How to Prevent Dog Potty Accidents While You’re at Work

Leaving your dog home alone during the workday is a common challenge that many pet owners face. Whether you are gone for a regular eight-hour shift or your job keeps you away longer than expected, it can be tough knowing your dog is inside waiting to go out. You walk through the door, hoping everything is fine, only to discover a potty accident on the floor.

Dog Accidents While You Are at Work Are More Common Than You Think

Even the most well-trained dogs can only hold it for so long. When they are stuck inside without access to the yard, accidents are almost inevitable. It is not your dog’s fault, and it is not yours either. It is simply a result of your dog needing a bathroom break and not having a way to get outside.

The good news is that there is a better option. The Wayzn Smart Pet Door is designed to help dogs like yours stay comfortable and avoid accidents when you are away. It works with your existing sliding glass door, providing your dog with safe, app-controlled access to the outdoors. No construction. No more leaving the door cracked. Just a secure, modern solution that helps your dog stay happy and healthy when you cannot be home.


Why Your Dog Might Be Having Accidents During the Day

Extended workdays aren’t the only reason dogs have potty accidents. Some common reasons include:

  • Long shifts or delays getting home

  • Puppy bladders or aging dogs with incontinence

  • Anxiety or stress from being left alone

  • Health issues or medication side effects

  • Lack of access to the yard when needed

You might try crate training, pee pads, or hiring a dog walker—but those solutions don’t work for every home or every dog. There’s a better way.
