Cameras in away mode record pets but not the pet sitter

Rgsoren

I have cameras set to record when in away mode. I can see my pets and get motion alerts except when people who have access are in the house. I have nest doorbell but not using for home / away. Nest thermostat is only using home / away for eco temps.  The only thing I have on presence sensing is my wife’s and my phones.  What am I doing wrong?

Hi Rgsoren,

 

Thanks for posting in our Community. I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with this. Let’s check it out.

 

A few questions: what type of Nest cameras do you have? What is the color of the status light? Do you have an iOS or Android device? Does the issue occur on multiple mobile devices or cameras? Also, are you using the Google Home or the Nest app?

 

Check the event settings for the affected Nest devices. You can follow this handy guide: Nest camera or doorbell settings.

 

Keep me posted.

 

Best,

Lance

Hey Rgsoren,

 

Just one quick final check in here since activity has slowed down. I'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, I would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let me know.
