Which pet camera?

Hi all, which camera are you using to monitor your pets when you are out? I’ve looked around on Amazon and utterly confused bu the array of cameras on offer, especially as there seems to be lots of positive reviews for pretty much every single one which seem a little bit too good to be true in the light of 1* reviews for the same product.
What I would like is a motion/sound activated camera with a recording function, wireless and easy to set up. That’s about it, thank you!

I've got a Nooie camera, which I'm happy with.

I have the Tapo one someone else on here recommended. Needs to be plugged into mains and connected to Wi-fi. You can add a memory card to record. Picture quality in day is great. Night vision is not too bad. And audio is good enough that I wake up when I hear pup move in the night. It has a motion sensor too and notifies you. Available on Amazon or Argos.

Amazon Blink here - really easy to set up, easy to use app, Wi-Fi etc. wouldn't be without it now!

I've got two tapos and they're excellent

Thank you for your recommendations. Will check them all out.

We've also got a Nooie which we like. Not to oexpensove, looks fairly decent and does the job. App is fairly easy to set up, it records onto an sd card (included in the box) and you can also choose to record straight onto your phone which is great for us as we are working with a behaviourist on separation issues.

The downsides is that only one device can be logged in at the same time, and the motion and sound sensor seem too sensitive to me.

Hi All, thank you for the information, it really helped me to narrow down the list. Ended up buying Reolink package which has 2 cameras, allows 2 users to connect, has audio and recording function. What swayed me was some reviews saying they had initial problems which got resolved by client services, I found it quite reassuring. Also, the price - under £100 from the big online retailer 😀.
