Doha weather and your pet
Doha's summers are extremely hot and humid, with daytime highs often above 40ยฐC from May to September. Walks belong to early morning and late evening, and pets should never be left in cars or on balconies in the heat.
Apartment towers on The Pearl and in Lusail have strict building rules, while compounds in Al Waab and Al Gharafa often have shared green space. Share access details and any pet rules with your provider.
Keep vaccination records and any required registration current, and follow your building's or compound's pet rules.

How much does pet care cost in Doha?
Providers in Doha set their own prices in QAR, so you see each provider's rate before you book.

Your payment is held and only released to the provider after the service is completed.
How are providers vetted?
Every provider submits a government ID and a selfie, passes a knowledge test with a 70% pass mark and uploads service-specific documents โ home photos for sitting and boarding, driving licence and vehicle registration for pet taxi, certificates for grooming and training โ before the OnlyPaw team approves them.
What happens in an emergency?
Every active booking has an SOS button in the app. It alerts the other party and the OnlyPaw team straight away. If your pet needs urgent medical care, contact a vet or emergency clinic first.
