San Sebastián's size means fewer pet-sitting providers than a major capital, but platforms like Rover.es connect travellers with local dog walkers and sitters across the Donostia area. Given the city's large dog-owning population, local sitters tend to be experienced and comfortable with a wide range of breeds.
