What if pet owners could check in on their pets, know they are safe and even play with them remotely from work, while traveling or from any location with an Internet connection?

iPetCompanion, a Web-based remote pet play system available since 2010 only to humane societies and animal shelters by technology company Reach-In, is responding to thousands of pet parents who have asked for a home version of the system. The HomePlay system is now a project on Kickstarter, and will be funded if at least $150,000 is pledged by June 15.

Motley Zoo Animal Rescue in Redmond uses the pet toy.
