Our Story
Dylan Ellingson
Founder and CEO
"H.A.L.O. began with loss. Two of my dogs died ten days apart, and I couldn't save them. That grief opened my eyes to what happens on the other side: clinics so short-staffed they can't provide overnight care, technicians carrying twice the caseload of a human ICU nurse, teams so stretched that animals slip through the gaps. The blind spot that took my dogs is the same one putting thousands of post-op patients at risk every night. So I'm building H.A.L.O. to be the monitoring layer those hours deserve, because no one should have to know what it feels like to lose an animal that should have made it."
Accuracy
Clinical-grade, not consumer-grade. Every sensor, alert, and data point is held to the standard of a life-or-death decision.
Compassion
Staff are patients too. We design for the burned-out technician with forty seconds between kennels.
Accessibility
Continuous monitoring shouldn’t be a luxury for ER hospitals. We build for the small, independent clinic just as seriously as the downtown ER.
