Travelling? Here’s How to Save on Pet Boarding or Sitting in the UAE
Summer is upon us which means most of us are making plans to escape the desert heat and will have to start exploring pet boarding and pet sitting options.
While we are away, we want to make sure our pets are in good hands and well taken care of. But we also know that this can become very expensive, especially if you’re out of the country for a few weeks.
Luckily Treats Card has partnered up with some amazing businesses that can offer a solution for you and provide a discount so you’re not only assured your pet is well-taken care of, but you can also save.

Boarding
The most common solution when travelling is to choose a pet boarding facility. Your pet will have their own private room within the facility and apart from that, daily playtime in a common area.
Dogs are usually divided into small groups where they can play together, and cats are often let out of their space to enjoy some playtime in the common area alone.
There are many pet boarding facilities to choose from. Some are bigger than others with some of them even having a swimming pool.
