Why pet owners need a home security system

Why Pet Owners Need a Home Security System

February 20, 2024 by

Your family pet is as valuable and meaningful as any other family member. So, you want a system that accommodates them while keeping them safe and secure. Just like a child, pets like to roam around, explore, and enjoy a well-acclimatized home, and today’s security systems help with this.

Keep Your Eyes On Them

Security Cameras have played a vital role in the home security system since its inception. With advancements in technology, these cameras can now see and do more in and around the home, making it easier to monitor what your home-alone puppy or kitten is up to.

Infrared, motion-activated colour recording can give you as much or as little information as desired. Some cameras can even let you speak to your pet from the office or car.

Ease of Use

The security control panel and smartphone app are your best friend regarding home security, as this is the key to programming your system to work the way you want. You can control different aspects of the home by integrating your smart home with the security panel.

From programming lights to come on or turn off to adjusting the thermostat at different times and even setting alarms on doors and other areas, so your pet can roam around without having the police show up on your doorstep daily.

Individual alarm codes can also be programmed so that you can see who comes and goes and at what times. It is beneficial for a dog walker or pet sitter to access the home while you are away.

Cold On the Outside, Warm On the Inside

Canadian winters are difficult. One moment, the weather is -10°C and sunny and then, it is -40°C and bleak. It can create issues with plumbing and heating in the home, from frozen and burst pipes to your furnace quitting altogether and leaving you without heating.

Smart Thermostats give you control, even when you are not home, to help prevent these issues from arising. They can be programmed to automatically increase the temperature at certain times or manually from your smartphone.

It means your loveable puppy or kitten can rest well knowing they will be warm. While they can always curl up under blankets or in your bed, not every pet is so lucky. If you have exotic pets, such as reptiles, which cannot regulate their temperature and rely on your help, you can care for them without worry.

It’s Not the Dark Ages

Smart lighting allows you to program the lights in areas to come on or go off at specified times. It means you can give the illusion of someone being at home as a criminal deterrent, but your pets will remain calm in consistent light, rather than being startled when you come home and turn everything on.

You can set the lights to come on where the pet is most of the time, or can have multiple areas come on at once. Being able to deter potential thieves and keeping your furry family members happy is a great feeling.

Say Hi to Everyone in the House

Smart homes have features that allow you to talk to your pet and anyone else in the house through the cameras.

While this can help get the cat off the kitchen counter or startle the dog who is brave enough to get on the sofa, this can also act as a way of calming worried pets as they can hear your voice. It also allows you to talk to other people in the house, wanted or unwanted.

Should someone break in, you can advise them that the police are on the way and a guard animal is on the property.

Smart Homes, Smart Security

Smart technology is all around us today, from ovens that hook up to Wi-Fi to allow you to cook when you’re not at home to fitness trackers that count your steps and monitor your sleep.

Your smartphone controls the system. Smart Security in your home is another facet that we can control from the palm of our hands. You now have significant control over how the house is protected and run when you are not there.

With such control, you and your pets can carry on your day knowing that all the creature comforts are taken care of and the home is safe. If there is an emergency, your smartphone connected to your smart security lets you and the security monitoring centre know so that help can be dispatched when needed.
