Licensed vets and local rules
Only licensed vets may practise. Under the federal law on practising veterinary medicine, practising without a licence carries a penalty of one year's imprisonment and a fine between AED 10,000 and AED 200,000. Ask the vet for the licence and check that the visit is run by a licensed UAE veterinarian. Dubai Municipality's Veterinary Services Section protects animal health and welfare in the emirate and offers preventive and curative services, so it is a useful reference.
Season and timing in the heat
Summers are very hot from May to September, which makes travel with an animal in a car harder and raises the risk of heat stress. The mild months from November to March suit a home visit best, when the drive and waiting time matter less. In summer, ask whether the vet can come early in the morning or in the evening, when temperatures are lower.
What to tell the vet before the visit
Describe the symptoms, the animal (dog, cat or other), its breed, its weight in kilograms and its age. Give your address and area, because coverage differs: one Abu Dhabi provider includes travel anywhere on the island and in nearby areas such as Al Reem, Saadiyat and Yas, while Dubai clinics quote their own visit fees. Say when you want the visit and how many visits you expect. Ask whether the consultation is included in the call-out fee, and whether vaccinations and medicines are billed separately.
