Lisbon, Aug 2026

I hired Igor to walk my dog twice a day, and it went pretty well. He was very friendly with my dog, and I could see my dog was also comfortable with him, so there was no issue with trust even though he was a stranger at first. He was always available and professional, but getting him at the exact time I wanted was a bit difficult because he had other dogs to walk and the price felt a bit on the higher end for a 45 minute walk. Overall, I would definitely hire him again.

She is wonderful with dogs and has done an amazing job with our big dog. We first had her for sitting and now we have her doing training too, and she’s been very flexible - she put up with our schedule disruption and even stayed a bit extra when things ran late. She would send us pictures on WhatsApp, she was punctual always, and she’s very polite, a lovely lady. Price felt fair and we’re very happy, so we continue to use her.

Elise did a wonderful job watching our 2 cats while we were on vacation, she was very prepared and professional and made sure to keep documentation of everything needed which made us feel very safe leaving them in her care. She catered her updates based on what we would prefer and we felt that our pets were safe, when we got back everything was clean and the cats were calm and well taken care of. We'll be using her as our permanent pet sitter and recommend her services.

How much do dog walkers cost in Lisbon?

Real price ranges from the jobs our vetted dog walkers actually do. Prices updated August 2026

Dog feeding visits

How much does a feeding visit cost in Lisbon?

A short drop-in to feed and check on the animal, cheaper than a full walk. Common for cats and for dogs when you are working late.

Short visit
€5 to €9
Longer visit
€7 to €15

Group dog walks

How much does a dog walker cost in Lisbon?

Group walks are the standard offer and the cheapest per walk. Buying a weekly or monthly package brings the per-walk price down noticeably.

Per walk
€10 to €15
Monthly package, per walk
around €10
Hourly rate
€4 to €20 an hour

Long dog walks

How much does a long dog walk cost in Lisbon?

Priced by duration, so an hour costs more than the usual half hour. Useful for high-energy breeds in a city of small flats.

60 minute walk
€15 to €17
Typical total
€8 to €80

Puppy walks

How much do puppy walks cost in Lisbon?

Shorter and gentler than adult walks, and priced similarly or slightly lower. Check the walker waits until vaccinations are complete.

Per walk
€10 to €15
Hourly rate
€4 to €20 an hour

Solo dog walks

How much does a solo dog walk cost in Lisbon?

One dog, one walker, so it costs more than a group walk. Worth it for dogs that do not get on with others or are still learning leash manners.

Per walk
€15 to €17
Hourly rate
€4 to €20 an hour

Weekend and holiday dog walks

How much do weekend dog walks cost in Lisbon?

Weekends and public holidays usually carry a surcharge, which is normal. Agree the rate before a long weekend rather than after.

Per walk
€12 to €17
Typical total
€8 to €80

Frequently Asked Questions

What expats want to know before hiring dog walkers in Lisbon.

Are there English-speaking dog walkers in Lisbon?
Yes, and more do as the expat community grows. The hard part is knowing who is reliable before you book, so every one we list is reviewed by other expats who have actually used them.
What should I check before hiring dog walkers in Lisbon?
Read recent reviews, be clear about exactly what you need, and agree the scope and an estimate in writing before any work starts. For anything regulated, check they hold the right credentials for the job.
What is the most important thing to know before booking?
Be clear about what you want and get the price and scope agreed up front, so there are no surprises. Reading other expats' reviews is the quickest way to find someone who does the job well and communicates clearly.
What should I avoid when hiring dog walkers in Lisbon?
Avoid paying the full amount up front (a deposit can be fair), anyone who will not give a clear quote, and unusually cheap prices that get padded with extras later.
How do I explain what I need if my Portuguese is limited?
A photo, a short video or a written list does most of the talking, and the professionals we list are used to international clients. Booking an English-speaking one takes the stress out of it entirely.
How do you say dog walkers in Portuguese?
In Portuguese, dog walkers are usually called passeadores de caes. That is the word to search for or to ask a neighbour, though many professionals here are used to the English term too.
How do I find dog walkers I can trust in Lisbon?
Check the reviews and any credentials before you book. On Locallista the reviews are phone-verified and the ranking is based on real expat experience, not who paid the most.
