Dog Boarding near Austin, TX

Elton John is a very friendly dog and young at heart. Loves children and knows how to play with either small or large dogs. Is sometimes called a therapy dog because he loves to sit next to you and loves to be pet. I do have to warn everyone who doesn’t know that this English Cream Golden Retriever does shed.

Dog Mom to two cute schnauzers

Very friendly dog.

We are retired, love dogs, love to go on walks everyday. Clara is 13 and slowing way down as she ages. She’s not into playing much but loves to be in the center of the action. She’s so sweet with children, other animals and has never met a stranger!! She makes us better humans!!

Oakley is a sweet boy who loves belly rubs and playing tug-o-war with his toys. He also likes to play fetch in the backyard and will sit nicely for a treat. He sleeps in the laundry room currently but not in a crate.

Ginger is super low key and just likes to be around people, laying at your feet or besides you. She has grown up with kids on the house so is used to noise and movement. Super sweet and not a bother at all. Loves her cage but also loves sleeping with someone. She gets along with other dogs, generally ignoring them.

Mochi is a sweet, cautious but playful Golden puppy. She plays with our feral cat "Cowcat" often but looking for some good times with another calm and chill pup. She is rarely alone, gets plenty of walks, love and attention. She likes to go to sleep in her crate at night and never wakes you up in the morning.

I’m 73 and single with a fenced back yard. I have a doggy door that my dog uses. My dog is not an escaper and does not try to get out of the yard. Bliss is a sweet husky and gets along with kids and other dogs. She is good in the house and yard but wouldn’t want her staying in the back yard for many hours. Bliss likes to talk and will do so when she needs entertainment. Bliss is obedient and not a biter.

We are in our 60’s love our dogs. Our 16 year old King Charles Cavalier just passed away, so we are a one dog home. Romy is fun, playful and also attends daycare on Thursdays to keep her socialized. We would entertain watching a senior Cavalier since we’re very well versed in there needs. We’d prefer a playful Boxer,spayed or neutered a must on all dogs.

We got our new puppy in November and he has already been such a joy. I’ve owned a few pets in my life including another golden that’s 4.5 years but currently in Chicago with other fur parent. Looking to swap sitting services with other golden families or most other dogs. We have a good size dog run/park along some surrounding land for our dogs to run around. We take walks and training our newest pup with all the basic commands and tricks, He’s doing great so far. Interested in playdates and swapping sitting

I’m Eli, and I coach HS football. Cowboy is sweet and friendly dog and loves people. He’s also great with kids. Cowboy loves to play with other dogs and is well trained.

Cali is 6 years old. She loves to play outside and loves to go on hikes. She is extremely good off leash and would never leave your side. Inside she is extremely lazy and likes to lay around. I may be biased but She’s the easiest most lovable dog in the world.

Hi! My name is Marina and my dog’s name is Busty. He is a shy 3 yr old shepherd mix pup. He loves to go on walks and play with other dogs. Busty is a rescue and needs time to warm up to others.

Meet Eli and Rizzo - two gentle brow-brothers who are always looking for new friends to play with in our backyard or yours. These lovable boys will steal your heart. Eli (the gentle giant) loves fetch, water and long naps on the bed. Rizzo (the spunky spaz) loves playing with other pups and zooming around the back yard playing chase. We have two young humans at home (girls 4 and 1) who love cuddling with their furry buds so these dogs get along great with young and older kids alike. These boys do great with just about any friendly dogs out there and are very easy going/easy to care for. Please note, these dogs would not do well in a home with cats.

Hi. Alan and Simón came to live with me after my pups passed at the ages of 18, 16 and 17. I have always loved dogs and at one point fostered 7 at the same time! Alan is energetic and loves pets from anyone. He is extremely social and makes friends easily. Simón is completely chill. He loves to lounge in front of the window catching some sunshine.

Hi!! Roux is our first baby fur child! She is the sweetest girl and loves all humans! She was a Covid baby so she is used to always being with people! She loves pets and kisses 🥰 she gets along with other dogs as well and likes to play fetch! She will always greet you with a toy!

Oreo is a veery sweet dog. Calm Temperament, obedient, loving, listens to directions immediately. Walks on leash and off leash! Does not jump on people! Is very food motivated. Loves to walk at least 3 miles a day! The sweetest boy ever! Not neutered!

Dog parent of an adopted poodle mix Baxter. Looking to board Baxter or sit other dogs. We have a fenced backyard for them to play. They are allowed on furniture and play freely in the house.

I live in Circle C with my family, and we are outdoor people and take Timo with us to all the possible places. He likes to walk, and in the morning and evening, we take him for big rounds, and in the afternoon and early evening, we give him small breaks in the backyard. He still has a lot of puppy energy and loves to play with other dogs.

Hi, I’m Erin and my pup’s name is Kaido (pronounced like Fido but with a K). We love going paddle boarding together and Kaido loves hanging out with other dog friends. We often go for walks together in the neighborhood or the walking trails near Circle C. Kaido gets very excited when he meets other dogs, and some dogs find that a little annoying. We also have a small dog door that leads to our fenced backyard, so Kaido spends most of his days running around the yard to his hearts content.

I’m a single mom to two human children and one furry child. My Frenchie loves to play with other small dogs. He is finally mellowing out from the puppy stage and has a great personality.

Hi! I have 2 sweet Frenchie girls that love to play, cuddle, and sleep!

Churro is goofiest fur baby! He is about 70 lbs but very gentle he still thinks he is a puppy. He loves to socialize with other doggos in dog park and on walks. At 1.5 years he is almost an adult but still shows some puppy energy at times. Usually he is snoozing after a good meal, keeping entertained with squirrels and loves neck scratches + belly rubs.

Dog lover, cat lover looking to host a dog and be hosted in return. I have a large yard and a greenbelt walking distance to me.

My name is Renu and my husbands name is Ram. We have a mini Goldendoodle and her name is Lucy. Lucy was born on November 20, 2023 and we got her at 8 weeks in mid January. She is our first pup and we are learning a lot! I work fully remote and Ram goes into the office 3 days a week. When we are not working, we love exploring Austin and trying new experiences this city has to offer. Lucy is sweet, fun and curious little puppy learning her way around this world. She loves being out in the sun, playing fetch, taking naps and getting a lot of attention from people.

Just exploring this resource for now. Will add more if I decide to engage more fully. Thanks!

Hi! We are Anu and Dougie. We live in Southwest Austin and absolutely love to do fun things like playing in our pretty backyard, taking long walks to the park and playing brain teasers (specially the ones that involve food!) Dougie loves all humans, little humans, fellow dogs and is very laidback, trusting and loving. We would love to host a pup of similar temperament and have Dougie get to know them in their homes. Looking forward to connecting with adorable pups and their parents.

I have 3 littles and a beagle who are all very social. I have fostered over 100 dogs so they are use to new dogs coming and going. They are all older so naps are very important to them.

Indie is a playful friendly dog and loves to play. She is a cattledog and lab mix and just shy of 2 yrs old. She’s crate trained and can be ok with potty breaks every 4 hrs or so.

Hi, I'm Stephanie and I live with my partner Parnell and our puppy Tamira, who we are obsessed with. We're right next to Mary Moore Searight park, so she gets lots of exercise and nature time, but we're always looking for more playdates, and someone we trust to do pet sit exchanges with would be amazing too. I used to work as a pet sitter myself and enjoy learning about dog training. I'm currently working from home as a mental health therapist. Tamira is 8 months (as of June 14) and full of puppy energy. She's potty trained, crate trained and working hard on loose leash walking. She absolutely loves other dogs, people and children. She's a sweetheart and will settle and chill after she's gotten her energy out, but will need about 20-30 minutes of off leash play time in the morning and either more play or a walk in the evening.

Hiya! I’m Angela and my sweet little boy is Loki. He’s a rescue mix who just celebrated his 6th birthday. I work from home in south Austin so we get to hang out together all day and take backyard breaks to get some sun when we can.

She is still in her puppy phase so has quite a bit of energy. She is extremely friendly with other dogs and people around. Loves to run away with shoes so watch out👀. Potty trained. She is a delight:)

I works from home most of time, and we have a small yard great for the small dog to run around. My dog, Milo, is about 2 years old. Love people and very playful.

Birdie & Penny are the most cuddly loveys. As Vizslas - they are beautiful to watch run and amazing velcro dogs.

I work from home most of the time, so I'm around a lot during the day. We have a fenced in yard for the dogs to run around in. Mila is 6 year old lab mix and loves people. She goes to daycare once a week so has lots of experience with different dogs. She is good with cats but has limited experience with small kids. We have a cat in our home so your dog would need to be okay with cats. Mila is crate trained but we don't have a crate in the house anymore.

Hi there! I am a 31 year old social worker living in south Austin with my perfect pups Tupelo and Frida. I work odd hours and am always looking for the perfect doggy trade. I have a fenced yard and lots of trails out my back door for doggy hikes. My parents are both veterinarians so I am a HUGE animal lover!

Hi myself Hrushi and my partner Zoey , we adopted Merlot from Rescue centre in Dec 2023, she is 19months old and house trained as well as she has very fun loving & caring personality. Very gentle with kids as well as other humans . She is protective , playful but very adorable companion .

Hello! My name is Zoey & my partner and I adopted Merlot from the shelter in December, she had become the center of our lives & we couldn’t be happier. She is such a love bug ! 🐞🩷

Ruby is a 6 year old visla/ Mastiff mix that I have had since she was 7 weeks old. She's a bit shy at first but warms up quickly to treats and ear rubs. She May barks still first but she is not aggressive in any way. She is bonded with Pataikos. They do not leave each other's side. She isn't very good on a leash and loves snuggling on the couch

Melo is such a fun and friendly pup! He always sweetly greets new dog friends with a bark or sniff, then takes off running to a "safe spot" person for comfort and reassurance. Melo loves to play with his toys, give everyone kisses, get belly rubs, and take naps. He'll often be found laying in the sun in our backyard, looking for birds and butterflies.

Hi! My husband and I moved to Austin two years ago from Chicago and have a wonderful fur baby named Zero. He is a sweet boy, however he has separation anxiety and also has had some trauma from his previous foster home. He loves people, but not other dogs so much. He just needs company from time to time when we have appointments. I would love to help sit your pets or do drop in visits and walks in return.

I have two Frenchies and am comfortable with delicate flowers like bully breeds. My dogs are very people and dog friendly and would be thrilled to share their fully fenced yard. I prefer guest dogs sleep in crates but otherwise have run of the house. I work from home, so things are highly supervised.

Hi! My husband and I have two fur babies. We're wanting to travel a bit more and looking to find another dog family to swap doggie care with. We have 2 smaller pups, Tito (chi-mutt) and Luna (chihuahua). Luna can take a little bit to warm up to others, but is a sweetheart once she does. Tito is our Eyore and likes to do his own thing (won't play with other dogs, tends to ignore them). They both love going on walks, to the dog park, hanging outside in the backyard and cuddling on the couch with us. Both are potty trained, and crate trained. Tito does well in the car, Luna will get car sick on long rides without dramamine (both the vet and the dog park are close!! Lol). Both do ok with cats; however, will give chase if the cat starts running. We have birds at our house (in cage), so our hosting preference would be for other pups that aren't fixated on the bird in the cage (this would probably take a visit to determine). Other than that, we're open to trading care with small-medium dogs that are potty and crate trained.

We love going on walks and Fin and Jimmy love running around for hours!

Charlie has lots of puppy energy and loves to play all day with other dogs and humans alike. He loves fetch, sparring, and cuddles. He can communicate with buttons and knows 9 words that he uses accurately. He's also super chill when its not playtime. I'm looking for some new friends who Charlie can hangout with during the day at least one day per week. I'm also interested in a mutual dog-sitting arrangement, where we take turns looking after each other's dogs when one of us is out of town.

Meet Thumbelina! Got her during the pandemic and she’s been an awesome pup! She lovesss a good cuddle to watch tv or before bed, and is obsessed with curling up under the blankets. My girl will never pass up the opportunity to go on a car ride or lay under the sun in the back yard and just enjoy! And don’t worry she will bring her toy to you to fetch or she’ll throw the toy to you! And lovessss other little dogs as well! She’s such a happy balance of ready for fun and ready to relax (:

Dolly is our newest addition who is a lovely rescue who we believe used to be a mama and has just been a huge love to our fam. She is so easy and ready to adventure but will always be ready to snuggle up and cuddle with us! Amazing with children and kiddos so so patient

I’m Lindsey, and Ravioli (I call her Yoli) is my sweet Maltipoo. She’s a snuggler and a well-mannered girl all around. She's fearful of some bigger dogs, but often warms up to them after some time together. I’m an operations and marketing manager for a law firm, and work from home in our townhouse condo in South Austin. Our community has two dog parks, which we either visit alone, or with other pups and parents we’re friends with.

Hello! My name is Sarah and my husband’s name is Brady. We adopted Sashi a few months ago and we are looking for some friends as he has just been fully vaccinated! He is a super sweet pup who loves being held, but also loves his alone time. He already knows 6 tricks!

Hi! We’re Kim, Eric and Henry. Henry is a 1 year old Doberman mix from APA who lovessss playing with any dog he can find. He has lots of energy and is always up for a walk or a play session.

Thor is an old man and he is pretty laid back. He comes with a muzzle because he is a but unsocial. He also fakes injuries when playing with big dogs and wanting out, so if he is limping don’t freak out.

Playful medium dogs that can free roam if we’re not home and enjoy long walks welcome. Greco is sweet and sometimes bashful loves other dogs and prefers women :)

Annie and Anindya live in south austin. Recently moved to Austin. Love to travel.

I'm a software engineer who works from home. I'm home most of the time. And when we do go out, we try to take Minnie with us as much as possible. That being said, Minnie does have experience entertaining herself for 4 hours or more if left alone. She isn't destructive except towards her toys and tends to reflect the energy shown towards her. Originally trained to be a guide dog, she's very relaxed and curious. She's very well behaved most of the time and only curiosity causes her to delay obedience sometimes.

Hello! Our names our Chad and Grace and we have 2 dogs, George and Rory. We are big dog lovers and have a home with a fenced in yard. Now onto the dogs! George is a very sweet mixed breed who loves to run and play, but is also very content being lazy. Rory is a big goofy boy who can be a bit crazy, but also loves humans and spends most of his day following you around :)

Teddy is a cuddly dog. He likes to watch tv with you. He prefers small dogs. He is potty trained. He knows the command sit in English and Spanish.

Stella lives with Bob and Cindy in a loving dog environment. Cindy and Bob are active adults who love to travel, bike, hike, cook and embrace Austin as their home for over 50 years. Stella is a sweet loving Aussie who loves dogs but is somewhat timid around new people. She likes to tell you when she is ready to be your friend but once she brings you into her circle you’re friends forever. She is an inside dog but loves to do her job of squirrel patrol every morning and evening. She is not a yapping dog by any means but is hyper attentive to her surroundings as a herder should be. She wants to please at all times and is super motivated by treats and will do her best work to earn them.

Intro

Hi! I’m Myalen and this is Cletus! We love to get out, be active, and meet new friends. Cletus comes with me basically everywhere when I’m off the clock. He loves other dogs (and cats) and loves to play. Looking to take I. Dogs when I can and pay it forward. Also looking for occasional help when I leave town or when the pup has been cooped up while I’m at the office.

Alfie is a goofy, smart, and very happy dog. I am just like my dog minus the smart part.

We are Caitlyn & Phillip and our two aussies are Rigsby and Rebel! We own a house off of Riverside Dr. with a fenced in yard that the dogs love to play in. We also keep them active with walks, runs, and a ton of trips to different dog parks. The two dogs have very different personalities. Rigsby is 8 years old so she is pretty chill and doesn’t require a lot! She loves to sleep and go on walks and will just hang out all day if you wanted. Rebel is 1 year old and still has plenty of energy! He’s very well behaved but does require a good amount of attention and exercise. He LOVES other dogs and will wrestle, chase, and play all day. Ideally, you have an active dog who loves to play a lot as well so that your dog essentially does the work of keeping Rebel busy and tired out for you! Both Rigsby and Rebel can be trusted at home roaming around for a good amount of time/a typical work days hours.

We are a dog loving family who have a wonderful puppy, Crosby. Our 4 children love spoiling and loving on dogs.

We are empty nesters who live in Lakeway and have one dog, Bella, who is 2. Our yard is fenced and large enough for some fun play. We prefer to host doodles, but are open to others breeds occasionally.

She is sweet and loves to eat. She is a rescue so a bit scared.

Scrappy is very friendly Chihuahua and Australian shepherd brindle. He loves people and will not stop until he gets few pets from them.

Hello! We're John and Tasha, and our pets are Luna, a staffie, and Spooky, a tuxedo kitty.

Hi there my name is Ashley. I have a 5 year old standard poodle name Potato. I am also a nurse and have plenty of time to take care of the pups.I do live in a apartment but I take my pup out everyday for a least 2-3 hours and run him around. Your little one will be in great hands! I work at night so l'm home during the day and my boyfriend is home at night. I work 3 nights a week so l have a flexible schedule to be able to take your fur baby anywhere you feel comfortable. My dog is like my child, I will take care of your baby like he's my own. They are able to sleep on the couch and the bed. We go out an play for at least 2 hours a day and someone will always be home with them!

Hi, nice to meet you! I’m Vish, and my cute not-so-little pup is Burfi! My husband, AK, and I rehomed Burfi as a pup back in 2021. Burfi is the light of our lives and is the sweetest gentle giant you’ll ever meet. He’s super friendly and loves to play with dogs all sizes! Our little family recently underwent a big change, a big inter-state move! Austin has been welcoming so far and Burfi has been loving the vibe and the many pets from everyone. Burfi can’t wait to meet new friends and sneak in some pets along the way!

Bunny is the snuggliest little gal who loves to play with stuffies, squeak toys, and steal socks. She is obsessed with belly and ear rubs but will take any affection you’re willing to give. She loves to love! She loves other pups but nothing compares to a human hug.

Playful and friendly

My dog is a very friendly but rambunctious mutt. He has never met a dog he doesn’t love! We are also working on training using an E collar.

Hi! My names Maggie and Poppy is my tiny corgi! She’s a small corgi with lots of energy we usually go on a few walks every day. I work from home so love having her here with me! She’s a cuddle bug but LOVES to play with other dogs (big or small)!!

Hi! My name is Leah, mom to Chip the Goldendoodle. Chip is almost 3 years old. He is the sweetest boy, I’ve been told many times he is so well behaved for his age and his breed. Goldendoodles are known to be super high energy and Chip is only high energy when he’s excited to see you. Otherwise he is napping and he loves to cuddle. He has an hour each day that he likes to play usually around 6pm. He will bring you a ball or his rope toy. He sleeps in bed with me every night and has major separation anxiety which is why I don’t want to board him. He doesn’t like to be alone.

Navajo is my wonderful foster dog. He has added so much joy to my life. He is a great companion and velcro dog. We like to go to Neighbors dog park, go for hikes, and sit on the balcony in the warm weather. Sometimes I will drop him off at doggy day care to have some fun.
