Mind Your Manners: Pet Etiquette at the Mall

Bringing your pet to SM Supermalls is fun, but it comes with a few rules. Responsible pet parenting ensures safe, clean, and stress-free visits for everyone. From keeping your fur baby leashed to cleaning up after them, these small courtesies matter. Here’s how to be the kind of pet owner fellow shoppers love to meet.

Leash, Carrier, or Stroller—Always

Keep your pet secure at all times to avoid accidents or run-ins with other shoppers and pets.

 

Diaper Up and Clean Up

Accidents happen—be ready with diapers, wipes, and waste bags so you can leave every space as clean as you found it.

 

Respect Boundaries

Avoid placing pets on dining tables, chairs, or inside grocery baskets—it’s about hygiene and keeping shared spaces safe for everyone.

 

Check to Pet-Friendly Zones

Some stores or areas may have restrictions, so check signs and respect access rules.

 

Mind the Noise and Energy

If your pet is stressed or overly excited, take a break at the Paw Park before heading back indoors.

From dining at pet-friendly restos to grooming, shopping for treats, and playtime at the Paw Park, SM Supermalls is perfect for pet days out.
