Brinda Roy

Founder, PetMama

PetMama was founded in 2021 by Brinda Roy along with a fellow pet parent and both wanting to make pet parenting easier for themselves and other pet parents.

Brinda is a communications and PR professional who quit the corporate world to dive into entrepreneurship. After completing her high school from La Martiniere for Girls in Kolkata, she pursued a degree in Psychology from Sophia College for Women in Mumbai. She followed that up with a Masters in International Communication from the University of Leeds in UK. She then immersed herself in the PR and communications with some of India's leading PR agencies and then moved to Corporate Communications. She was part of Uber's Communications team and led communications for East India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. She then led communications for Vikram Solar one of India's faster growing Solar panel manufacturers. But the entrepreneurial path was a growing need and the idea for PetMama was one she had been nursing since college. So when she found a fellow pet mom facing the same issues in Khushboo they decided to make PetMama a reality.

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
