Walkies & Whiskers
with Tom & Petrina
Hi! We’re Tom & Petrina: A British–Canadian couple living in Lisbon with a lifelong habit of adopting pets, befriending animals, and saying “yes” to looking after other people’s four-legged furry friends.
Who We Are
Between the two of us, we’ve spent a suspicious number of years walking dogs, spoiling cats, and being the go-to "pet people" for every friend who’s ever needed a trustworthy human with opposable thumbs.Our approach is simple: make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and maybe even a bit overindulged. Walks can be slow and relaxed or we can run around the park until one of us finally cracks. Cuddles are frequent, and yes, we probably talk to your dog like they’re a person.So if you’re looking for reliable humans who don’t just tolerate your pet but secretly (and not-so-secretly) prefer them to most people... that’s us. 🐾
Our Offer
We offer dog walks, cat care, home visits, and sometimes boarding. We operate with love, care, and a good amount of belly rubs (for the pets, just to be clear).Whether your dog needs a leg stretch, your cat demands dignified company, or you just want someone reliable who won’t mix up the food bowls, we’re here.We’re based in Alfama and can pick up dogs in central areas. We generally like to meet you and your pet first, to sniff each other out (metaphorically) and make sure everyone feels good about it.Looking for pet people who actually are pet people? Drop us a message on Whatsapp to find a time to meet :)
