Milan is a working city: long office days, quick weekend escapes to the lakes and mountains, and most dogs living in condominium flats. Its parks and canals give plenty of walking options, and a reliable walker or sitter keeps routines on track when the calendar fills up.

Milan has hot, humid summers with mosquitoes and afternoon storms, and cold, often foggy winters. Spring and autumn are mild and good for long walks; August is when much of the city goes on holiday.
In humid summer weather, walk early and late, stick to shady parks and ask your vet about mosquito-borne parasites such as heartworm.
On foggy winter evenings, use a reflective collar or light so your dog is visible to drivers and cyclists.
Providers set their own prices. Where approved providers in Milan have listed a service, the lowest current price is shown here.
Lowest price currently set by an approved provider in Milan, before the OnlyPaw service fee. Your total depends on what you book and is shown in the app before you pay.
Many Milanese live in condominium buildings with a portineria and courtyard; the condominium rules may cover pets in shared areas. Tell your provider about the porter, lifts and door codes.
In Italy dogs must be microchipped and registered in the regional dog registry (anagrafe canina). In towns, dogs must be on a lead no longer than 1.5 metres in public places, owners must carry a muzzle and pick up after their dog, and fenced dog areas are the places to let them run.
ATM’s metro, trams and buses admit dogs under specific conditions (lead, muzzle and ticket rules), and small pets travel in carriers — check ATM’s current rules. A pet taxi is easiest for the vet, the groomer or Linate and Malpensa.

Yes. OnlyPaw is available worldwide, including Milan. Because it's a marketplace, the providers you can book depend on who has been approved near your address — the app shows who's available before you pay.
Providers in Milan set their own prices, so you see each provider's rate in the app before you book. At checkout OnlyPaw adds a service fee of 10% of the service price, with a minimum of USD 2 and a maximum of USD 20 (or the equivalent in your local currency), shown before you pay. Your payment is held and only released to the provider after the service is completed.
In fenced dog areas (aree cani) in many city parks, such as those in Parco Sempione. Elsewhere dogs must stay on a lead of up to 1.5 metres.
Yes — humid summers in northern Italy bring mosquitoes that can carry parasites such as heartworm. Ask your vet about prevention, and avoid stagnant water on walks.
Every provider submits a government ID and a selfie, passes a knowledge test with a 70% pass mark and uploads service-specific documents — home photos for sitting and boarding, driving licence and vehicle registration for pet taxi, certificates for grooming and training — before the OnlyPaw team approves them.
Every active booking has an SOS button in the app. It alerts the other party and the OnlyPaw team straight away. If your pet needs urgent medical care, contact a vet or emergency clinic first.
Booking, payment, chat and tracking all happen in the app — on iPhone and Android.
