Kassy has been doing lots of things for me, personal shopping, dealing with utilities and administrative stuff like changing the name on bills, getting my SNS registered, and handling other official documents I need. She also coordinates deliveries, orders from IKEA, and sets things up in the house. At this point she is basically managing the house and a lot of my personal life, and the communication has been really good. The price feels fair, and overall I have had a good experience.

Filipa was awesome! I hired her to cover for me at my condo meeting while I was away on holiday. She handled everything perfectly and gave me total peace of mind. Super professional and easy to work with, highly recommend!

Sofia helped us make the transition from living in the US to moving to Portugal, and she made things a lot easier for us. She got our utilities connected in our names, helped set up our mobile phones, did shopping for mattresses, pillows, and basic household supplies, and had everything ready when we arrived from the airport, even arranging a driver with a van for us and all our luggage. She has also helped us navigate local government offices and get our utente numbers, fiscal numbers, and bank accounts set up. We have worked with her in the last couple of months and are using her again because the experience has been really good.

Frequently Asked Questions
What expats want to know before hiring personal assistants in Lisbon.
Are there English-speaking personal assistants 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 personal assistants 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 personal assistants 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 personal assistants in Portuguese?
In Portuguese, personal assistants are usually called assistentes pessoais. 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 personal assistants 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.
