Pet Sitting & Dog Care Services in Hvar

PetBacker is the leading pet-sitting platform on Hvar with the deepest verified roster on the island, offering dog walking, day care, home visits and overnight stays. The platform includes free pet injury insurance and 24/7 customer support, and uses verified user reviews. Sitters set their own rates; the median on Hvar is €30-45 per night, noticeably higher in July-August. Most sitters are based in Hvar Town and Stari Grad with limited coverage in Jelsa and Sveta Nedjelja.

Pawshake operates in 15+ countries with a growing Dalmatia roster covering Hvar Town, Stari Grad and the wider Split-Dalmatia region, offering dog walking, home visits and overnight care. Each booking includes the Pawshake Guarantee with veterinary cover and 24/7 customer support. Best for travellers already familiar with the platform from other European stays who can broaden their search to the wider Split-Dalmatia region if no Hvar-based sitter is available on their dates.

TrustedHousesitters lists verified live-in sitters on Hvar who stay at your apartment in exchange for caring for your dog - particularly useful for travellers renting a holiday apartment for a week or more in Hvar Town, Stari Grad or the Stari Grad Plain villages. Sitters and owners both verify identity and references. Membership-based ($169/year) but suits travellers planning multiple Adriatic stays, with the side benefit of giving the dog a stable apartment routine rather than kennel days.
