Having a cute pet to call home is one of life’s great joys, but modern gadgets and AI technology make pet ownership even more fun and convenient.
We’ve rounded up some gadgets that make perfect gifts for pet parents.
Petlibro AI-powered pet camera – $99.99
Petlibro recently launched the AI-powered Scout Smart Camera. This allows pet owners to see what their little ones are doing in real time.
The app allows you to control the camera’s line of sight and even automatically track your pet as it moves around. The camera has two-way audio, so you can talk to your pet when they’re naughty, or even make a small sound to get their attention. Scout can recognize up to two pets, so you can track them individually.
What makes this device special is the AI explanation. Scout can recognize when your pet eats, drinks, uses the bathroom, or just walks. Take photos and save daily highlights in the cloud for up to 30 days. To access AI features, you must sign up for a standard subscription for $12 per month or a premium tier for $17 per month.
Life360 GPS Pet Tracker – $49.99
This new GPS pet tracker from Life360 is a lifesaver for anyone worried about their furry friend wandering around. It can be attached to your pet’s collar and connected to your mobile phone for real-time location tracking. It also has geofencing, which will alert you if your pet leaves a safe area like your yard or neighborhood.
Other useful features include an alert that notifies nearby pet owners in the area if your pet escapes, and a built-in light to help you find your pet in the dark.

Petlibro Wet Food Feeder – $149.99
Petlibro’s Polar Wet Food Feeder is meant to keep your cat’s wet food fresh while you’re on the go. It has three compartments and can hold up to 22.2 ounces, so you can go out for up to 72 hours without worrying about your cat going hungry. The container is chilled to keep food fresh, and the bowl tray is made of BPA-free and dishwasher-safe plastic.
The device comes with a mobile app that allows you to control the feeder, set a feeding schedule for your pet, and receive notifications when your cat starts eating. The app will alert you if your home’s internet connection is lost, and in the event of a power outage, the device can keep food cold for up to 12 hours.
Pawport Smart Pet Door – $699
If you’re tired of pests and critters getting in through regular pet doors, this smart door system from Pawport is made of solid steel and aluminum and features two heavy-duty deadbolts to keep out unwanted animals and rain and snow. The new model released this year has enhanced security by connecting the inside and outside doors through a tunnel-shaped housing.
Thanks to tracker tags and motion sensing technology, the door automatically opens when your pet approaches. There are also apps to remotely control your door, schedule door opening and closing, and issue voice commands through Alexa, Siri, and Google.
PetKit Automatic Toilet – $499.99
PetKit’s PuraMax 2 model is one of the most popular automatic toilets on the market today. It features odor control, a sealed bin that traps odors, and a citrus-scented odor eliminator that activates after each clean and at random times throughout the day.
The device’s paired mobile app also helps you track your cat’s health, as it records how often your cat uses the box, for how long, when cleaning cycles begin and end, and when the deodorant spray is released. It also tracks your cat’s weight changes, which can help you spot potential health problems early.
