Pet Software with Live Camera Feeds

Native iDogCam integration. Built into dashboard, portal, website, and app.

Pet parents want to see their dogs. Most facilities duct-tape a camera system onto their website with a third-party embed that has nothing to do with their booking software. Animal Friends OS is the only platform with native camera integration. Branded viewer, screenshot watermarking with your logo, client self-service, and auto-notification on check-in. Works in your staff dashboard, client portal, website, and mobile app. Designed by a pet care facility owner with over a decade of experience.

Camera integration that works everywhere

Staff Dashboard Viewer

Monitor all cameras from your Animal Friends OS dashboard. See every room, play area, and kennel without switching apps or opening a separate camera system.

Client Portal Camera Access

Logged-in clients view live feeds of their pet through the client portal. Access automatically granted when their pet is checked in, revoked at checkout.

Website Camera Viewer

Embed the branded camera viewer on your website. Show prospective clients your facility in real time, or gate access to clients with active reservations.

Mobile App Integration

Camera feeds in your white-label mobile app. Clients watch from their phone with push notification alerts when their pet is checked in and the feed is live.

Screenshot Watermarking

Clients capture screenshots — each one automatically watermarked with your business logo. Social media shares become free marketing for your facility.

Auto-Notify on Check-In

When a pet is checked in, the system sends a notification to the pet parent with a direct link to the live feed. They start watching within seconds of drop-off.

How it works

1

Mount cameras in kennels and play areas

Install iDogCam units in the spots clients want to see — kennel runs, daycare play floors, group rooms, intake. Hardware is designed for the dust and noise of pet care environments.

2

Connect via integration

Cameras pair to your Animal Friends OS account through our native iDogCam integration. No third-party app, no separate login for your staff.

3

Owners log into the client portal

Pet parents see your branded portal with a Cameras tab. Access is gated automatically — only clients with a pet currently checked in can view the feed.

4

Live feeds available 24/7 during the stay

From check-in to checkout, the feed stays live in the portal and the mobile app. Screenshots are watermarked with your logo so social shares pull double duty as marketing.

Real operator scenarios

Boarding facility upselling a premium "camera access" tier

Scenario. A boarding facility had cameras but no easy way to package them as a paid upgrade — clients either got access or did not, with no clean upsell flow.

Outcome. Camera access now lives behind a paid boarding tier, sold at booking — turning hardware they already owned into a recurring revenue line.

Daycare facility offering live feed as a standard differentiator

Scenario. A daycare operator was competing against bigger chains in town and needed a reason for new clients to pick them over the closest option.

Outcome. Free live camera access for every daycare client became the headline feature on their site and a regular reason new clients give for switching.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which pet software has live camera integration?

Animal Friends OS is the only pet care platform with native iDogCam camera integration. The camera viewer is built into the dashboard, client portal, website, and mobile app. No third-party embeds, no separate subscriptions, no clunky workarounds.

How does the branded camera viewer work?

The camera viewer displays your business logo and brand colors. When clients view cameras, they see YOUR facility branding — not iDogCam’s or a generic player. The viewer works in your dashboard (staff view), client portal (logged-in clients), website (public or gated), and mobile app.

Can clients take screenshots from the camera?

Yes. Clients can capture screenshots directly from the camera viewer. Every screenshot is automatically watermarked with your business logo. When they share on social media, your brand goes with the image — free marketing every time.

Does the system notify clients when their pet arrives?

Yes. When a pet is checked in, the system can automatically send a notification to the client with a direct link to the live camera feed. Pet parents can start watching within seconds of drop-off.

Can I restrict camera access to clients with active reservations?

Yes. Camera access can be gated so only clients with an active boarding reservation or daycare check-in can view the feed. The system automatically grants and revokes access based on booking status.

Does the camera work on the mobile app?

Yes. The camera viewer is built into the white-label mobile app. Clients can watch live feeds, take watermarked screenshots, and receive push notifications about their pet — all from your branded app on their phone.
