Questions pet owners ask.

Mori is a pet-care companion for the UAE. It plans your pet’s day, sends reminders, keeps vaccines, medication and weight in one place, answers everyday questions through Maggy, and helps you find vets, groomers, boarding and pet-friendly places. It supports dogs, cats, birds and falcons.

Mori is free today and works in your phone’s browser; you can add it to your Home Screen. The iPhone and Android apps are not published yet. Join the waitlist and we’ll send one email when they are.

Maggy is Mori’s calm, friendly assistant. She gives general guidance about everyday pet care, finds places from Mori’s own directory and answers UAE pet-rule questions from checked notes. She never diagnoses, prescribes or suggests doses. If it might be an emergency, she shows 24-hour clinics with phone numbers first.

From each provider’s own website, government pages, insurer lists, tourism authorities and published guides, plus map positions from OpenStreetMap. Every place shows its sources and the date it was checked. The directory holds 254 care places and 60 pet outings, last checked 23 October 2026.

It means the details come from public pages and the business has not yet confirmed them to Mori. Always check hours and prices with the provider before you go.

The area picker covers all seven emirates (Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah) and Al Ain. The directory is deepest in Dubai. We list what we can source and say where we cannot.

No account is needed. Your pets, photos, tasks and records stay on your phone, and you can export or erase them in Settings. Mori has no advertising and no tracking.

English works today. Arabic is being added next, with Russian and Filipino planned after that.

Cats and dogs in Dubai must be microchipped and registered with Dubai Municipality, normally through a licensed vet clinic, and registration is tied to up-to-date vaccinations. Rules change, so confirm with the municipality or a licensed vet.

Rabies vaccination is required for cats and dogs in the UAE and must be kept current (annual booster is the norm); it is also central to import rules. Confirm current requirements with your vet or the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment.

Dogs must be leashed in public; most public beaches, municipal parks, malls and public transport do not admit dogs. Use designated dog parks, the Dubai Islands dog beach, and venues that explicitly welcome pets. Mori’s local guide lists designated dog parks and pet-friendly venues with their stated rules.

The UAE bans certain dog breeds under Annex 2 of Federal Law No. 22 of 2016 (as amended by MOCCAE), with exemptions for service, emotional-support and medical dogs. Lists in secondary sources differ, so always check MOCCAE's current list.

Imports need a MOCCAE import permit, ISO microchip, valid rabies vaccination (plus titer test from high-risk countries) and an official health certificate; exports need a MOCCAE veterinary health certificate. Read our guide for where sources disagree.

From roughly May to September, walk only very early or late, test the ground with your hand, keep walks short, carry water and know the signs of heatstroke. This is general guidance, not veterinary advice.

Call your vet or a 24-hour clinic straight away and do not wait for an app. Mori shows 24-hour clinics that state on their own sites that they are open round the clock, but always phone ahead.

Yes. Vets, groomers, boarding places, sitters and trainers can confirm or correct their details through our partners page, and anyone can report a mistake from a listing. Corrections are checked, dated and noted on the page.
