Among all the pet-related products I have brought home for my pup Soju (and there have been many), the stand-out ones have always been a home security camera.
Because watching your pet while they’re in another room is a game-changer, especially during those early training days.
Now that Soju is a little older and we’re leaving him alone more than usual, we’re pet-proofing the house once again.

One area that’s currently not in view has had the addition of a subscription-free EZVIZ S10 Indoor Smart Video Calling Camera, which allows me to view, record and speak through the sleek-looking touchscreen.
The S10 is a new addition to the already impressive line-up of cameras, and this latest model has one particularly stand-out feature: Always-On Video.
This means the battery-powered camera provides continuous coverage by using low-power time-lapse recording when nothing is happening.
But when there’s movement inside the home, it switches to normal video recording mode whenever activity is detected.
Straight out of the box, I was impressed with the sleek 4-inch touchscreen, which allows you to set up the camera with ease.
Once connected to my phone, I could rotate the camera and even zoom in to see where Soju was. And thanks to the 2K resolution, the picture is crystal clear.
AI-powered detection is currently switched on, delivering notifications straight to my phone whenever motion is detected — a feature I turn off while I’m at home.

While many at-home security cameras deliver a similar monitoring service, EZVIZ’s S10 camera is actually multi-use.
It can be used both as a digital photo frame and as a Bluetooth speaker. So you can bet I’ve had a slideshow of pictures from our recent off-grid cabin weekend on repeat every single day.
Currently $298 at Harvey Norman (usually $379.95), it’s a tech-savvy camera that feels worthy of its price tag.
While anything nearing $300 is fairly steep for a pet camera, given that this model comes with plenty of additional home security features, it’s easy to justify.
And the fact that it can double as a Bluetooth speaker and digital photo album makes it a real winner for anyone who loves a multi-use piece of tech.
