Pet owners often face challenges when they are away from home for extended periods, particularly regarding the real-time monitoring and feeding of their pets. Traditional pet feeders lack the capability for remote monitoring, leaving owners uncertain about their pets' well-being and unable to intervene if issues arise. This project addresses these challenges by developing an IoT-based pet feeder and monitoring system, expanded to include a water dispenser. Utilizing NodeMCU or ESP32 microcontrollers in conjunction with the Blynk application, the system enables remote feeding, water dispensing, and monitoring of pets. Key features include servo motors for automated food and water dispensing, and a webcam for live video streaming, allowing pet owners to interact with their pets remotely. The integration of Arduino IDE for microcontroller programming and the Blynk app for user interface simplifies operation, making the system accessible to a broad range of users. Rigorous testing ensures the system's functionality, reliability, and safety, providing pet owners with a convenient solution that offers peace of mind through the ability to remotely care for and monitor their pets.
