The best locations for pet monitoring security cameras depend on the type of camera. Indoor Wi-Fi security cameras, for example, are easy plug-and-play cameras that can be easily moved around your house anywhere where there is an outlet. Outdoor Wi-Fi security cameras and wired security cameras are best utilized when installed higher up (on a wall or under a soffit, for example). This allows the camera to provide a larger field of view to monitor.  

Yes. All Lorex Smart Home Wi-Fi security cameras (and some select wired cameras) include both a microphone and speaker. This allows you to use the Lorex Home App to speak through the camera to deliver instructions or to train your pet while you're away or in another room.

Most likely not. Battery-Operated security cameras (or wire-free security cameras) are easy to install in difficult locations, making them ideal for exterior monitoring. However, they are designed to conserve battery by only turning on when motion is detected, then going back to standby-mode after a select number of seconds. Pets, such as dogs, will cause the camera to turn on every time it runs by and hence drain the battery at a much faster rate. So, Wi-Fi cameras or wired cameras that have constant power sources will be a better solution with less maintenance.
