Sharjah weather and your pet
Sharjah shares the UAE's hot, humid summers: from May to September daytime temperatures often exceed 40ยฐC. Keep walks short and early or late, and never leave a pet in a parked car, even briefly.
Most Sharjah pet owners live in apartments, where building rules on pets, lifts and common areas matter; villa living is more common in areas such as Al Zahia. Let your provider know about access and parking before the first visit.
Keep vaccination records and any municipal registration up to date, and check your building's pet policy.

How much does pet care cost in Sharjah?
Providers in Sharjah set their own prices in AED, so you see each provider's rate before you book. At checkout OnlyPaw adds a service fee of 10% of the service price, with a minimum of USD 2 and a maximum of USD 20 (or the equivalent in your local currency), shown before you pay. 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.
