What we did

compared five cameras on the Furbo and Petcube UK shops on 21 October 2026, recorded each device price and subscription price, and added them up over 24 months. For Furbo's second year we used the listed full price of £7.99 a month, because the shop does not show a renewal price.

What we did not do

use these cameras or measure video quality, treat-tossing range or app reliability. We do not quote the makers' star ratings.

How much are dog cameras over two years?

A dog camera's real cost is the device plus the subscription that unlocks recordings and alerts. Over two years, using the cheapest such plan on each maker's UK shop on 21 October 2026:

If you only want to watch live, the three Petcube cameras need no subscription at all: £49.99, £55.99 or £149.95 in total.

Do you need a subscription for a dog camera?

For live viewing, not with Petcube: its free Basic plancovers live streaming, while video history, smart alerts and downloads need Optimal (£4.99 a month billed yearly, or £9.99 monthly) or Premium (£11.99 a month billed yearly, or £16.99 monthly). Furbo says Furbo Nanny is “an optional subscription service that you may choose to purchase after your FREE 14-day trial”, but its shop shows the camera at £39 (360°) or £17 (Mini) when bought with a plan, against listed full prices of £159 and £79. Furbo says yearly and 2-year plans include a lifetime hardware warranty while the subscription is active.

Do dog cameras help with separation anxiety?

A dog camera helps you see the problem; it does not fix it. Dogs Trust suggests finding out what your dog does when alone: “set up your phone to video, peek through the window out of sight, or use a remote camera linked to a device”, then check the footage for signs of anxiety. In its training steps, it says a camera can help you check your dog stays relaxed while you are out of sight, and that working with a behaviour expert improves the chance of success. Dogs Trust also says dogs shouldn't be left alone for more than four hours; for longer days, see our dog walker cost guide.

Treat tossing (Furbo 360° and Petcube Bites 2 Lite) lets you reward calm behaviour remotely; Petcube says you can control the amount and distance. To work out your dog's daily food, including what goes in the treat hopper, try our dog food portion calculator. If your dog is anxious around noise, our dogs and fireworks guidecovers what the charities advise, and if you are worried about your dog's behaviour, contact your vet.

Frequently asked questions

How much are dog cameras?

On 21 October 2026 the five we compared cost £17 (Furbo Mini, with a Furbo Nanny plan) to £149.95 (Petcube Bites 2 Lite). Over two years, with the plan that adds recordings and alerts, they came to £169.75 to £269.71.

How much is the Furbo subscription?

Furbo's UK shop showed Furbo Nanny Standard at £67.12 for the first year on a yearly plan (30% off a listed £7.99 a month), with 3 days of video history; Premium keeps 7 days. Furbo says Nanny is optional after a free 14-day trial, but its £39 camera price applies when you buy with a plan.

Is there a dog camera with no subscription?

Yes, for live viewing. Petcube's free Basic plan comes with every Petcube camera and covers live video streaming; video history, smart alerts and downloads need a paid plan (Optimal from £4.99 a month billed yearly).

Do dog cameras record?

Only with a plan, for the cameras here. Furbo Nanny Standard keeps 3 days of video history and Premium 7 days; Petcube Optimal keeps 3 days and Premium 90 days. Petcube's free plan is live view only.

Do dog cameras help with separation anxiety?

A camera does not treat separation anxiety, but it shows you what is happening. Dogs Trust suggests filming your dog or using a remote camera to check for signs of anxiety when alone, and says a camera can help you check your dog stays relaxed during training. It recommends a behaviour expert for a training plan.

How long can a dog be left alone?

Dogs Trust says dogs shouldn't be left alone for more than four hours, and to arrange for someone to pop in or for daycare if you will be out longer.
