Our Story
It all started with Omi.
“Omi’s health struggles made me realize the system wasn’t built for our pets—or for the people who love them.”
When I first met my dog Omi, our bond felt ancient. He made me better simply by being himself. Loving him meant protecting him.
When he developed food sensitivities—throwing up, uncomfortable, not himself—I trusted the system. Vet visits said everything was “normal.” But at home, I watched him suffer quietly.
What followed were months of trial and error: food changes, testing, tracking symptoms. Trying to understand a dog who couldn’t tell me what hurt. That’s when it became clear: the standard of care for pets is decades behind the love we have for them. Omi Health is a call to raise that standard.
We’re building a new model of pet care—proactive, data-driven, and deeply human—so you never have to guess when something’s wrong. Because our pets give us everything. They deserve care that meets the depth of that bond.

“When I met Sindu at Harvard Business School, we bonded over the same frustration. We loved our dogs deeply, yet felt powerless in a reactive system.”
My dog Charlie suffered from chronic ear infections. We spent thousands on appointments, but every visit felt the same. Generic one-size-fits-all solutions. Nothing tailored to Charlie that actually worked long-term.
At the same time, I tracked everything about my own health. My runs on Strava. Recovery scores. Sleep. Readiness. I knew exactly how my body was doing. But for Charlie? Almost no signal. I wanted to know how to care for Charlie’s unique biology. To care for him in a way that was truly personal.
That gap is why we built Omi Health—to give you real insight into YOUR pet’s health and to help you catch things before it’s too late.
