Will your dog running through the living room or your cat climbing the curtains accidentally dispatch the police?
At Prudential Alarm, we understand that a reliable security system must be built to accommodate your entire family, including the furry, four-legged members. We specialize in solutions that minimize false alarms while maximizing total pet safety.
Here is how Prudential Alarm becomes a pet parent’s best friend:
The number one concern for pet owners is motion-triggered false alarms. Our professional systems are designed with advanced intelligence to solve this problem permanently:
Pet-Immune Motion Sensors: Our Passive Infrared (PIR) motion sensors are calibrated by weight and size, often to ignore movement up to 80 pounds. This allows large dogs to roam the ground floor while the system remains fully armed, detecting only the heat signature of a human-sized intruder.
Perimeter-First Strategy: We build your system around Door and Window Contact Sensors first. These sensors secure the true entry points, meaning your alarm is armed the moment a door or window is opened—regardless of where your pet is inside the house.
Professional Calibration: Our expert technicians install and strategically place every motion sensor to reduce the field of view near popular pet “launch zones" (like staircases or cat trees), virtually eliminating pet-related false triggers.
The biggest threat to a pet left alone is often not a burglar, but an environmental hazard that can escalate quickly.
Temperature Monitoring: Pets are highly vulnerable to extreme temperatures. If your furnace fails in a Michigan winter or the AC breaks down in an Ohio heatwave, our integrated Temperature Sensors will alert you (and our monitoring center) the moment the temperature rises or drops to a dangerous level, allowing you to react before your pet is harmed.
Smoke and CO Detection (Their Lifeline): Our professionally monitored fire and carbon monoxide (CO) alarms provide 24/7 protection, even when the system is disarmed. In the event of an emergency, our monitoring center immediately notifies the fire department. When combined with a visible Pet Rescue Alert Sticker on your window (see below), this dramatically improves the chances of a successful pet rescue.
The ability to check on your pet when you can’t be home is invaluable. Our smart system puts you in touch with your furry friends instantly.
Interactive Indoor Cameras: Use our indoor cameras with two-way voice to check in on an anxious pet, reassure them with your voice, or even tell them to get off the counter! You can view live feeds right from your smartphone, ensuring they are safe and comfortable.
Pet-Sitter Access: Heading out of town? Forget the hassle of spare keys. Our Smart Locks allow you to create temporary access codes for pet sitters, which you can activate and deactivate remotely. You also receive a notification every time the unique code is used, providing a secure, auditable record of who entered your home and when.
While our professional environmental monitoring ensures the fire department is called instantly, what happens when they arrive and you’re not home? A fire safety system protects your property, but a Pet Rescue Alert Sticker protects your pet’s life.
Alerting First Responders: Place a visible sticker on your front door or a clearly seen window to alert firefighters that pets are inside and state the number and type of animals (e.g., “3 Cats," “1 Dog"). This simple visual cue ensures they know to look for your beloved companion during their search and rescue efforts.
Where to Get Them: These essential stickers are a low-cost, high-value tool. You can easily purchase them from any major pet supply store or online safety retailer, or request a free safety decal from national organizations like the ASPCA. We strongly recommend all pet owners acquire and display one!
A Note of Caution: Always keep your sticker up-to-date. If you move or lose a pet, remove the sticker immediately so fire crews don’t waste precious time searching for an animal that isn’t there.
You shouldn’t have to compromise on security to keep your pets happy and free. Prudential Alarm specializes in designing smart, integrated systems that deliver maximum protection while honoring your pet’s freedom.
