family, the four-legged kind
A note from our founder

I didn’t set out to run a business. I set out to make sure no dog — mine, or yours — ever felt abandoned in a cage.

So every pet who stays here gets what mine do: a real bed, a familiar routine, and someone who learns their name and their funny little quirks on day one. We send you photos every day because that’s exactly what I’d want if it were my boy.

Leave them with us once. You’ll see what I mean.

Sumit · Head Trainer

Calm, light-filled interior of the Swayambhu pet sanctuary
The Swayambhu way

A sanctuary, not a kennel.

Swayambhu means self-existent — whole and at peace on its own. That’s the feeling we build for every animal in our care: calm, understood, and genuinely settled, never merely looked after.

Calm spaces, not cages

Climate-controlled rooms, soft bedding and natural light — comfort that feels like home.

Force-free method

Certified, reward-based training. No fear, no force, no shock — ever.

Total transparency

We show you the routine, the spaces and daily photos. Nothing hidden.

Why owners trust us

The peace of mind is the point.

Everything here is built to answer the one question that keeps pet parents up at night: is my dog or cat truly okay?

Force-free, always

Certified, positive-reinforcement trainers. No fear, no force, no shock collars — only methods backed by science.

24/7 supervision

Trained caretakers on-site around the clock, CCTV throughout, and a partner vet on call for peace of mind.

Daily photo updates

You’ll never wonder how they’re doing. Expect cheerful photos and honest notes, every single day.

Small batches

We deliberately limit guests so every pet gets real attention, space to play and a genuinely restful stay.

A true second home

Climate-controlled spaces, soft bedding, familiar food and routines — comfort that feels like home, not a cage.

Health first

Vaccination checks, parasite-free policy and tailored feeding so your pet leaves healthier than they arrived.

How it works

Booking your pet in is the easy part.

Four simple, no-pressure steps from first hello to a happy reunion.

01

Tell us about your pet

Send an inquiry with your pet’s age, temperament and what you’re hoping for. We reply within a few hours.

02

Free meet & assessment

A no-pressure visit so we can meet your pet, answer questions and recommend the right programme or stay.

03

A plan made for them

We tailor the routine, food and goals to your pet — then keep you in the loop with daily photo updates.

04

Reunion & handover

You get a calmer, happier pet plus the coaching to keep the progress going long after they’re home.

Good questions

The things every pet parent asks.

Still unsure about something? Send us a message — we love these conversations.

What vaccinations does my pet need?

All guests must be up to date on core vaccinations (and a kennel-cough booster for dogs). Just bring the records to your meet & assessment — we’ll guide you if anything is pending.

Will I get updates while my pet is with you?

Every day. You’ll receive photos and an honest note on how they ate, played and slept. Luxury Suite guests also get a daily video call.

What training methods do you use?

Strictly force-free, positive-reinforcement methods. We never use fear, choke or shock tools — only kind, science-based techniques that build lasting trust.

Can I bring my pet’s own food and bedding?

Please do. Keeping their usual food and a familiar blanket makes the stay far less stressful. We’ll stick to your feeding routine to the letter.

Do you board cats and dogs together?

Never. Cats stay in a separate, quiet, dog-free wing with their own condos and play time, handled by cat-savvy caretakers.

What if my pet needs medication?

We’re happy to administer prescribed medication at no extra cost. Our partner vet is on call should anything come up during the stay.
