OUR STORY
Urban Paws started in the mid-2000s as a small animal concept and has since grown into a full-service pet care brand.
Our mission is to make essential pet services accessible and supportive for both pets and their owners in Singapore’s urban landscape. We provide pet services designed to enrich the lives of city-dwelling furkids and support the diverse needs of their owners.
We seek to address the physical, emotional, and social needs of pets while easing the responsibilities of urban pet ownership. Our foundation of empathy and expertise ensures that every service is delivered with the highest standards of care, creating a trusted community for both furkids and their families across our island-wide locations.

LAURA
Founder & Behaviourist
Marrying her love for business and passion for animals, Laura founded Urban Paws as a full service concept. Realising that companion animals have a deep well of emotions and needs that often go unaddressed in our hustle and bustle, Urbans Paws was founded on the basis of empathy, compassion and authenticity.
Laura now derives the most fulfillment from rehabilitating dogs with behavioural issues.
JESTER
Daycare Lead
With many years of animal husbandry and handling under his belt, "Papa Jester" is incredibly patient with even the most stubborn of dogs. A nature lover and free spirit, Jester loves nothing better than to enjoy the great outdoors with his pack of furry pals. Jester is also the night-time guardian of dogs on staycation.
LYNN
Small Mammal Groomer
Having had all sorts of pets, large and small, her entire life, Lynn ensures everyone is well-taken care of in her ‘hood – be they your furkids, our furkids, her minions, the stray cats roaming about or your kids roaming about (ok, not quite.)
She specializes in grooming for small animals and does an especially good job with the most timid of pets.
QINGHUI
Groomer
Beginning her journey with Urban Paws as a (strangely) fearful Veterinarian Technician intern, Qinghui has since grown by leaps and bounds in her handling confidence. Going on to take a grooming course, Qing Hui is now a well rounded full fledged handler with grooming chops to boot.
WINNIE
Groomer
Starting out with us as a design intern, Winnie took the leap to pursue what she was really passionate about - grooming and handling, to become a core member of the Urban Paws team. Winnie's aesthetic sense, natural handling and dedication shines through in her groom sessions which she keeps as happy and safe as possible.
Charcoal, her XXL Singapore Special adoptee, senior poodle Cookie and Bunny Pedro are treasured members of her furry tribe at home.
EINSTEIN
Retired Guest Relations
Undeniably the most recognizable face of Urban Paws, Einstein's stoic affection has become the stuff of legends. Though he has now strutted over the rainbow bridge, his legacy lives on. His strong work ethic compelled him to not only pose luxuriantly with you for photo shoots but also offer his signature paw massages—especially if you were a high roller (read: brimming with treats). Einstein's charm and antics remain paw-sitively unforgettable.
GINGER
Security Guard
You can always spot Ginger out and about on his sentry duty. Except when he's eating, napping or cleaning his paws. Ok, so maybe 2-hour sentry duty. When he feels like it.
