One of the most vexing problems that pet owners face is having to leave their pet at home alone.
Forget for a moment the pet owner’s separation anxiety. The saying that a bored mind is the devil’s playground is as true for animals as it is for people.
If you own a pet, how many times have you come home to see some furniture or foodstuffs “mysteriously” chewed on or have some items missing because your pet inadvertently swallowed them? And who can really blame them? Their best buddy is out in the office and it’s not as if they can turn on the TV or binge on Netflix until their owner comes home.
Watch to find out about an AI-controlled robot to keep your pet busy.

But a company called VARRAM which specializes in robotics as it applies to pet technology thinks that they have the solution to pet boredom in the form of their Pet Fitness Robot. According to them, this device will make sure that their pet is never lonely, bored, or anxious.
Powered by artificial intelligence, this pet companion is specifically designed to engage pets with the activity and treats that they deserve even when the owner isn’t home.
The app, which is available on iOS and Android, allows pet owners to create predefined schedules, whether for the robot to dole out treats or play with the pet.
It also has a Manual Mode for treat or play sessions on demand.ByungJo Suh, CEO of VARRAM, said, “Nearly a quarter of dogs suffer from separation anxiety when their owner leaves for extended periods.
These feelings often result in excessive barking and destructive behavior, which is difficult for pets, owners, and neighbors.
When developing this robot, we worked closely with veterinarians and animal behaviorists to design features that would most effectively alleviate stress and improve the quality of life for both pets and their owners.”
If it seems too good to be true that a robot can promote healthy activity and reduce the stress that pets face at being left alone, the product does come with a one year warranty and 30-day money-back guarantee.
