(PRESS RELEASE) PetChatz, a pet technology company that pioneered the treat cam and digital daycare system, announced the availability of PetChatz HDX, the third-generation of the company’s award-winning, patented Greet & Treat videophone that allows pet parents to check in with their pets from anywhere, anytime via their smartphones, tablets or PCs.
The PetChatz HDX delivers better video quality in low-light environments and a wider camera angle to give pet owners a better view of their pets. In addition, PetChatz HDX features 1080p streaming and Wi-Fi connectivity that works on both 2.4 and 5G networks.
“Our latest technology enhancements continue to raise the bar for two-way videophone systems — just in time for the busy holiday shopping season,” said Lisa Lavin, PetChatz founder and CEO. “The PetChatz HDX is the perfect gift for tech-savvy pet owners who want a clear, consistent, reliable connection to their furry friends any time, any place.”
High-tech pet products continue to grow in popularity. In 2018 alone, U.S. pet owners spent $72 billion on their pets, with $565 million of that going to tech-based products. Online sales, which are projected to account for 26% of pet product sales by 2023, are contributing to this growth. For pet product retailers, this represents an opportunity to connect with tech-savvy consumers who want the latest-and-greatest products and who are passionate about giving their furry friends the best.
With PetChatz, pet parents can have two-way video chats, dispense treats, provide calming aromatherapy, play “Brain Games” with the PawCall accessory, stream DOGTV, and record/share videos to ensure their pet is safe, happy and content. And because love is a two-way street, the PetChatz system also allows pets to press the PawCall button and send a notification to their owner if they’re feeling lonely. The durable, pet-safe PetChatz system mounts flush to the wall over an electrical outlet or attaches to a stand accessory or kennel at eye-level, ensuring pet safety and increasing peace of mind for the pet owner while they are away from their fur baby.
According to Lavin, the new PetChatz HDX will be available in October and will be priced under $350. To learn more about PetChatz, visit petchatz.com.
