Fundão · Your accommodation in Fundão
In small Portuguese towns the most reliable pet-sitting connection is through your hotel or rural house (quinta). Owners often know a local who does informal dog-sitting or walking. It is worth asking at check-in, especially if you plan a day trip to a mountain area without the dog.
