dict[str, str] is not officially documented but Iterable[str] (excluding str itself) might be "array-like" and would allow dict[str, Any].

Btw. I have a potential workaround for the Iterable[str] vs str, but it's not sure if it will be accepted: python/cpython#112319

In pandas we use python/typing#256 (comment) (but that is for a Sequence, not an Iterable - but Sequence might be more array-like than any iterable).
