The need for more effective veterinary supplies is rising along with the annual increase in the number of households with pets. In this area, this has supported the growth of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. Pet owners can use IoT technology to remotely monitor their pet’s health, follow their position and activity, and even communicate with their dogs.
In the everyday lives of people who have pets, all of these intelligent pet care products are essential. The current project uses Internet of Things (IoT) technology to create a combined system that includes a litter box, water container, and pet food feeder—the three main things that pet owners worry about when they are busy or away from their animals.
The three subsystems are connected to the local network with Arduino Uno boards and Wi-Fi modules. Additionally, an application for smartphone processes and displays the data gathered from all the sensors. As a result, animal owners may access all the information on their pet’s food and water intake as well as the frequency, timing, and time frame of their bowel movements through a single interface.
Furthermore, the program has a controlling feature that allows pet owners to dispense food at any time and from any location. The program displays an overall statistics chart with the aforementioned information. Which is periodically updated. We provide pet owners an effective, practical, and affordable pet care solution with this pet care system via a smartphone application.
Smart Pet Feeder

Through the use of this trial, the pet’s owner may provide food and water at the time that works best for them. An ATMEGA32 controller is used to operate the suggested system. A conical container for storing pet food made out of ply board that was gathered from garbage. Through a PVC pipe attached to the bowl. A servomotor has been interfaced to regulate the food’s outflow.
To check the weight of the meal, the bowl is set on a load cell. Using a keyboard. The owner may set the timing and amount of food to be served based on the weight of the food in the bowl at any given moment. The water level in the container has been tracked and replenished using a float sensor.
Automatic Pet Water Dispenser
When a bottle, glass, or other object is close to the dispenser outlet, automated water dispensers start to flow water. Using a flowing system or burst, a computerized engine continually moves water through a filter. before delivering it into the vessel.
