How Much Does Furbo Subscription Cost?

This article was researched using 14 sources. See our methodology and corrections policy.

Furbo Nanny is the paid software layer for Furbo pet cameras, and the recurring bill changes by tier, billing term, and camera count. As of November 2025, Furbo’s US plan notice lists Standard at $9.99 monthly, $7.99 per month on yearly billing, and $7.49 per month on 2-year billing, with Premium at $12.49, $9.99, and $9.37 on those same billing terms through the 2025 Furbo plan notice.

The bill is built from the Furbo Nanny plan, the payment cadence, extra cameras, and renewal rules. Exact checkout totals can also reflect payment-method fees, plan-required camera bundles, trial timing, and whether the owner is paying through a Furbo account or a mobile app store.

Furbo, Furbo Nanny, Tomofun, Standard, Premium, the Furbo app, Apple App Store, Google Play, Amazon subscription-required camera bundles, video history, smart alerts, pet emergency alerts, home security alerts, extra-camera add-ons, and the Furbo account portal all connect to the same pricing question. A Furbo owner is paying per camera setup rather than per pet, with the largest swings coming from monthly versus annual terms, Standard versus Premium features, and whether saved clips matter more than live view alone.

Furbo Subscription

What you’re actually buying

Furbo is a connected pet camera line used to watch dogs and cats from a phone, speak through the device, and toss treats on models that include that feature. Furbo Nanny is the paid software layer attached to that camera, not a pet sitter, boarding service, training plan, or veterinary monitor.

That distinction matters because the hardware purchase gets the camera into the home, but the recurring plan controls several cloud-based features. A basic indoor camera can show a live feed, and a human pet sitter can visit the home, but Furbo sits between those options by pairing a pet-focused device with app alerts, saved activity clips, and pet-specific notifications.

Furbo beside close pet cameras

Furbo competes with indoor security cameras and pet cameras, but its cost logic is different. A standard indoor camera may be enough for owners who only want to open a live feed. Furbo’s pitch is narrower because it is built around pets, app alerts, treat tossing on compatible models, and video history tied to Furbo Nanny.

Third-party reviewers treat that pet focus as the reason someone would look past a plain home camera. Wired’s Furbo 360 review described the device around rotating pet monitoring and treat tossing, not a broad home-security replacement, through its pet-camera subscription review. That helps frame the tradeoff for owners comparing it with other pet expenses such as ongoing dog ownership costs.

The comparison should stay narrow. Furbo Nanny is not a substitute for a sitter visit, a trainer, or a vet visit. It is a paid camera-service layer for owners who want stored clips and alerts from a pet-focused device rather than a plain room camera.

Billing paths and current tiers

Furbo Nanny billing is mainly a choice between paying month by month and locking in a lower monthly-equivalent rate through a longer term. The plan table below uses Furbo’s US figures available as of June 2026. It separates the recurring plan from the camera purchase so readers can see the service bill without mixing it with hardware sales.

US Furbo Nanny plan pricing, as shown by Furbo in 2025-2026
Plan Monthly Yearly billing 2-year billing Feature difference
Standard $9.99/mo $7.99/mo $7.49/mo 3-day video history and added pet or home alerts
Premium $12.49 (about $5 in 1990 dollars)/mo $9.99/mo $9.37/mo 7-day video history and added premium monitoring tools

A Standard yearly plan at $7.99 for 12 months totals $95.88, which is $24.00 less than paying $9.99 for 12 monthly payments. For Premium, $9.37 for 24 months totals $224.88, compared with $299.76 from $12.49 for 24 monthly payments, a difference of $74.88 before any issuer fee or local charge. Furbo says payment methods may bring foreign transaction or processing fees and that failed payments can suspend access until a valid payment method is charged under its payment and refund terms.

Trial, renewal, and app billing points

The trial is useful only if the owner watches the renewal date. Furbo says a standalone camera trial gives 14 days of full Furbo Nanny access, and all standalone cameras on the account share that same trial period rather than each camera getting a separate trial, according to the trial-and-plan FAQ.

After the trial, the renewal rule matters more than the app button. Furbo says the service renews automatically, must be canceled at least 24 hours before the next term to avoid the next charge, and does not provide prorated refunds for partial terms unless required by law in the account cancellation instructions. Apple App Store and Google Play availability matters because the app is distributed through both stores, but plan handling should be checked where the purchase was started.

There is also a purchase-path split. A camera-only Furbo buyer can use basic functions after the trial, but a subscription-required bundle can carry a minimum service period. That difference belongs in the buying decision before checkout, not after the camera is already on the kitchen counter.

Extra cameras and hidden charges

Furbo Subscription CostThe easiest way for the Furbo bill to grow is adding cameras. Furbo says Standard and Premium plans can scale up to 10 cameras and that each additional camera adds $2 per month in the 2025 plan materials, which makes a second camera a small monthly line item but a real annual change.

A second camera adds $24.00 (about $9.70 in 1990 dollars) per year because $2 times 12 months equals $24.00, and a third camera would add another $24.00 before any payment-method fee. Furbo also says plan upgrades can move monthly users to annual or 2-year terms and Standard users to Premium, but annual-to-monthly and multi-camera-to-single-camera changes require support contact under its plan change path. That support step can matter if the owner is trying to cut the bill before the next renewal.

What owners may pay in real use

Budget case. A standalone Furbo owner who only needs live view, treat tossing, talking through the camera, and barking or meowing alerts can use basic functions with no Furbo Nanny plan after the trial, according to Furbo’s no-plan feature list. That owner still paid for the hardware, but the recurring Furbo Nanny line can be avoided.

Typical case. A dog owner away at work who wants saved clips and safety alerts may pick Standard yearly billing. At the listed $7.99 monthly-equivalent rate, the year comes to $95.88 before any issuer fee. That is closer to a small yearly pet-tech bill than a boarding or dog walker replacement, so it should be judged against what it actually does, remote monitoring.

Premium case. A household with several pets and two Furbo cameras may choose Premium for longer video history and add one extra camera. Using $9.99 per month on Premium yearly billing plus $2 per month for the extra camera, the recurring monthly-equivalent total is $11.99, or $143.88 across 12 months before any issuer fee. That kind of setup belongs beside other pet-care spending, such as recurring grooming bills, not beside a one-time gadget purchase.

A Furbo Nanny total worked out

Assume one owner has a standalone Furbo camera, finishes the trial, and keeps Standard for a year. The itemized bill is simple. Standard yearly billing at $7.99 per month for 12 months equals $95.88, no extra camera adds $0, and the pre-fee recurring total is $95.88.

Now add one extra camera to the same Standard yearly plan. The base plan remains $95.88, and the extra camera adds $24.00 for the year. The pre-fee total becomes $119.88. That number is still far below many veterinary bills, but it is a recurring camera-service cost, separate from medical care such as dog FHO surgery.

  • Standard yearly plan – $95.88
  • One added camera – $24.00
  • Pre-fee annual total – $119.88

When it’s worth paying for

Furbo Nanny makes the most sense when the saved video and alerts change how the owner cares for the pet. It is weaker as a purchase when the owner only checks a live feed once in a while or already has another camera system covering the room.

A buyer should also separate the device from the service. A Furbo camera may still be useful without Nanny in a camera-only setup, but the paid plan is the part that turns the device into a clip-history and alert product. Owners who travel, work long shifts, or manage several pets may get more out of that paid layer than owners who just want to open the app for a quick check.

Makes sense if

  • Your dog or cat stays home alone and you want event clips after work.
  • You bought Furbo for pet emergency, home alarm, or activity alerts.
  • You need more than live view during travel days or long work shifts.
  • You can commit to yearly billing and use the lower monthly-equivalent rate.

Doesn’t make sense if

  • You only need live view, talking, treat tossing, and basic barking alerts.
  • You are unsure you will keep the plan past the trial.
  • You have one pet, one room, and no need for saved clips.
  • You dislike recurring cloud-service bills attached to hardware.

Answers to Common Questions

Can Furbo work without Furbo Nanny?

Yes. Standalone Furbo cameras can keep basic functions such as live view, talking through the camera, treat tossing, and barking or meowing alerts without a paid Furbo Nanny plan.

Which Furbo Nanny plan is the cheaper paid option?

Standard is the cheaper paid tier. Premium costs more and is aimed at owners who want longer video history and added monitoring features.

Does adding a second Furbo camera raise the plan?

Yes. Furbo lists an added monthly charge for each extra camera on Standard and Premium plans, so multi-camera homes should price the account before checkout.

Can I cancel after the trial?

Yes, but cancellation should be handled before renewal. Furbo’s stated policy requires cancellation before the next term to avoid the next charge.
