There is provided a method for controlling a robotic vacuum cleaner, the method comprising the steps of: receiving an ultra wide band (UWB) signal from a first UWB device by means of a plurality of UWB antennas; obtaining information on a location of the companion animal based on UWB signals received from the plurality of UWB antennas; and monitoring the companion animal based on the information about the location of the companion animal. Furthermore, an apparatus is provided. 提供了一种用于控制机器人真空吸尘器的方法，该方法包括以下步骤：借助于多个UWB天线从第一UWB装置接收超宽带(UWB)信号；基于从多个UWB天线接收的UWB信号来获得关于伴侣动物的位置的信息；并且基于关于伴侣动物的位置的信息来监控伴侣动物。此外，提供了一种设备。
