“Pet parents are diving into tech that gives real-time health and happiness updates,” says HostingAdvice site manager Christina Lewis. “It’s a game-changer for pet care.” She adds that it’s important to choose secure devices.
The survey also found that 81% of respondents would rely on pet care tech tools to reduce veterinary visits. However, animal parents must balance technology with regular veterinary care to give their dogs and cats the best of both worlds.
