Relocating a dog or cat to or from City Walk?
General guidance is free in the guides. Bespoke document review and coordination are paid.
City Walk is one of Dubai’s most walkable, pet-friendly neighbourhoods — a modern low-rise urban village of open promenades, boutique apartments and tree-lined streets, popular with professionals and couples who keep dogs and cats. That relaxed, ground-level lifestyle makes it a community we relocate pets to and from regularly. Whether you are arriving from abroad into a City Walk residence or leaving the UAE for a new posting, we handle the permits, paperwork and transport so you can focus on settling in.

Moving To or From City Walk With a Pet
Most City Walk relocations are international — professionals and couples arriving from the UK, USA, India, Australia and across Europe, or leaving Dubai for a new chapter. The requirements depend on your origin or destination country, but the core steps are the same: a valid microchip, current vaccinations, a government health certificate, and a MOCCAE permit valid for 90 days. Confirm the current MOCCAE import-permit fee and arrival-release fee on the official portal; fees may change.
From low-risk countries the timeline is typically 2–6 weeks. A rabies titer test is only required when moving from or to certain high-risk countries — in those cases plan the titer sample within 90 days before travel (result ≥0.5 IU/ml) — a sample window, not a wait after the draw. We map your exact timeline before you commit.
Pet-Friendly Living in City Walk
City Walk is built around its pedestrian promenades, so it is one of the easier Dubai neighbourhoods for dog owners — wide pet-friendly walkways, shaded streets and open plazas make daily walks straightforward. Most residents keep dogs and cats in apartments, and while many buildings are pet-friendly, policies vary, so check your tenancy terms. We can advise on crate acclimation for apartment pets ahead of travel day.
Cost of Pet Relocation in City Walk
Total cost depends on your route, pet size and service level — typically AED 2,000 to AED 25,000. Government fees include the MOCCAE import permit plus an arrival-release fee (confirm live portal amounts; fees may change); the rest covers veterinary work, crate, cargo and coordination.
Local Veterinary Support in City Walk
City Walk and the surrounding Al Wasl and Jumeirah areas are well served by veterinary clinics for the microchip, vaccination and health-certificate steps your pet needs before travel. We coordinate timing with your vet so every document is valid on travel day — and if you prefer, we can recommend a vetted clinic nearby.
