    SINGAPORE-BASED ZumVet, a startup offering remote pet care services, has raised US$3.7 million in Series A funding led by Quest Ventures and existing investor Pine Venture Partners, and joined by Pentepebble Holdings.

    The startup provides remote care, home-based diagnostics and self-administered treatment programmes for pet owners in South-east Asia. It previously secured funding from Purpose Venture Capital and Aetius Capital.

    ZumVet will use the most-recently raised capital to expand its offerings across more pet species and expand into new markets.

    “We have been working with the ZumVet team from its early days and have witnessed the expansion of its services globally and are proud that the team has stayed nimble and resilient in the last 3 years of running the business despite the global pandemic,” said Hyuk-Tae Kwon, co-founder and CEO of Pine Venture Partners.
