Dog baby monitor

Nowadays, you can connect with your dog or cat, even if you’re not home. It only takes two mobile devices with an internet connection, microphone and a camera or a classic camera. Usually a mobile phone for you and a tablet or a notebook for the pets at home. Then you just download the app called Dog baby monitor. It will notify you, when the dog starts being noisy, it can take photographs on the fly or record the whole situation. You can also use the option of voice transfer and shout at the dog if it misbehaves. You’ll find the app from Czech developers under the name Dog Monitor and it’s available in more languages.

In the life of a dog owner, there are sometimes situations, that require also an unscheduled visit to the veterinarian. The app GoVet or VetFinder brings a map of veterinary clinics and other function. Both apps allow you to browse the doctors’ offices not only according to the address, but also depending on the services offered and the opening hours.
