For moments when you want to explore Lisbon's indoor museums, Sintra's palaces, or simply enjoy a long dinner, professional pet-sitting and dog-walking services are available in Lisbon. Rover.com and DogHero operate in Lisbon and provide verified local pet-sitters. Several local dog-walking companies also serve the city.

💡 Quick Tips

1.Book pet-sitting through Rover.com or DogHero — both have verified reviews and operate widely in Lisbon.
2.Ask your hotel concierge — many upscale Lisbon hotels have relationships with trusted local pet-sitters.
3.For a day trip to Sintra (dogs allowed on trains and at most outdoor sites), you don't need a sitter — Sintra's gardens and Moorish castle are dog-friendly.
