Choosing Your Pet's New Best Friend: The Pet Camera

pet camera, tapo c125

Pet owners know the struggle is real: we want to be with our furry companions all the time, but life and work don't always allow it. Whether you are out for work, on a business trip, or on vacation, wouldn't it be great to check in on your pets and see what they're up to? A pet camera can be an excellent solution to ease both your pet's separation anxiety and your own longing. Plus, it's an effective way to monitor if your pet is causing any mischief at home.

 

Pet Cameras vs. Security Cameras

While pet cameras often come with features like treat dispensers or laser pointers designed specifically for interacting with your pets, they can be several hundred dollars more expensive than regular security cameras. They may also require more maintenance, like cleaning the feeder.

However, a high-quality security camera can often satisfy our pet monitoring needs and serve as an effective pet camera. Notably, some of the more recent security cameras have incorporated many pet-friendly features to perform this duty better.

 

How to Choose the Right Pet Camera

When choosing a pet camera, consider the following features:

Rotating 360° View & Auto Pet Tracking: Pets are often energetic and move around a lot. A camera that offers 360° surveillance can be very useful to keep an eye on their activities. Cameras with motion tracking can rotate to keep your pet in view at all times.

Two-Way Audio: Interact with your pet from afar to soothe or gently correct them, like if they’re tempted by unattended treats.

Abnormal Sound Detection: Some cameras are equipped with AI detection to alert you to any unusual noises, such as the sound of glass breaking or a dog barking, ensuring your pet's safety.

Wired or Wire-free: Wired cameras offer 24/7 monitoring, capturing every moment of your pet's day. Battery-powered cameras can be installed anywhere, even in places without a power outlet, like a doghouse in the backyard.

Image Quality: Higher image quality allows for clearer details of your pets. High resolution and color reproduction capabilities enable you to appreciate the fascinating moments of your pet's activities.

Night Vision: Many pets are nocturnal and are most active when you're asleep. A camera with high-quality night vision can help you see what they're up to, even in the dark.
