Offering a ray of sunshine while away from home, PetziConnect is a device that seamlessly connects to the home's Wi-Fi and allows owners to ("see") video, ("treat") dispense treats, ("speak") audio and ("snap") take pictures & videos of their pets remotely using any internet enabled smart device.

First to receive their PetziConnect, will be the supporters of the company's highly successful Indiegogo campaign which helped to fund and refine the product's design. The support and input from the Indiegogo community has been integral to creating the final product.
