Vetic is a Gurgaon-based pet healthcare startup founded in 2022 that delivers human-grade veterinary services through a network of state-of-the-art clinics and digital tools like telehealth consultations, a mobile app for health records and bookings, and comprehensive care including diagnostics, X-rays, surgeries, grooming, and vaccinations.[1][2][3][5] It serves pet parents in India, primarily in Delhi NCR and Bangalore, solving the gap in accessible, modern pet infrastructure by integrating technology for seamless consultations, prescriptions, and multidisciplinary treatments under one roof.[1][2][5] With 107 employees, ₹398.8 Cr (~$47M) in total funding across Series B stages from investors like Bessemer Venture Partners, Lachy Groom, and others, and over 40 clinics, Vetic shows strong growth momentum, including plans to expand from 4 to 15 clinics by mid-2023 amid rising pet adoption.[1][3][4]
Vetic was founded in 2022 by Gaurav Ajmera, former COO at OYO and CBO at Pristyn Care, inspired by his personal experience with his cat Simba's illness, which highlighted the challenges in finding quality pet treatment.[1][2][3][5] This pivotal moment drove Ajmera to create a platform bridging pet healthcare gaps through tech-enabled clinics and telehealth.[1][5] Early traction came via seed funding of $3.7M in November 2022, led by Lachy Groom, enabling tech enhancements, infrastructure builds, and initial clinic expansions in Delhi NCR and Bangalore.[3] The company's evolution emphasizes compassionate, holistic care, drawing from Ajmera's operational expertise in scaling healthcare services.[1][2]
Vetic rides the booming pet care market in India, fueled by rising pet ownership, urbanization, and demand for premium, tech-driven services amid fragmented traditional vet care.[1][3] Timing aligns with post-pandemic pet adoption surges and digital health trends, positioning Vetic to capture growth via scalable clinics and apps in high-potential regions like Delhi NCR and Bangalore.[3] Market forces like increasing disposable incomes and tech adoption favor its model, influencing the ecosystem by standardizing human-like pet healthcare, supporting NGOs, and promoting wellness through free camps—potentially inspiring similar ventures in emerging markets.[2][5]
Vetic is poised for aggressive expansion, building on its Series B funding to scale clinics beyond 40, enhance app features, and deepen tech-medical integration amid sustained pet humanization trends.[1][3] Regulatory support for animal welfare and e-health could accelerate growth, though competition from informal vets may challenge penetration. Its influence may evolve by setting benchmarks for compassionate, accessible pet care, potentially expanding pan-India and exporting the model—transforming how pet parents view healthcare, much like Gaurav's vision sparked by Simba.[5]
Vetic has raised $30.0M across 2 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $26.0M Series C in May 2025.
