I saw a thread here but I cant find it. What works for monitoring your pets when you are away from the Camper?

I thought of using a blink camera, but no blink says the open type camp site wifi cannot connect to it. I then thought of using a cell wifi access point but i dont know how that might work with a monitoring system.

What do you guys use?

  Some people use a Canary because it has a temperature sensor. Nimble is a new one I have seen on the market but have not seen any reviews for it, yet.

  The short answer would be NO. 

  I’ve looked at this from every angle for my dogs.  
  

  You are relying on tech and WiFi signal plus if you get held up, your pet is cooked. 

  For an hour while walking the campsite alone in a shady spot it’s fine.  

  For a hike, imagine if you got hurt and couldn’t get back.

  I have concluded that if doubt, it would be safer to leave in the T@b with the windows open and fan running and a big bowl of water.
