Dr Paws was founded by Udit Gadkary and Rakesh Santhapur in 2024. It is a Bengaluru-based veterinary startup committed to transforming pet healthcare across India. As of today, it has clinics in Indiranagar, Dollars Colony, and HSR Layout – prominent localities in Bangalore. The chain of clinics offers a comprehensive range of services like consultations, emergency surgeries, diagnostics, grooming, physiotherapy, and retail.
Dr. Paws has a holistic approach to pet wellness. The clinics are designed to provide a stress-free environment for both the pet and the parent, featuring dedicated spaces for cats and a focus on comfort for all pets. The medical team emphasizes transparency and trust, ensuring necessary treatments tailored to each pet's needs.
Beyond clinical services, Dr. Paws offers membership plans that provide value and convenience for pet parents. These plans cover essential health services, making routine care more accessible. Additionally, the Dr. Paws mobile app allows for easy appointment booking and real-time health updates, enhancing the overall pet care experience.
In May 2024, Dr. Paws secured $938,000 (approximately ₹7.8 crore) in a seed funding round led by Sauce.vc, with participation from angel investors including Ankit Nagori (Curefoods), Rahul Sharma (Zetwerk), Naresh Krishnaswamy (Cult.fit), and Abhishek Goyal (Tracxn) . As on December 2024, their post money valuation stands at $4.84M.
With a mission to provide compassionate, comprehensive care, Dr. Paws continues to grow, earning the trust of pet owners through its dedication to quality and innovation.
