Smart Devices for Your Dog
Try these handy tech tools for premium pet care
It's becoming more and more common to use smart devices to enhance virtually every experience we have on a daily basis. Whether it's scheduling our appointments, shopping for the latest deals, planning a trip, or staying connected with loved ones, we use smart devices to help us get it done.
Smart devices protect our homes, add comfort to our surroundings, and allow us to have control of any number of household functions at our fingertips.
There's also plenty of room in the smart device space for pet owners! If you're a fan of technology in any other facet of your life, then we encourage you to incorporate an app or device into your pet care routine.
There are many options these days that truly offer ways for you to enhance your experience as an owner and elevate the care and attention you give to your dog.
What is a Smart Device?
A smart device is an electronic device that can connect to the internet or another device (most commonly our phone, which 85% of Americans own (1)) and can be controlled remotely or automatically. These devices use sensors, processors, and software to gather data, analyze it, and respond to it in real-time.
Smart devices are designed to make our lives easier and more convenient by automating everyday tasks and providing valuable insights into our behavior and habits.
Some of the more omnipresent smart devices in our lives include:
Phones
Speakers
Lightbulbs
Security systems
Thermostats
Keyless door locks
Watches
Add Some Apps and Tech Tools to Your Pet Care
If you've never considered how technology can help you as a pet owner, we have some recommendations for you! Each of these offers an excellent addition to your current pet care regimen.
A Guardian Angel
The tech tool that we're most excited about is Pangel™. This innovative app allows you to arrange for care in the event that you are unable to return home to your pet. Once you've set up your profile and selected guardians, the app will alert them if you're forced to be away from your pet for longer than planned. If an accident, emergency, or unplanned event occurs, you don't have to worry about getting care for your pet.
A Collar That's Connected
One of the most popular smart devices for dogs is the smart collar. These collars come equipped with GPS trackers that allow you to locate your dog in real time. Additionally, some smart collars can monitor your dog's activity levels, track their health data, and even provide recommendations for diet and exercise based on the data collected.
Never Forget Feedings
Another popular smart device for dogs is the automatic feeder. These devices allow you to program feeding schedules and portion sizes, ensuring that your dog receives the right amount of food at the right time. Some automatic feeders also come with a camera, which allows you to keep an eye on your dog's eating habits and food intake.
Keep Watchful Eye With A Camera
Dog cameras are also gaining in popularity, allowing pet parents to monitor their dogs remotely. These cameras can be accessed through a smartphone app, and some even come with features like two-way audio and treat dispensers, enabling you to interact with your dog even when you're not at home.
Take Toys Up a Notch
Smart toys are another option to keep your dog engaged and entertained. These toys come with features like automatic sensors, which can detect your dog's movements and respond accordingly. Some smart toys even allow you to play games with your dog remotely through a smartphone app.
Digitize Your Doggy Door
Smart doors are a great way to keep your dog safe while also giving them the freedom to move around. These doors can be programmed to only allow your dog to enter and exit the house, and some even come with automatic locking and unlocking features that can be controlled through a smartphone app.
With these tools in your routine, your job as a pet owner is more manageable, but most importantly, your pet gets the benefits of enhanced care.
