The cafe first opened its doors to Khobar, in June last year. It is known as the first pet café in kingdom where, until recently, dog-walking was banned from public places.

Barking Lot’s owner, Dalal Ahmed, said she got the idea during her previous visit to the Kingdom. “I came to Saudi Arabia for a visit with my dog but wasn’t allowed to walk on the beach with him. I was very sad and decided to help by opening a coffee shop for people who have dogs and even for those who do not”.

Some can play around, while others are treated to pampering and washes as part of the grooming services offered.
