Seattle, Washington (PRWEB) July 25, 2013 -- For many pet owners, a furry friend is just as important as a human family member, yet the safety and security of pets isn’t often as big of a concern. Keeping pets safe and secure can be relatively simple, if a few precautions are taken on a regular basis.

1. Consider the installation of a home automation system. A home automation system provides new security system features that ensure a pet owner can monitor the well-being of their pet, even if they’re at work or out of the home. If a pet is exposed to a dangerous situation, the pet owner can be alerted through their smartphone or other mobile device.
2. Consider the installation of wireless security systems. Hard-wired security systems can pose a risk to pets, because they can chew through cords and become electrocuted, or become entangled in the cords.
3. Integrate a home security routine into daily pet care—for example, at the same time a pet is walked and fed, remember to also secure all entrances to a home and activate the home’s alarm system. Home intruders can be potentially violent to animals upon breaking into a home, so activating an alarm system everyday isn’t only going to protect valuables—it’s also going to protect pet’s safety.
4. When creating an emergency preparedness plans, don’t forget to include pets into contingency plans. Whether it’s weather or security-related, always have a plan of action for caring for pets, as well as human members of the family.
5. Keep extra pet supplies on-hand in case of emergency, such as a power failure. Just as a homeowner may store canned foods and extra medications, the same should be done for pet foods and medicines.
6. Pet-proof a home regularly. Ensure that there are no dangerous items lying around that a pet could easily reach. Do this often, and particularly after having house guests or service people that could have accidentally left items lying around that could be dangerous to a pet.
