Scooby’s Club has raised $250K in its pre-seed funding round. TDV Partners led the investment round. Scooby’s Club is a network of high-end dog care centres targeting residential neighbourhoods and providing high-quality day and overnight boarding for dogs.

The $250K funding secured will be used smartly to drive the startup’s expansion in operations, recruitment, and service improvement. Its main focus is to provide high-quality short-term and overnight pet care services that meet the increasingly sophisticated needs of working professionals and modern pet parents.

Fund utilization and operational framework

Scooby’s Club aims to position itself on two new properties in Bengaluru in the next 6-12 months using the capital boost of $250K. In addition to land expansion, a major part of the investment will include employing and developing qualified dog coaches. 

The startup places significant value on professional staff members to provide an expert-led experience for every dog in their care. Established in 2025 by Animeha Singh & Ankit Guota, the firm aims to bridge the gap between urban realities of pet parenting by offering dependable, structured, and professionally managed care within residential settings.

Operational models for Scooby’s Club include the careful integration of canine behavioural elements with suitable indoor spaces within residential sites. All dogs are carefully sorted and temperament tested to prioritise safety, with lower-stress-level socialisation grouped by physical size. 

All of the company facilities are fully indoor and climate-controlled, with the presence of carefully curated odor, visual, and color aspects that provide mental enrichment for the animals present. Scooby’s Club provides allergen-sensitive care and personal attention, along with live 24×7 CCTV, which pet parents enjoy, granting them full visibility of Scooby’s daily activities and experiences.

Long-term vision and industry growth

After its initial presence in Bengaluru, Scooby’s Club has set an ambitious long-term growth plan. The company plans to develop a nationwide chain of 100 properties across key Indian metros. 

Scooby’s Club is set to create a predictable presence in some of the city’s major markets by operating through a neighbourhood-led model, ensuring top-tier dog care is close to the plate for pet parents.

The funding for Scooby’s Club is also indicative of the overall expansion of the Indian pet care industry. The company says India’s pet care market is expected to reach ₹6,000 crore and grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 20%. 

Overall pet ownership rates are rising about 5% year-on-year. There is a significant opportunity for organized and competent providers of structured and professional pet care services due to this explosion in pet ownership and consumer spending.

Conclusion

Scooby’s Club is currently scaling its specialized pet care offerings with the $250K in pre-seed funding led by TDV Partners. The startup has plans to expand to 2 new sites in Bengaluru and eventually plans to construct 100 properties in major Indian cities, capturing the ₹6,000 crore Indian pet care market.

In this 20% annual growth industry, Scooby’s Club aims to meet the changing expectations of contemporary pet parents through a combination of canine behavioral expertise, climate-controlled shelters, clarity via 24×7 CCTV, and professional dog trainers.
