Keep your furry friends safe! Here are the Best Pet-Friendly Home Security Systems

Our top two choices for the best safety systems for pets are Vivint and ADT since they each have a complete line of safety equipment and skilled monitoring. Overall, there were a few more characteristics to Vivint that made us sit and stay. We are particular fans of the one-of-a-kind Ping camera that, whenever it senses movement, doubles as a motion sensor and takes 20-second activity clips. It even has two-way speak, so in the act of digging through the garbage, you can console nervous animals or capture them.

 

The Best Pet-Friendly Security Systems

Best Overall: Vivint

If you want a professionally controlled and built security device that works with your family and pets, Vivint is the top choice. Vivint's mobile app connects the sensors mounted in your house, enabling you to track your home and your pets in real-time. You can set emergency and non-emergency warnings, for instance,  when your pet is up to its usual mischief or whether it is in real danger. .Monitoring from Vivint's experts also lets you easily contact emergency when needed.

We particularly like Vivint's strong capabilities for video monitoring. When you are away, the Ping camera has all the features you need to keep an eye on your pets. In the midst of their antics, the two-way touch will console nervous pups or capture cats. It has crystal-clear night vision in the infrared and a wide-angle HD view to watch them at all times from any part of your home. We also like the playback function of 20 seconds that kicks on when Ping detects activity. And for human members of your family who might need to reach you too, there is also a one-touch call button. 

It should be remembered that Vivint costs a small fortune up front and needs a contract of 60 months, but for many consumers who want to protect their human and animal families, it is a worthwhile service.

 

Best for Dog: ADT

 

Our dogs welcome us home with wagging tails and happy ears, from the tiniest teacup chow chows to the biggest german shepherds. You can keep an eye on them all day with a pet-friendly home protection device, and when they need you most, come to the rescue. Even the sharpest border collie can't call 911, so finding a device that alerts you to real threats such as fires and leaks of carbon monoxide is crucial. 

As an ADT authorized provider, we have an impressive range of home automation equipment, home protection, and security. But its customizable motion detector is what stands out to us. Up to a certain weight limit, usually, 30 to 45 pounds, most pet-immune PIR (passive infrared) sensors ignore animals. The SafeStreets motion sensor is adjustable, allowing you to customize this range to match the size of your animals.

For 145 years, ADT has been in the home safety business, so you know you can count on them to secure your home. That said, we can't ignore the inconsistent pricing from different sources on their website and complaints of poor customer service.
