There’s always a little anxiety associated with leaving a pet at home on its own. You want to be sure that your dog or cat is happy and healthy…and that it’s not tearing the couch to shreds. A pet camera not only allows you to watch your fuzzy friends on your phone, but many make it possible to interact with them. You can talk to your pets and hear them bark, purr, or meow back. Some pet cams even let you play with your animal or toss them a treat. So worry not! Keep tabs on your animal companion when away or at work with one of these wonderful pet cameras.
