In the bustling city of Bengaluru, Sneh Sharma an innovative entrepreneur, embarked on a mission to revolutionize pet care. Alongside her husband, Bhupendra Khanal Sneh co-founded Dogsee in 2015, driven by their love for their Golden Retriever, Mowgli, and a deep concern for pet health.
Dogsee Chew their brainchild, emerged from a profound realization during a trip to the upper Himalayas.
There, they discovered Chhurpi, a hard yak cheese cherished by local communities and inadvertently enjoyed by dogs. This revelation inspired Sneh and Bhupendra to create natural, gluten-free, and grain-free dog treats, challenging the dominance of chemically-laden alternatives.
Dogsee quickly grew, achieving remarkable milestones. With an initial investment of Rs 50 lakh, the startup closed FY22 with a revenue run rate of Rs 100 crore and is ambitiously targeting Rs 300 crore in the current fiscal. Their dedication to quality and natural ingredients has fueled a quarter-on-quarter growth of 10-15%, with a staggering 200% growth over the past two years.
Headquartered in Bengaluru, Dogsee is now a global brand, available in over 5,000 retail stores across 30 countries.
Their flagship product, Dogsee Chew Hard Bars, crafted from cow and yak cheese, has redefined pet treats. The product range includes Puffed Treats and Dogsee Crunch, offering wholesome and nutritious options for dogs.
Sneh’s journey from an MBA graduate to the founder of a full-service digital agency, Ittisa Digital Media, and then to a pioneer in the pet food industry, exemplifies her entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to health and sustainability.
Under her leadership, Dogsee has grown to a team of 200+ employees, driven by a shared passion for pets and well-being.
Dogsee's success is marked by its unique selling propositions: organic, vegetarian treats high in protein and low in carbs, infused with rare Himalayan minerals.
Competing with global giants like Pedigree and Royal Canin, Dogsee has carved a niche in the pet food market by championing vegetarian nutrition for dogs.
Despite initial skepticism about vegetarian dog food, Sneh and Bhupendra convinced pet parents and vets of its benefits through scientific research and nutritional evidence.
Their innovative approach and dedication have positioned Dogsee as a leader in the nascent Indian pet food market, poised for exponential growth.
Looking ahead, Dogsee aims to expand its product portfolio, enhance its global presence, and build a Rs 500+ crore brand in the next three years.
Sneh’s visionary leadership continues to drive Dogsee’s mission of providing healthy, natural treats, ensuring a brighter, healthier future for pets worldwide.Madhuri Awande
