Indoor internet camera
Looking to see if there is a camera you can sit inside a camper and be able to keep an eye on a dog to see if it’s behaving and being quiet? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

It will have to be able to use a cellular signal, because I would need to use my phone to view the camera.
Always looking for the perfect site.

For any of the remote viewable security type cameras to work, it will need to be able to connect to the internet. You may have access to wifi at a campground, but it will be spotty and probably won't support realtime video streaming, which is what you will be looking at on your phone. Your other option is to install a lte router, subscribe to a data only plan, install a ring type camera, connect it to your network and then you should be able to view the video stream remotely and even yell at your [emoji240] ( if it is warranted of course)

Not sure if this helps, but I had an older Android phone at home. I downloaded the "Alfred Camera App" on both phones. The older phone became my camera, and my current phone is the viewer. I propped the old phone up in the kitchen and can remotely view it from anywhere.
Obviously, you need an internet connection for both phones.
Works great. Even lets you listen to sound.
All for free.

What you use to view the signal doesn’t matter. You can see a camera that uses cellular data or wifi from any device with internet access. The area of concern is providing a constant internet connection for the camera while you are gone. A cellular hot-spot is probably the way to do that.
But the simplest and cheapest option may be a cheap cell phone that can run an app to give you live video. It has a camera and internet built-in and has its own backup battery so it won’t drop if the power goes off.John & Kathy

I use a Larkkey wifi camera from Amazon in our trailer and I've been very happy with it.
Especially sinc it's under $30.If some is good, then more is better, and too much is just right! ~ Shayf
