If you want to feel the warmth of selfless love, get a pet.
While it’s not hard to get a pet, caring for one can become a full-time job.
However, when it comes to taking care of our pets, there are some very useful gadgets and apps that can help pet owners. But while gadgets can be expensive and time-consuming, apps are relatively easier to get and use; all you need is a good internet. We suggest checking out Spectrum internet plans which offer a strong and seamless connection over a variety of affordable rates so you never lose touch with your furry friend when you are away.
However, where do you start with so many options?
Well, we are here to help you figure that out and what works best for you and your best friend. Here are some apps that can help you out:
Top 6 Apps For Pet Care
1. Puppr
Dog training can be tricky, especially if your dog is small. This is why it is extremely important to have a training method that is easy to follow and that will leave a lasting impression on your dog. Puppr is an application that streams training lessons and advice from professionals, with an easy-to-navigate interface designed to make the training process as easy as possible.
Puppr has a clean layout that is easy to navigate, especially if you’re looking for specific tricks. Each lesson page has a difficulty meter (between one and four bones) and the ability to indicate where your dog is in each lesson: idle, in progress, and mastered.
2. VitusVet
Access your pet’s medical records on your phone, wherever you are!
VitusVet is the first veterinary practice management software of its kind, providing easy communication and payment solutions with real-time performance metrics.
Do you need proof of vaccination from your landlord, dog park, or dog-friendly restaurant? With this app, your information is just a few clicks away. You can also monitor your pet’s weight, track their medications, check pet microchips and insurance information, and keep track of any allergies or medical alerts for quick reference.
3. Wag!
Wag!, also known as Uber for Dogs, is a great mobile app that will help you find a babysitter for your dog if you need one. This app also gives extensive background information on the service providers and insures their services for you.
It’s perfect for busy owners who would like to have a dog in their life but can’t always give it the attention they deserve. You can leave your best friend and they won’t have to give up daily exercise. Some service providers even train your dog along with it.
They take care of their nannies and also insure their services. After every walk or other interaction your dog has with one of the Wag! nannies, you will receive a certificate detailing all relevant details of the service such as hours walked, etc.
4. Pet Monitor VIGI
Pet Monitor VIGI is a very popular iOS app, also available for Android, to keep track of your wonderful and beloved furry pets. The app can send you notifications not only about sounds but also about motion detection. Pet Monitor VIGI is also equipped with a camera function that allows you to take beautiful photos and videos of your pet and share them on social networks.
In addition, Pet Monitor VIGI allows you to connect to mobile devices for effective monitoring of your pets.
5. Rover
Rover is an app (and website) that connects dog owners with potential dog handlers and nannies. It is so simple! If you have a dog, this is a great and safe way to find someone to help take care of your pet.
But if, like me, you’re looking for a great new way to make money, you can offer your services as a babysitter and/or dog walker and earn some money babysitting and playing sports.
Rover isn’t just for dog walking, although that’s probably the most popular service they offer. All of this is for “visiting”, meaning you go to someone’s home and visit them with their pets.
6. Petcube
Small and easy to install, the Petcube Cam provides an easy and fast way to keep track of your pets. It connects quickly so you can easily see what’s going on in your home while you’re away. There is two-way audio so you can hear your pet and your pet can hear you. The sound is clear and does not distort the voice.
Just download the app and create a free account, then connect it to your home Wi-Fi and follow the installation instructions.
Petcube also allows you to share the stream with friends or family members so they can also help keep an eye on your furry critter.
Wrapping it up
Having a pet doesn’t have to be a hassle particularly when you’re juggling jobs or have a tight schedule. Technology has made our lives easier by a huge margin, so why not use these apps to make the best of what it has to offer?
