but we know we can vacation with some peace.”
16. 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!”

“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”
20. Angelique M.
“Angelique was wonderful! Felt Derby was super well taken care of while we were away. We had another pet sitter cancel on us last minute and we were able to hire Angelique within a couple days of needing her to start watching Derby. Thanks again!”

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.
