Cell-Based RV Temperature Monitor for Pets

[WinnieT]

Hi Everyone,
Looking for suggestions for a reliable interior temperature monitor for pets. We're new to RVing with pets and our golden retriever comes with us most everywhere. This time of year with temps soaring and our generator keeping the AC going while he can't be with us we worry about a failure or tripped breaker or something as it can get real hot real quick in an RV. Thanks in advance.

We use Yolink system as it has many sensor options and you can set alarms to email you, but you must have internet running in the motorhome for it to work. The first purchase you buy the hub and the temperature sensor, then after that just buy the sensors.
Once you see all the sensors, you can add a temp sensor to your freezer for example and set it to email you if temp gets too high. They also have water sensors if you want one in your bathroom or under sink to catch a small or large water leak. The system is very reliable and sensors are reasonable.
For example, here is the hub and 2 temperature sensor on Amazon for 39.98.

Thanks P and D. I guess I should have stated we need a cell based service. We have a Class B but no onboard internet other than our cell phone hotspots we use when on the road.

We use Waggle. We leave it plugged in all the time. It has its own rechargeable battery inside of it in case of a power outage. Notifying you if anything changes.

Thanks. We bought a Necto but will check out Waggle.

We have an M6 Pro router which links wifi to 5G . We have t-mobile. We use a Govee temp sensor, a SwitchBot hub which monitors temp, and the MicroAir thermostat over wifi, so we have 3 separate ways to monitor temp while we are away.

We use Necto for the time being, if we have access to WiFi we will use our Micro Air thermostat and a Eufy camera. I wish someone would make a Necto style unit that does both Cellular and WiFi. We also have a handfull of Govee sensors that we primarily use at home. I have snagged a couple of the BT ones to use in the RV water compartments in colder weather.

Not sure if this would help Aaron. Govee makes bluetooth to wifi gatways. Very annoying to setup but once working they are pretty good. This is how i monitor my fridge etc...

We have one at home, mainly for fridges and freezers. I like the WiFi/BT monitoring units they are dead simple to set up. I have 7 at home.
