The Best Pet Cameras in Australia

Leaving your pet home alone is easier when you can check what they’re doing instead of worrying through the workday. Our best pet camera pick is the Petcube Bites 2 Lite: it combines remote treats, two-way audio and a wide view, with several independent recommendations behind it.

It’s also the dearest pick here. If you want a lower upfront cost, the Furbo Mini 360° is worth considering, provided you’re comfortable paying for a subscription to activate it.

1. Best pet camera with treat dispenser: Petcube Bites 2 Lite

If checking the video feels a bit one-sided, the Petcube Bites 2 Lite lets you do something for your pet as well. You can speak to them and fling a treat from your phone, which is why we’d choose it for someone who wants more than a quick look at the room.

Petcube’s stated 160° view gives you a wider angle than the basic Petcube camera below. That’s useful when the pet bed and the spot your dog actually sleeps are at different ends of the room.

CHOICE recommends it for easy setup and remote treat dispensing, with clear video and two-way audio, while noting that advanced alerts require a subscription. We found no independent owner rating at the retailers we check. It was ranked number 60 in Pet Cameras on Amazon Australia when we checked.

Our take is that the everyday interaction makes this worth considering, but the price needs to suit how often you’ll use it. It’s the most expensive of these seven cameras. If you’ll rarely send a treat, we’d spend less on a camera focused on viewing.

Amazon Australia was the sole retailer stocking this model in our supplied checks; check the warranty and returns terms before ordering.

Our verdict: Buy the Bites 2 Lite if remote treats are central to why you want a camera. For occasional visual check-ins, its higher price is harder to justify.

2. Best for a low upfront cost: Furbo Mini 360°

A small purchase price is appealing until another ongoing bill appears. The Furbo Mini 360° has the lowest upfront price in this guide, but you’ll need a paid Furbo Nanny subscription to activate it.

WIRED recommends it as the best pet camera for most people, combining a compact design, rotating coverage and treat dispensing. It was ranked number 2 in Pet Cameras on Amazon Australia when we checked. We found no independent owner rating at the retailers we check.

The rotating view should help when your pet moves away from their usual spot. The catch for treat dispensing is capacity: Furbo says it holds up to 10 small treats, so decide whether that suits the amount of remote interaction you want.

Furbo says live view, auto tracking, two-way audio, treat tossing and barking alerts remain active if you cancel the subscription. Our take is that this makes the Mini a reasonable value choice for someone willing to accept the initial commitment. Compare the plan terms before treating that low purchase price as the full cost.

Our stock checks found this Mini at Amazon Australia alone, so review its warranty and returns conditions there.

Our verdict: Choose the Mini if you want rotating coverage and treats for a low upfront spend. Skip it if a compulsory subscription at setup is a deal-breaker.

3. Best dog camera for barking alerts: Furbo 360° Dog Camera

If barking is what prompts you to check your phone, the Furbo 360° Dog Camera is the dog-focused choice we’d consider. Furbo lists barking alerts alongside rotating coverage and treat tossing, so you can check in and respond remotely.

Better Homes & Gardens Australia recommends it for monitoring dogs and tossing treats remotely, with room-wide rotation, two-way audio and barking alerts. There’s no independent owner rating available from the retailers we check.

The subscription requirement is the deciding factor. Unlike the Mini’s stated cancellation arrangement, the supplied information for this model says a plan is required for it to function. Don’t assume the two Furbo models have identical terms.

Its upfront price is lower than the Petcube Bites 2 Lite, but we’d choose it because you want the dog alerts, rather than because it looks cheaper. Amazon Australia is the only stockist shown in our retailer data for this model; confirm the warranty and returns terms before buying.

Our verdict: This is our dog camera treat dispenser choice when barking alerts are a priority. Buy it only if the ongoing plan fits your budget.

4. Best for checking pets after dark: Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Camera 2K

Getting home after dark leaves you wanting a useful view of the room, not another treat feature to manage. The Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Camera 2K earns its place for that job, with an independent recommendation for night vision.

Better Homes & Gardens Australia recommends it for night vision, with colour footage and remotely adjustable coverage for checking pets after dark. We found no independent owner rating for it at the retailers we check.

Our take is that adjustable coverage is more useful here than paying for pet entertainment you’ll rarely use. The physical privacy shutter is also a practical benefit when you’re home and want both the camera and microphone disabled.

Ring says video quality varies with internet bandwidth and lighting conditions. And if saved cloud footage matters, factor in the separately sold Ring Protect plan.

The available retailer data lists Amazon Australia as its sole stockist, making the warranty and returns terms worth checking on the listing.

Our verdict: Choose the Ring for checking pets after dark and controlling the view from your phone. Decide whether you need saved recordings before committing to a plan.

5. Best for remote movement: Enabot ROLA Mini

A camera aimed at the pet bed isn’t much help when your pet settles somewhere else. The Enabot ROLA Mini lets you move the camera through the house using its app, rather than relying on one fixed position.

WIRED recommends it as the best pet camera on wheels for clear 2K video, remote interaction and long battery life. No independent owner rating was available at the retailers we check.

Enabot claims up to 25 days of normal use. We’d treat that as a maximum, rather than plan your charging around it. The stated 10 mm obstacle limit also deserves attention if you have raised door thresholds between rooms.

It costs more than the Ring, so the movement needs to solve a real problem for you. For a pet that spends the day in one room, we’d buy the less expensive room camera.

Amazon Australia was the only retailer shown with stock for the ROLA Mini; check warranty coverage and returns before you order.

Our verdict: Buy the ROLA Mini when moving the camera is the feature you’ll use. Check the route through your home first, particularly the door thresholds.

6. Best mobile camera for cats: Enabot EBO SE

Cats don’t always spend the day where you’ve pointed a camera. The Enabot EBO SE is worth considering if you’d rather have a mobile companion than another device watching one corner.

Better Homes & Gardens Australia recommends it for cats, offering mobile monitoring, two-way audio and automatic return to its charging dock. We found no independent owner rating at the retailers we check.

Our take is that returning to a dock makes this an appealing choice for someone who wants a mobile camera without making charging the main attraction. But it’s still a much bigger purchase than the basic Petcube below. Buy it for the mobility; ordinary check-ins don’t justify the extra spend.

Only Amazon Australia appears as a stockist in the supplied EBO SE data. Check its warranty and returns arrangements before choosing it.

Our verdict: Choose the EBO SE for mobile cat monitoring and the convenience of a charging dock. If a view of one room is enough, spend less.

7. Best for basic check-ins: Petcube Pet Camera

Sometimes you just want to see whether your pet is asleep and say hello. The Petcube Pet Camera suits that simpler brief, with two-way audio and a lower price than the Ring or either mobile robot.

The rating keeps our recommendation restrained. A 3.5 out of 5 from 10 reviews at JB Hi-Fi is a modest score from a small group, not a strong endorsement.

Our take is that this makes sense when you want basic viewing and conversation without paying for movement or remote treats. Its 110° view is narrower than the Bites 2 Lite’s 160°, so placement will matter if you’re trying to cover a broad room.

Our verdict: Consider the basic Petcube for occasional check-ins on a smaller budget. Its owner score is the reason we’d keep expectations modest and put it last.

How we chose

These reviews are based on owner ratings and review counts, the supplied independent recommendations, maker specifications, and price and stock checks. All seven picks were in stock at Amazon Australia when checked.

We put independently recommended products ahead of the basic Petcube’s modest owner score, then weighed the recommended models by their features, cost and who they suit. Amazon sales ranks are included where available; they aren’t owner ratings. No pick here relies on sales rank alone.

Pet camera buying guide

If you just want to know they’re settled

Start with viewing and two-way audio. Paying for treat dispensing or a mobile robot makes sense when you’ll use those features, but a quick look at the pet bed is a simpler job.

The basic Petcube is our lower-cost choice for that brief, with the caution that its owner rating is modest.

If you want a dog treat dispenser with camera

Choose the Petcube Bites 2 Lite when remote treats are the main reason you’re buying. The Furbo Mini offers a lower upfront price, while the Furbo 360° Dog Camera is our choice when barking alerts matter.

Before buying, check the supported treat sizes, refill requirements and subscription terms. A treat dispenser shouldn’t be your plan for serving meals; none of these picks is presented as a scheduled meal feeder.

If your pet keeps leaving the frame

Decide whether you need the camera to turn or physically move. Rotating coverage suits checking different parts of one room. A mobile camera makes sense when changing the camera’s position is part of the job.

For the ROLA Mini, compare its stated obstacle limit with the route you want it to travel. Mobility is worth paying for only when it works with your home’s layout.

If you’re usually out after dark

Look for explicit night-vision support. The Ring is our recommendation for this need, while the Bites 2 Lite and both Furbo models also list night vision.

Don’t choose on resolution alone. Ring’s own specifications note that lighting and internet bandwidth affect video quality.

If you’re trying to avoid another subscription

Read the activation terms before comparing purchase prices. The Furbo Mini requires a paid plan at setup, although Furbo says core functions remain after cancellation. The Furbo 360° Dog Camera’s supplied terms require a plan for the device to function.

For the Bites 2 Lite, advanced alerts require a subscription. Ring’s cloud recording plan is sold separately. Decide whether you need alerts and saved footage, or whether live check-ins cover your needs.

If privacy matters when you’re home

Look for a clear way to stop recording or listening, and check the app’s account settings before leaving the camera running. The Ring’s physical shutter disables both its camera and microphone.

Pet camera FAQs

Can a pet camera stop separation anxiety?

Treats and remote conversation can give you ways to interact, but none of the supplied data establishes that these cameras treat separation anxiety. Choose a camera to observe and check in; don’t buy one on the assumption it will solve distress.

Does every pet camera dispense treats?

No. For remote treat dispensing, choose from the Petcube Bites 2 Lite, Furbo Mini 360° and Furbo 360° Dog Camera in this guide.

Is a best-seller rank the same as a good owner rating?

No. A sales rank tells you where a product sits in its Amazon category when checked. An owner rating is a separate score, and the number of reviews matters too.

The Furbo Mini and Bites 2 Lite have supplied Amazon ranks and independent recommendations, but no independent owner ratings from the retailers we check.
