Dubai Marina is one of the busiest places to live in the city. Residents work long hours, travel often and spend their free time out. For anyone with a dog, a cat or another pet at home, that raises a daily question: who looks after it when you can’t?

If you live in or near Dubai Marina and need pet sitting, pet boarding or dog walking, Pawland is here. We are the No. 1 and highest reviewed pet sitting company in the UAE, and we care for pets across the Marina every day.

Life With a Pet in Dubai Marina

Most Marina homes are apartments in high-rise towers. Pets here spend much of their time indoors, and they depend on their owners for exercise, company and routine.

That is not always easy to provide. Workdays run late. Business trips and holidays take you away for days or weeks. Dogs need walks at cooler hours, which are often the hours you are commuting. Outdoor space for dogs is limited too, as dogs are restricted on parts of the waterfront and on the beach.

A pet in the Marina needs dependable help, close to home. That is what we provide.

Pet Sitting in Dubai Marina

With pet sitting, a Pawland sitter comes to your apartment. Your pet stays in its own home, with its own bed, food and routine.

A visit covers fresh food and water, a clean litter tray or cage, playtime and company. For dogs, it includes a toilet break. Visits can be short drop-ins during the day, or the sitter can stay overnight when you travel.

Pet sitting suits cats in particular, as well as birds, rabbits and any pet that is happiest at home. 

Pet Boarding for Dubai Marina Residents

With pet boarding, your pet stays in a Pawland sitter’s home while you are away. It is a home, not a kennel. There are no cages, and your pet has company throughout the day.

Your pet keeps its normal mealtimes, and dogs are walked daily. This is a good choice for dogs that dislike being alone, for young pets, and for longer trips. 

Dog Walking in Dubai Marina

A dog in an apartment needs its walks more than any other. Our walkers take your dog out in the early morning or after sunset, when the ground is cool. Each walk is matched to your dog’s age and energy, and your dog has the walker’s full attention.

Regular walks keep a dog healthy and calm at home. They are ideal for workdays, late meetings and days when the cooler hours do not fit your schedule. 

Which Service Do You Need

  • You work long days. A midday sitter visit for a cat, or a daily walk for a dog.
  • You are out for the evening. An evening visit for dinner and company.
  • You are away for a weekend. Daily visits at home, or a stay in a sitter’s home.
  • You are travelling for a week or more. Overnight sitting at your apartment, or pet boarding.
  • Your dog needs more exercise. Regular dog walking through the week.

If you are unsure, tell us about your pet and your schedule, and we will suggest what fits.
