Holidays with a Dog

Do you want to travel with your pet?

All dogs deserve to be taken on holiday, and it's as easy as you think and it doesn't cost a fortune.

We will help with:

- documents for the dog to enter and leave the United Arab Emirates

- book a flight with your dog as checked baggage (from the UAE back it has to be cargo unless the airline approves otherwise) - the flight will be booked through a travel agency

- a cheaper alternative is to travel with your dog via Saudi Arabia, as the dog travels as checked luggage, and from Riyadh we can arrange transport by car to deliver the dog to your home.

- we recommend places where you can take your dog on holiday

- We can assist with dog relocation throughout the Middle East (KSA, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, UAE) by land or air and provide guidance on which locations are the most dog friendly in the GCC.

How to start planning your trip

  • Send us a message on WhatsApp

    Tell us where you want to travel and we'll check the requirements your dog will need. We only help with EU and US countries (on the form, please include your dog's breed and size, which may determine whether your dog can travel in the cabin).

    For the UK dogs must be transported as CARGO so we recommend contacting the haulage company directly - but we can still help with import and export permits.

  • Book a Flight

    We will connect you with our travel agent who will provide you with the best alternative for flights and your dog. Your dog will be added to your booking on the agent's website immediately (Emirates cannot be booked through the portal, you have to call them directly, so we do not recommend this).

  • Once everything is confirmed and booked

    We will complete the application for a health certificate, import permit, export permit with you, and all necessary vaccinations and deworming will be checked and performed by our vet.

    Once everything is done, you will be ready to fly
