Our ServicesPet Relocation Services Dubai: compare the tiers
Choose how much of the move we coordinate, then open the page for inbound, outbound, door-to-door or pet taxi. What each tier includes is on the prices page. A proposal follows once we know the pet and the route.
General guidance is free in the guides. Bespoke document review and coordination are paid.
Direct answer
How do Dubai pet relocation service tiers differ?
Tiers change who holds each task, not the law. PawPilot is document guidance. PawPartner adds booking and travel-day. PawVIP adds a dedicated manager. Compare the table below, then open the matching service page. WhatsApp +971504782999.
Inclusions and exclusions for PawPilot, PawPartner and PawVIP are on prices. This page compares the tiers. Door-to-door coordination for pet relocation in Dubai is our Dubai pet relocation service. Inbound arrivals use pet relocation to Dubai, step by step. Departures use pet relocation from Dubai. Ground transfers use local pet transport and pet taxi service.
Start from the homepage overview if you are still choosing a direction, or from the routes hub if you already know the country.

Add-on services
Optional pieces, quoted only when the route needs them.
Travel insurance coordination
We help you ask the right coverage questions. We do not sell a numbered policy from this page.
Boarding contingency
If a document or flight slips, we arrange temporary boarding with a vetted partner — quoted when needed.
Pet nanny / escort
A trained escort can accompany some journeys. Availability is confirmed per route, not assumed.
Pre-travel health package
Clinic exam, health certificate and parasite timing arranged with partner vets.
Door-to-door ground
Collection and delivery, including the pet taxi / ground page when the job never leaves the road.
Expedited document handling
We prioritise the file and the portal steps. Government clocks still belong to the portal, not to us.
Open the service page for your move
After you pick a tier, open the service page that matches the move.
Door-to-door coordination through Dubai: documents, crate, cargo and the last mile on one WhatsApp thread.
Arrival-side import filing when the route is already chosen and you need the inbound document chain named before cargo is booked.
Departure-side export handling when the destination file — not the Dubai cargo slot — sets the clock.
Climate-controlled pet taxi and ground transfers inside Dubai and to Abu Dhabi. This is the road product, not international cargo.
Multi-country corridor planning when Dubai is a hub in a longer journey, not the only origin or destination.
Inbound-only: first vet visit through the 90-day MOCCAE permit to the first week in a new Dubai home.
Outbound-only: destination rules first, then the 30-day UAE export health certificate and departure from DXB or DWC.
Dog-specific crate sizing, breed eligibility and apartment notes on top of the shared federal permit chain.
Cat-specific carrier acclimation and quiet-arrival notes — same MOCCAE steps, a different crate file.
Help with the import or export permit filing. The step-by-step rules stay on the permit guide.
Dedicated aircraft when scheduled cabin, baggage or cargo will not accept the animal. Quoted after we know the route.
A dedicated lift shared with other pets — midpoint between scheduled cargo and a full jet. Market EUR band as context; firm seat is Get a Quote.
Flight modes and airline guides
Door-to-door is the coordination service. These cards show how the pet can fly, including two charter options that are quoted separately.
Compare all six modes: cabin, checked baggage, manifest cargo, private jet, shared charter and door-to-door.
Commercial coordination when a scheduled aircraft is the wrong product. Get a Quote only.
A dedicated lift shared with other pets. Labelled competitor seats on that page; DPR firm seat is Get a Quote.
The UAE cabin exception — eligibility, 8 kg limit, AUH arrival. Cabin fees change; confirm at booking. Emirates / flydubai / Air Arabia: no cats or dogs in cabin (falcons excepted).
Educational SkyCargo process. Airline animal-charge tiers USD 500 / 650 / 800 (source: Emirates); freight quoted per route/weight — not a DPR cargo price.
When accompanied hold travel is allowed — and why Dubai-ending itineraries cannot use it.
