BhaoBhao, a home based pet grooming venture, has announced the successful closure of $200,000 in angel investment. Founded in July this year by Aditi Sanganeria and Anshika Maheshwari in Mumbai, the startup represents a growing trend in India’s evolving pet services sector, offering doorstep grooming solutions for pet owners.
Addressing Market Pain Points
The inception of BhaoBhao stems from the founders’ personal experiences with inadequately trained pet groomers and the logistical challenges of transporting pets for grooming services. This founder market alignment has enabled the startup to develop a comprehensive solution that addresses genuine customer pain points in the pet care ecosystem.
The company’s differentiated approach centers on extensive groomer training programs that encompass the entire service delivery process. Groomers receive specialized instruction on pet interaction protocols, comfort management techniques, and maintaining cleanliness standards throughout the service visit.
Strong Market Performance
Since its launch, BhaoBhao has demonstrated impressive market traction within Mumbai’s premium pet care segment. The startup currently offers at home grooming services for both dogs and cats, with service fees ranging from Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,000 per visit. This positioning reflects the company’s focus on delivering premium quality services to discerning pet owners.
The startup’s performance metrics indicate strong customer satisfaction and retention. BhaoBhao has successfully served over 3,000 clients and maintains a 95% repeat customer rate, demonstrating the effectiveness of their service model and customer experience approach.
Expansion Strategy
With the recently secured funding, BhaoBhao plans to expand its service coverage beyond current select neighborhoods in Mumbai to reach additional localities. The company has also outlined ambitious growth plans, with ongoing discussions to raise between $4-5 million by the end of this year to support broader market expansion and service enhancement initiatives.
This funding development positions BhaoBhao to capitalize on India’s rapidly growing pet care market, where increasing pet ownership and rising disposable incomes are driving demand for premium pet services.
