That's why we provide the same love, patience, and attention we'd want for our own dogs. Our goal is for every pup to feel safe, happy, and right at home while you're away. Our family includes our two friendly, neutered dogs—Einstein ("Ein"), our fun-loving Corgi, and Maximus ("Max"), our sweet Terrier/Chihuahua mix. They enjoy making new friends and help create a welcoming, family atmosphere.

We intentionally accept only one family's dogs at a time so we can provide a calm, low-stress environment and focus completely on your pet's needs.

Our goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your best friend is safe, loved, and having a vacation of their own!

About: I’m dependable, patient, and caring with years of hands-on pet experience. I understand feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, playtime, routines, and helping pets feel calm while owners are away. I’m attentive, trustworthy, and happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I work an early schedule, which gives me flexibility later in the day and on select weekdays. I’m also available many evenings and weekends for drop-in visits and walks. I keep a reliable schedule and communicate clearly with pet owners. I care for pets with patience, attention, and respect for their routine. In a client’s home, I follow instructions carefully for feeding, walks, litter care, medications if needed, and keeping the space secure. I’m dependable, clean, and happy to send updates and photos.

Holly was on time and extremely responsive. I was in a bind and needed someone next day to let Nash out in the evening and in the morning. She responded within 5min of me reaching out and we scheduled a meet and greet 1st thing in the morning and she was on time and extremely professional. On both days she was on time and walked him as expected and communicated updates and pictures. Really put my mind at ease while I was out of town

About: My name is Omi, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My love for pets began in childhood while growing up in Puerto Rico, where I was surrounded by cats, dogs and many other animals. Living with so many different animals taught me from an early age how to understand their unique personalities, care for their needs, and appreciate the unconditional love they give. My very first pet was a Chihuahua with a wonderfully spicy personality who quickly became a cherished member of our family. As I got older, I naturally became the person family, friends, and neighbors trusted to care for their pets whenever they traveled. I regularly looked after my aunt's dog, Rosie, cared for my neighbor's cat, Chloe, spent time with my cousin's Husky, Brooklyn, and cared for my sister's three cats by feeding them and making sure they were happy and comfortable while she was away. I truly believe every pet deserves to feel loved, safe, and cared for just as they would at home. I have a naturally nurturing personality and genuinely enjoy spending quality time with animals, whether that means going on long walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, offering plenty of affection, or simply keeping them company. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, secure, and loved. Today, I still enjoy caring for animals and currently have a betta fish of my own. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet cuddle, I will treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I know how much our pets mean to us because they truly are family, and I would be honored to care for yours while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and spend only a few hours each day on my computer. This gives me plenty of flexibility to provide your pet with the attention, companionship, and care they deserve throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard where pets can safely play and explore, and there's also a nearby dog park for walks, exercise, and extra enrichment if desired. I make sure every pet receives plenty of love, playtime, affection, and one-on-one attention while respecting their individual personalities and routines. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm, relaxed environment, I'll make them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved as possible. I carefully follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure, so I strive to maintain the routine they're accustomed to. I provide plenty of affection, exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship while ensuring they always have access to fresh water and a clean, safe environment. Communication is also important to me. I'll send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, healthy, and receiving the same love and attention they would get at home. Every pet is unique, and I treat each one like a member of my own family.

About: Hi! I’m a former paramedic who is currently working helping my family run our small business. I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and caring for animals (and people) has always been a part of who I am. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs, and I’m able to provide care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with cats and dogs that may be shy, fearful, reactive, or considered less than friendly. I understand the importance of patience, reading body language, and creating a calm, safe environment so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, gentle care, medication support, or simply someone they can trust while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same attention and compassion that I give my own. I’m currently working with my family which allows me to have an extremely flexible and open schedule. Generally available from 8:30a.m-11p.m 7 days a week Long walks and backyard or park playtime. I am comfortable caring for pets with special medical and physical needs. I can provide basic grooming if needed for pets that will allow.

About: My Pet Care Experience I have been surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up, my family raised a high energy Jack Russell Terrier, which taught me a lot about patience, smart play styles, and managing bold personalities. Today, my fiancé and I share our home with a happy Golden Retriever/Labrador mix and a 2 month old kitten. Caring for them daily keeps me sharp on big-dog stamina, training reinforcement, and the delicate routine needed for a growing kitten. What Sets Me Apart Multi-Breed Comfort: I am equally comfortable with small, fast-paced terriers and large, strong retrievers. Puppy & Kitten Experience: Raising a 2 month old kitten means I am used to active supervision, tracking strict feeding schedules, and managing young pet energy. Owner Peace of Mind: Because I am a pet parent myself, I know how hard it is to leave your babies behind. I focus on clear communication and sending frequent photo updates so you know they are safe and happy. My Availability & Schedule I offer flexible daytime and evening care tailored around my weekly class and work schedule. I am strictly available for Dog Walking and Drop-In Visits during the following times: Sunday & Monday: Fully available all day and evening. Tuesday: Available for morning and afternoon visits. Wednesday: Fully available all day and evening. Thursday: Available for afternoon and evening care. And weekends if needed. Because I prioritize the safety and comfort of my own pets at home, I do not offer overnight house sitting or boarding services. This allows me to dedicate 100% of my energy to focused, high-quality walks and quick drop-in care for your fur babies! My Approach to Client-Home Care & Safety Because I strictly offer Dog Walking and Drop-In Visits, my priority is keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable right in their own familiar environment while respecting your home. For Drop-In Visits (Dogs & Cats): Arrival & Security: I enter your home carefully to ensure pets don't slip out the door. I strictly follow your entry, alarm, and lock-up instructions. Routine & Care: I stick closely to your specific feeding, fresh water, and medication schedules. For cats, I handle litter box scooping and clean up any messes. Attention & Play: I dedicate my full visit to keeping your pets company, offering plenty of focused playtime, scratches, and mental stimulation. For Dog Walking:Safety First: I always check that collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure before stepping outside. I keep dogs on a secure, short leash and avoid interactions with unknown dogs on the street. Weather & Hydration: Living in Florida, I make sure the pavement isn't too hot for their paws, keep walks a comfortable pace, and ensure they have plenty of fresh water immediately when we get back. I always wrap up every single visit by ensuring your home is perfectly locked up and sending you a quick summary with cute photo updates!

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. I’m currently a dog sitter for my mom whenever she goes out of town. At most, I have taken care of 3 dogs and 2 cats at one time. I have a 6 month training in pet grooming where I learned how to read the signs of a scared or uncomfortable dog/cat, and will always respect their space when it comes to a stranger in their area! I’m currently working part time, so it’s easy for me to stop by and check on your pets! It’s more of a hobby for me than a way to make money. I love all pets! I will always make sure your dog or cat is comfortable with me. Whether that’s giving them the space they need, or making sure they received plenty of affection, or simply making sure they’re in the home!

About: I have had dogs my whole life, there is nothing more special to me that providing a nice walk and care for a loving dog. I just moved here from Boston and am homesick for my parents dog which is why it is important for me to meet and give love to other dogs! My family dog is a large boxer/ lab/ Great Dane mix so I am used to being around large (friendly) dogs. Sizes and breeds are not important to me as long as they are friendly and love taking walks as much as I do. If there is anything special your dog needs, I am there to help and provide the best care I can offer. I look forward to meeting your dog! I work full time 8 am-6 pm Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday, 11 am-8 pm on Fridays. I am available for drop in at 7 am and 7 pm MTWS and 9 am, 9 pm F I don’t work on Thursdays and Sundays and am free as long as my children are welcome! I have a fenced in yard (1/2 acre). I also have a great neighborhood to walk in. If your dog is crate trained I have a large crate they can use as well as a separate bedroom they can stay in if you’d like.

About: I’m Brooke! Lover of all pets, young and old, big and small. I can do walks, hikes, swimming, even to a play day at the park, I am sure I will pamper your pooch. For me, it’s their stay, their way! They lead me on their walks, so I allow them to safely do what they want, within reason of course. I might even bring them along for a beach trip and can make some new friends! Pet stores are a given. 

Starbucks pup cups are a given. Any specific requests for them? Let me know! I allow them on my bed and couch, unless you prefer them not to. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. Allow me to meet y'all and let’s play fetch! I’ll even give them a bath if you want! Just bring their shampoo if they have sensitive skin! 🐶 I’m currently a Paralegal remote, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups and attend to them! ❤️ Some call me the dog whisperer but I credit my dog attraction success by understanding that “it’s the dogs world and I’m just living in it”. Dogs come first in my house. I’m always excited to take my dogs on a hike, walk or puppy play date. I live in a dog friendly house with a fenced in yard. I have sat numerous dogs both young and old and enjoy pup slumber parties. If your pup needs a bath, I am willing to scrub them in the tub. If they need certain medications, I can do so. I am also known to make cute treat dog baskets. They’ll be spoiled by me! 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to each pet, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration, or simply providing companionship and attention. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I make it a priority to follow their normal routines as closely as possible. Throughout the day, I provide regular potty breaks, exercise, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. I also make time to send updates and photos to pet parents so they can feel connected and reassured while they’re away. Whether caring for a playful puppy, an active adult pet, or a senior companion who needs extra patience and care, I am committed to making sure every pet receives the attention, love, and individualized care they deserve. My goal is to help pets feel relaxed and at home while giving owners peace of mind. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I take the time to learn their individual needs, personality, feeding schedule, exercise requirements, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, exercise, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection and companionship. I know that many pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I work to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, safe, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel part of the family. I ensure they have plenty of attention, supervised playtime, exercise, comfortable resting areas, and constant access to fresh water. I closely monitor pets for any signs of stress or discomfort and adjust care to meet their needs. No matter where I am caring for your pet, I treat them as if they were my own. I believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident knowing their furry family member is receiving loving, dependable care every day.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Lisbon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Lisbon on Rover is $21.65 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,422 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lisbon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Lisbon. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Lisbon.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lisbon. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
