One list, sorted by our overall score out of 10. Scores weigh daily reliability, the app, running costs and how the animals took to the device; the review explains each one.
The Mini 360 swaps the big Furbo's 100-treat tank for a 2K camera in a 0.3 lb body. We check what you give up, what the $35 bundle really costs and where sources disagree.
At $79.99 the Bites 2 Lite is one of the cheapest ways to toss a treat to a pet from your phone. It has a 160 degree lens, but no built-in Alexa, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only and a paid history plan.
Furbo's $54 price needs a Nanny plan, while the camera alone is $184. We check what still works free, what the subscription adds and when the cheap deal turns expensive.
Petcube's Cam 360 pans 350 degrees, sees 30 feet in the dark and talks both ways for $34.99. Live viewing is free, but replay, pet alerts and vet chat sit behind the Petcube Care plans.
Enabot's $159.99 egg-shaped robot drives around the house with a 2K camera, a laser and two-way audio. It reaches rooms a fixed cam cannot, but it is no autonomous patrol bot and rugs stop it.
Petlibro's Scout is a $79.99 1080p pan-and-tilt camera that names up to five pets. Live view is free, but history and AI summaries need a plan from $95.99 a year, and independent testing found the recognition shaky.
