Best 10 Pet-Friendly
Communities in Dubai
Keeping a pet in Dubai isn’t always allowed everywhere, so it needs to be clarified with the owner of the housing you rent, or the developer of the property if you are the owner. Therefore, if you have a pet, it is important to carefully choose the community in which you will rent or purchase a property. Pet-friendly districts have open areas, parks and walking paths so that you and your pet can go out for a walk or run at any time. We have prepared an article with a list of the best communities with both apartments and villas to help you choose the right pet-friendly neighbourhood in the emirate of Dubai.
Best Communities
with Pet-Friendly
Apartments in Dubai
There are many pet-friendly residential communities in Dubai with advantages such as open areas and close proximity to parks. It should be noted that the rules for keeping pets largely depend on your landlord. In the case of renting an apartment in Dubai, it is necessary to check with the landlord whether pets are allowed in the apartment, not just in the common areas of the building.

Other Pet-Friendly
Communities in Dubai
In addition to the above communities, there are some other pet-friendly districts in the emirate of Dubai as well: The Meadows, The Lakes, Jumeirah Islands, Jumeirah Village Triangle.
It is important to remember, that despite the fact that all the above-mentioned communities are pet-friendly, landlords have their own rules regarding bringing pets into individual real estate. For example, in some cases, dog-proof must be required before moving in. Developers also can have their own rules about which types of pets are allowed in the community in both cases of renting or purchasing real estate.
There is a very scrupulous attitude towards pets in Dubai and the whole UAE, as a result of which it is important for pet owners to follow generally accepted rules, such as the registration of a pet in the Veterinary Services Section in Dubai Municipality, annual vaccinations at a veterinary clinic, walking with dogs only in permitted places and so on.
