How to use different email addresses for FaceTime on iPhone, iPad and Mac?

Hi. I’m doing some dog training. I want to set up a FaceTime call between my iPhone, iPad and Mac. Then when I’m out I can see him on my mac when he’s on the sofa and my iPad when he’s by the front door. I read somewhere you can set up FaceTime with a different email address on each device but I can’t see how…

You would need to setup different Apple accounts for FaceTime on each device and then set them to auto answer, otherwise, no one's going to be around to answer the call.

Settings ➜ Apps ➜ Facetime ➜ Apple Account.

A better option for a somewhat low expense security cam would be a 3rd party app that can be enabled remotely for this purpose.

Something like Baby Monitor Looloo.
