A guide to living with pets around Mundhwa.
For pet parents, a weekend plan can be as simple as a morning walk, a coffee at a pet-friendly café, a grooming appointment or an afternoon spent watching their dog discover a new space. Around Mundhwa and East Pune, this everyday lifestyle is becoming easier, with a growing network of pet-friendly cafés, grooming salons, pet stores and recreational spaces spread across the neighbourhoods surrounding Mundhwa.
At the heart of this ecosystem is Doggieland, a dedicated dog park in Mundhwa that gives pets a space to exercise, play and socialise. The presence of a dedicated facility so close to home reflects the growing demand for pet-oriented spaces in this part of Pune.
A short drive away, Koregaon Park offers some of the city's most established pet-friendly experiences. The Pet Cafe Pune on North Main Road is designed specifically around pets, while Lune Cafe and Patisserie is also listed as pet-friendly and offers outdoor seating. The wider Koregaon Park Annexe Mundhwa area has several restaurants and cafés that welcome pets, making it easy to combine an evening walk with coffee or a meal.
For pet parents who prefer spending time outdoors, Kalyani Nagar adds another dimension to the lifestyle. .
The Flour Works, with its garden-style outdoor seating, is known as a pet-friendly spot, while Coffee Nation offers a relaxed pet-friendly café setting. The neighbourhood's leafy streets and open areas also lend themselves naturally to morning and evening walks.
Pet care is another important part of the ecosystem. In Kalyani Nagar, options include Twix and Butch Professional Pet Salon, Spa & Boutique and The Caring Furrs Professional Pet Salon. In Kharadi, pet parents can access grooming services at The Urban Paws, Sniffy Nose and Classy Royal Pet Grooming & Aquarium. Around Koregaon Park, services include The KP Pet's, PETSHALA SPA STUDIO and Pets Spot, giving residents convenient access to regular grooming and pet-care needs.
Even Magarpatta has pet-care options, including Heads Up For Tails Pet Store & Spa, offering grooming and pet products within the township. For pet parents who need boarding or daycare, services such as Pets Hangover Pet Boarding and Pet Park Kharadi and Pets Hangover Daycare and Resort in Ghorpadi provide options when pets need care while their owners are away.
For residents of Mundhwa, the advantage is therefore not just having one pet-friendly destination nearby. It has an entire ecosystem within the wider East Pune neighbourhood from a morning walk in Keshavnagar to coffee in Koregaon Park, grooming in Kharadi or a weekend outing around Kalyani Nagar and Magarpatta.
Because when a neighbourhood becomes part of your everyday life, it should have room for every member of the family, paws, tails and all.
