About Us
Born From Love. Built For Pets. Backed By Science.
ROse + THeo = ROTH
At Roth Pets, caring for pets is seen as something deeply special. It is not just a routine, but an everyday expression of love. Hygiene should feel gentle, simple, and comforting, not stressful for pets or overwhelming for pet parents.
Born in Mumbai, Roth Pets was founded by veterinarian Dr. Disha Patel, a specialist in clinical animal behaviour, and her partner. They were inspired by life with their dogs, Rose and Theo.
It was Rose and Theo who gave the brand both its name and its meaning:
Like many pets, Rose had sensitive skin and disliked baths, while Theo’s adventurous spirit often led to muddy paws and messy moments. Their everyday needs reflected a challenge faced by pet parents everywhere. Traditional grooming can be difficult, time-consuming, and stressful.
That insight became the beginning of something gentler.
