Updated: Jun 6, 2023

Protect your pooch's paws with these pet-friendly indoor spots in Dubai

Because they really are our best friends…

The temperature in Dubai is slowly on the rise and it will soon not be friendly to either humans or pets. But, this doesn’t mean you have to stay home to enjoy some time with your pup as there are several pet-friendly places in Dubai that allow you to chill with your dog indoors.

We reached out to Yvonne (and her adorable pup Boefje), the owner of Doggie Adventures in Dubai to help curate the below list and if you have a furry four-legged tail-wagger, Doggie Adventures in Dubai is one account you need to follow.



Here are 13 indoor pet-friendly places in Dubai to take your dog to during the warmer season.
