2. Alexa M.
“Alexa is a very caring person . It was the first time that we left our Chico with a person we didn’t know and we are happy that we chose her. She was updating us with texts and photos and made our stay away from home less stressful. We recommend her 100%. Thank you Alexa :)”
3. Lily B.
“Lily is amazing!!! I was a little nervous to have someone care for my senior dog at first. But Lily was so so sweet and even sent me updates/ pictures. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter. She was so friendly!”
4. 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!”
5. Brandy C.

7. Manuela Diaz H.
“Manuela had my dog Loki for 8 days when I went out of state and was amazing with him. Loki has some attachment issues, but she made his stay so fun for him which I got to see through daily photos/videos. Her dog Morgan is also super sweet and became best friends with Loki. Strongly recommend!”
8. Rose V.
“My dogs loved being over at Rose’s place again for the week! They got to spend time with her own pup Sunshine and a couple of other dogs she was watching too. One of my dogs didn’t even want to leave. Rose was even sweet enough to give them both a bath on their last day so they were smelling fresh going home.”
9. Catherine E.
“I am very happy to have found Catherine and Nelson to watch my dog while I left town. They have a great, safe and comfortable house and made it feel like home for my dog. I really appreciated the up dates with photos.”
10. Chris N.
“Chris is amazing! Left my dog for the very first time, he’s never been boarded before, and he had so much fun! Communication was great, and I got lots of photos. Highly recommend for a peace of mind boarding/sitting.”
11. 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! ❤️❤️”
12. 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”
13. 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!”
14. 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.”
15. Tyler E.
“Tyler was the best! He watched Millie on less than 6 hours notice when my previous situation fell through. She is an energetic one that requires a lot of attention and he exceeded my expectations. He sent pictures and kept me up to date on their daily activities then entire 5 days I was gone and left me stress free about how my pup was doing the whole time. Can’t recommend him enough.”
16. Ryan P.
“Really great sitter. Provided excellent care for my pup and was very communicative about logistics and how my dog was doing during his stay. Skyler came back a happy pup!”
17. 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!”
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. 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. Jenny K.
“Jenny K has adored all animals since she was born, and I should know, as I am her mother. When she was 2 years she played all day with her Lab pup. Growing up we had five more dogs of various breeds, an indoor rabbit, Siberian hamsters, and fish. Of course there were rescue critters like the bird she named Larry Bird who crashed in our porch and had to be rehabilitated. Or the “ run over” mouse she tried her best to rehabilitate even contacting rehab pros until there was no hope. She had her own rescue cat as a busy young professional, who took walks on a leash and enjoyed park and biking runs. Jenny is well suited to be responsible for other peoples beloved furry or feathery family members. They will feel like they are home. Jenny is able to administer medication if needed, and fine working with special diets. I have enjoyed using Rover myself for our pup and appreciate exactly what is required of a person working for you. Jenny K will provide a great Rover home and is a person who is responsible and respectful of other’s home and property.”

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.
