We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
Yes, yes, your pet is a perfect baby, but sometimes you just cannot handle their stanky breath or fur alll over the place.
1. An activity mat with different sections of ruffles and pockets to keep your pup stimulated while they hunt for treats or to help them slow down from finishing their food .5 seconds after you put it in the bowl (and then puking it all up five minutes later 🙄).
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"My puppy LOVES this mat! He gets super excited whenever he sees it. He sometimes doesn't like to eat his kibble in his bowl, but he has so much fun finding and eating kibble when I hide it in this mat. I heard nose work is also good for reducing separation anxiety in dogs, so I give him this mat whenever I need to leave more than two hours. He deals with separation way better with this. I'm 100% satisfied!" — Bom
Get it from Amazon for $21.49+ (available in three sizes).
2. A genius toilet paper protector for anyone with a kitty (or puppy) who thinks the spinning TP is the best game in the whole house! This will block them from getting ahold of it and unraveling the whole thing down the hallway.
Ns3Dshop / Etsy
Ns3Dshop is a small business based in Franklinville, New Jersey that sells unique giftable items.
Promising review:"It does the trick! One of my cats started using the toilet paper as her new toy, and I had to cover it with aluminum foil to keep her off of it, but that looked like crap (figuratively 😁), so I found this online, and it all worked out perfectly! It works, and it looks so much better!!" — Juan-Carlos
Get it from Ns3Dshop on Etsy for $20 (available in two colors).
3. A double-sided undercoat brush with one side designed for de-matting and the other for coat thinning and de-shedding aka you can finally help speed up your furbaby's shedding so your entire life isn't coated in a layer of fur.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I can't believe I went so long without this dog brush. I own a German 'Shedder' and if you own one too, you know the hair struggle is real. It's like living in a never-ending snow globe of fur. I've tried other brushes that promise the moon but do nothing more than waste money. Not this one! It's like a magic wand for dog hair. With each swipe, it's like I'm peeling away a layer of fluffy clouds. It's not one of those brushes that clings onto the fur for dear life. Cleaning it is a breeze. Just a quick shake and it's ready for action again. No more wrestling with tangled fur. If you've got a German Shepherd in your life, this dog brush is a blessing. It simplifies life, keeps the fur at bay, and turns grooming into a tail-wagging good time. Your couch, bed, and rugs will thank you!" — Elaine
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
4. Or an all-in-one vacuum pet grooming kit that combines de-shedding and grooming attachments with a vacuum that'll suck away all the fur instead of making a bigger mess than you started with.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
The kit includes five attachments: a grooming brush, de-shedding brush, electric clipper with four comb attachments (6mm/12mm/18mm/24mm), a nozzle head, and cleaning brush for collecting any fallen pet hair.
Promising review:"I have two cats (who I found I'm allergic to) and two dogs. They need frequent brushing to ensure that I'm not going into an allergy fit due to the insurmountable hair everywhere. This thing is a beast and has helped so much when it comes to keeping up with some of the shedding that goes around here." — Messer
Get it from Amazon for $99.99.
5. A stain and odor eliminator to clean up those tough messes you've already used sooo many products on. Not only will this stuff get rid of the stain, but it will get rid of the smell. Pet stains can be STANKY, iykyk.
Promising review:"I have an elderly dog who has occasional accidents and a cat with chronic bladder issues. Without this product, I'm pretty sure I would've burned down the house. On fresh accidents, it works with just one treatment. It removes the stains, and more importantly, it completely removes the odors. On older, setting stains, it completely removes stains and odors after several repeat treatments. I've tried so many products over the years. Hands-down, this is the best." — SR Kelly
Get it from Amazon for $19.31+ (available in two sizes and two scents).
6. Or an odor-eliminating spray that doesn't smell like chemicals, but like freshly squeezed oranges. Don't let the delightful scent fool you, this stuff is powerful. Reviewers rave about it *completely* eliminating any odors in their house, and yes, that includes cat pee.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I have a cat who has forever had a fun little habit of peeing on the floor. Carpets, an idle sock, you name it - he will at some point pee on it. I have tried every enzyme and pet odor eliminator there is and this is simply the best. I will not purchase any others. First, I absolutely love the smell. It just smells like oranges. If you like the smell of oranges, you will like this. Second, it actually works. It's the only product I've found that fully removes the urine smell and I do believe it actively reduces my cat's urge to re-pee on whatever beloved household item he's tarnished. Third, this makes a great general floor cleaner. I mix this up with a bit of hot water and use it to mop my floors. It does a great job and leaves my place smelling fresh. Seriously, if you have a pet who likes to pee on your things, this will be your new best friend." — E G
Get it from Amazon for $17.95+ (available in two scents, two quantities, and a two-pack).
7. Orrrr a nontoxic carpet cleaning solution you can put into the carpet cleaner machine you already own and get out those stains that have been haunting you for the past two years.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Sunny & Honey is a family-run small business making cleaning products designed for pet owners who want to keep their homes stain- and odor-free.
Promising review:" A true sensory experience while completing a mundane, laborious chore! The scent from this cleaner was pleasing versus the harsh chemical smell from the other brands out there. Yet, it was able to remove old stains that had been in the carpet fiber for well over seven years. This surprised me as I had just accepted that those stains were there to stay. Plus, it's concentrated so I just used over a bit of the recommended amount. Now the carpet looks great with no grainy feel to it when you walk on it with bare feet; although I did vacuum afterwards. Just as importantly, the carpet does not have the unpleasant odor that has lingered and would rear its ugly head from time to time! Thanks to Amazon for carrying this and making it easy for me to locate on the site!!!" — Marie J.
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
8. A ChomChom roller to remove all the pet hair that is still on your couch even after you've vacuumed. This little tool works on pretty much any surface — furniture, upholstery, blankets, clothes — and you don't have to worry about constantly ripping off *another* sticky sheet because one quick swipe typically fills it up (at least it does when I try to use them to clean my clothes...).
Promising review: "I opted to buy the ChomChom in the hopes of at last having something practical that will help us remove black cat hair from upholstered and carpeted areas of our home. I've used several things over the years, but nothing really worked 'as advertised.' The ChomChom made short, easy work of cat hair removal! No electricity, no big complicated two- or three-part device... just a well-designed, efficient roller that gathers up hair as one rolls it back and forth and deposits it in a closed compartment that's easy to clear out for dumping into the trash. Now, if someone could explain to me how one small cat can continually produce and shed so much hair, I'm all ears." — Marilee
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two colors).
9. And a pet hair–removing carpet rake with a magnet-like rubber head to attract the massive amount of hair that is lodged in your carpet. This thing will pull up piles of pet hair (and probably your hair, too) that you thought you got rid of through vacuuming.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
The handle is incredibly versatile and can extend from 36–60 inches to prevent people of all heights from straining their backs while de-furring their home. BONUS, this is reusable and washable, so no worry about creating excessive waste when you inevitably become obsessed with cleaning your carpets.
Promising review: "Just get this, now. We added a kitty to our family a year ago, and I was starting to feel overwhelmed with the nonstop hair. We have beautiful hardwood floors, and sweeping or vacuuming just seemed to provide a temporary fix. When this amazement came, I did a test run on a hall runner that I vacuum often. The amount of hair that came off terrified me!!!!! For days, I walked around from room to room just sweeping everything. It's almost a miracle. Love, love, love it!" — Pcelica063
Get it from Amazon for $16.55+ (available in different variations including compact, heavy-duty, multi-packs, and just the brush head).
10. A Litter-Robot that senses when your kitty has left the box before rotating and disposing of what they've left behind. Not only does this save you from having to manually clean your litter box, but it also helps reduce odors!
You will still have to remove the waste from the drawer a couple of times a week depending on how many cats you have.
I recently went from owning two cats to three, and it seems to quadruple the amount they go to the bathroom?? Like I'm sure I'm exaggerating, but I feel like I have to clean their boxes constantly. (And that's even after I already added an additional box!) Enter this magical robot. It has all kinds of sensor technology to know when a kitty is in the box, when the litter level is too low, when the waste drawer is full, and more. Basically, it senses the cat and sets a timer, after the cat is gone it starts a countdown before the cleaning process starts. You can adjust the length of the countdown depending on if you want to reduce odors or if you'd rather run it less frequently. When the time is up, it starts rotating and all the clean litter gets sifted out and the dirty clumps of litter continue rotating until being dispensed in a little hole into the waste drawer underneath. Then it rotates the opposite way, refilling the bottom with the litter so it is clean and ready for the next kitty's use. I haven't had it too long, and my two older cats are still a little hesitant, but my youngest has been using it and doesn't seem to mind it at all. This is seriously a game-changer. Highly recommend if you're sick of cleaning out stinky boxes constantly.
Get it from Litter-Robot for $699 (available in two main colors and eight front cover colors).
11. A chew toy designed with a squeaker only your dog can hear. 🙌🏼 Now they can have the time of their life playing with their fave toy without the sound driving you wild. Plus with its chew-resistant lining, this toy will last more than just 20 minutes.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "This product is amazing! We can't hear the squeaker but our dog can from the other room and comes running to play. He also is an aggressive chewer and quickly rips through even 'tough' toys. This toy has lasted several months and he has only ripped off the felt accent pieces. No rips or tears! This is our dog's new favorite toy, and ours too! A must-have!" — Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $13.90+ (available in 12 animal characters and two sizes).
12. A DogBuddy pooper scooper to put an end to picking up hot, smushy dog doo doo with only a thin layer of plastic to protect you. This has built-in poop collect bags so when you use it they automatically come out and bag the 💩 up. Reviewers also love that you can use the same bag several times during one walk!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Check out a TikTok of the DogBuddy scooper in action.
DogBuddy is a small business specializing in pet care products including bowls, mats, and scoopers.
Promising review:"I normally don't leave reviews but this is amazing! It's easy to use and saves so many dog bags if you're taking several dogs on a walk because you don't need to open a new bag for each poop. It also makes the whole process a lot less gross. I would 100% recommend this for dog walks and even picking up poop in the backyard. It holds a lot more than you'd think!" — Joslyn Cavitt
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors).
13. A tooth-cleaning toy with all the fun of a traditional toy (bouncing, squeaky, holding up against their powerful teeth) combined with the added benefit of helping make your pupper's breath at least a little less stanky.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"This toy is very durable we've had it for about two months and it's in still completely intact. Every single toy is ruined within minutes. But this one is winning the battle. And it keeps her entertained for a good while! It's a must-buy!" — Hector Flores
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in four sizes and two versions).
14. And an easy-to-use dental powder you just sprinkle in your fur baby's food to help protect their teeth from plaque and to help keep their gnarly breath at bay. This stuff is full of probiotics and nutrients like zinc, taurine, cranberry powder, and veggie fats to support gum health to keep their mouths in tip-top shape between veterinary dental cleanings.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"My smaller dog unfortunately has pretty bad breath (not your typical dog breath, much worse). Brushing her teeth regularly helps somewhat alleviate the problem, as do dental foams and rinses, but nothing has worked as noticeably as this powder. She has no issues eating it (although, she'd eat anything) and it lasts a while considering that she only goes through one teaspoon a day. I would definitely recommend giving it a try if nothing else is working and medical reasons have been ruled out." — DG
Get it from Amazon for $20.70.
15. A cleaning magnet so you can easily clear away algae coating your tank instead of having to stick your hand inside or dumping the whole thing out to give the fishies the best view of the outside.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Does a fantastic job cleaning the algae — even old stubborn buildup growth — off the inside of my glass aquarium. Works even better than I expected, and the felt pad on the bit that's in contact with the outside of the glass does a decent job cleaning off any water spots and finger/handprints. Also, I have degenerative osteoarthritis, peripheral and small-fiber neuropathy, and hEDS (among other issues), all of which make it very difficult for me to do much of anything with my hands. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to use this thingy, but it was a lot less difficult than I thought it would be." — The Dude Abides
Get it from Amazon for $10.49+ (available in four sizes)
16. A pack of stain-lifting pads because 👏🏼we don't cry over spilled milk👏🏼 and now we won't have to cry over spilled anything (yes, I even mean pet pee and vomit!!) since these pads will soak it up without any effort!! Just lay down the pad, stomp, let it sit, and be amazed when you lift it up.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Get these if your pet has accidents on carpet. Don't think twice — get these!!! They're beyond easy to use and work GREAT!!! Save yourself from the back aching bending over and scrubbing. Open packet, place cleaning pad on spot (no absorbing it up first), step on the cleaning pad, wait 30 minutes–24 hours depending on severity of stain, and then throw pad away. Done and done!!!! Cannot recommend these enough!!!" — Health tchr
Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $27.49.
17. A plug-in multicat calming diffuser kit that may help restore the peace in your house if the kitty fights have gotten out of hand. This is a drug-free solution designed to mimic a mother cat's natural nursing pheromones and help calm tensions between cats.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
This starter kit gets you the diffuser head and one vial of Feliway; refills are also available on Amazon. Keep in mind that this shouldn't replace standard protocol for new cat introductions like keeping them separate for a while, doing smell introductions first, etc.
Promising review: " I can't express enough how much this has changed mine and my cats' lives. Merging two households wasn't easy on the cats. One male cat had a hard time moving into a new house with new pets. He had terrible behavior problems and would cause us and the other cats a lot of stress...We tried everything the vet suggested to reduce these incidences, but getting Feliway was the only thing that worked. He is a completely different cat now. He is calm and his outbursts rarely happen. He has become a couch cat and has turned into the sweetest boy. The other cats aren't stressed anymore and neither are we...It definitely has more of an affect on the male cats than the female. If you aren't noticing a difference with one diffuser I would suggest getting a second. We couldn't believe that this one product could fix everything, but it did...If your cats are having any behavior problems or stress please try this!" — Kristine Spencer
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
18. A double layer litter-trapping mat because you still haven't figured out how to toilet train your cats and you're tired of feeling like you are walking on a beach when you go past their box.
This mat is water-resistant and has a unique design to not only trap the litter, but keep it between the two layers so you can easily dump it back into the box instead of wasting it.
I swear my cats think it's a game to throw as much litter out of their box every time they step foot inside it. But now the joke's on them, this mat makes it incredibly easy to clean up their messes as the majority of the litter gets trapped in the little honeycombs and stored between the two layers. Because of that, you can just wait a little while and eventually open this up and pour it back into the box. That means your house is cleaner AND you are wasting less litter because you can put it back instead of having to vacuum it up and throw it away. That my friends, is what I call a win-win.
Promising review:"I have purchased A LOT of mats that are supposed to help with litter control and have had very little success with finding anything worth using long term. Until now!! I bought two of these mats….one for under the litter box and one for outside in front of the box as the cats jump out and go on their way. So far these mats have caught 99% of the litter! They are very sturdy, yet soft. Before I bought these, I was constantly sweeping litter at the doorway and vacuuming the pieces that somehow made it to the rug. Not anymore!!! These mats catch nearly all litter. They are easy to clean. And very easy to pick up and dump. This will now be my forever go-to mat. And if you don't have cats and just need something easy to clean to catch outside dirt and such, get this!! Worth every penny!!!" — HB
Get it from Amazon for $10.27+ (available in two sizes and three colors).
19. An elevated pet food bowl to stop the kibble pellets from being thrown all over your floor and water splashing up your walls. This nifty tray will collect the stray food in the top tray and spilled water in the bottom basin so you don't find yourself cleaning after every meal.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"My two cats always had a habit of playing with their water bowls and spilling water everywhere. I hated cleaning it up constantly. I was looking for a solution when I came across the Neater Feeder and thought it was a great idea. It is small but it's the perfect size for both my cats. Not only did this product look super nice when I set it up, but it also actually worked!! All of the water got trapped on the bottom and the food was trapped on the top as well. Made cleanup so much easier. I am so happy with this product and highly recommend." — Kelli Palen
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in three sizes, six versions, and four colors).
20. A cord protector designed to help protect your cords from those (freakishly) sharp teeth our furry friends have.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"So I have one of those cats who chews on electrical cords. I can't begin to tell you how many cords she has chewed through — alarm clocks, lamps, and all of the charging cords for our phones. I was pretty sure I'd find her fried one day. I was hoping for ANY kind of help to get her to stop chewing, and then I came across these sleeves. They're easy to install and can usually wrap around more than one cord at a time, which is helpful for the TV equipment (cable box and DVD player). Just open the sleeve and slide the cords inside. So far, my cat hasn't chewed any cords since I encased everything in these sleeves! Be sure to have scissors available for install, since you can cut these to any length you want. I've purchased this same item twice, to outfit all of the exposed cords I could find!" — impossible girl
Get it from Amazon for $6.79+ (available in 15 sizes and three colors).
21. A waterless cat bath because you know your cat isn't gonna be willing to hop into a real bath but sometimes they ~stank~ and something needs to be done about it. This leave-in foam is here to save the day — it'll help moisturize their skin and leave them fresh and clean.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"A beautiful female stray adopted us a few years ago. Against my husband's wishes we brought her in our home and she is now a loving part of our family. Since she is indoor/outdoor (she loves her outdoor time still — we hate it!) she gets stinky. Usually I wash her down with a cloth. But this last time she had an odor that was just horrid. You literally could smell her across the room. We tried a few things and nothing worked. Ordered this foam and I am not going to say she 'liked it' but she did smell better. She is extremely particular about where you can touch and where you can't, so having myself and my daughters rubbing her with foam wasn't her best experience! Using this is going to be her only bathing options from now on. Would definitely recommend!" — Lisa Valentino
Get it from Amazon for $5.98.
22. An odor-eliminating candle specifically made to help mask the *pungent* smells that can somehow be created by such adorable, furry creatures.
I Just Make Scents is a small biz based in Lexington, North Carolina owned by a husband-and-wife team. They sell hand-poured soy candles.
Promising review:"The item came QUICK and was AMAZING. Definitely exceeded my expectations. I LOVED the scent; everything about it was just perfect. I needed a candle to get rid of a pet smell in my home, and when I tell you, within ONE HOUR the smell was almost completely unrecognizable. I could not smell any dog back there!!! The dog smell was VERY bad and strong in my house, so I KNOW this candle is strong with taking out a bad smell in the house. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! I really love it, and I'm about to buy five more candles and will continue to do so!!! Only thing I wish they had was a bigger candle 'cause their candles are quite small. … But I love them, and they do the job!!!" — Elicia
Get it from I Just Make Scents on Etsy for $11.99.
23. A cleaning spray designed to help dissolve stubborn bird drippings that are notoriously hard to get rid of. And if you aren't someone who owns a bird, this is great for outdoor furniture that frequently gets bombarded with fly-by poops.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Absolutely love this cleaner. We have a macaw and the cage we built is wood and steel wire. Nothing was really getting the poop off of the wood but this did as soon as I sprayed it on. It cleaned it so effortlessly. We will be using this a lot." — Crystal Barnes
Get it from Amazon for $18.95.
24. A pet-resistant screen because if there's one thing I know about pets it's that they have ~sharp~ claws and they specifically love to stick them through screens. This is made of tough polyester yarn and is designed to not be easily damaged by them, even if they happen to be real monsters that decide the screen door would be a fun climbing challenge.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I have cats who like to hang on my screens, and this stuff has held up now for almost two months without even one spot that has ripped. It is a little darker than my old screen, but once it was in window, you can hardly tell difference. Regret not getting this years ago." — jen k
Get a 36"x84" screen from Amazon for $16.60.
25. A set of mini combs to gently detangle the fur around your pup's eyes and help get rid of the crusted-on boogies that have been collecting there…and yes, this will help make sure no one can refer to your precious baby as a crusty white dog!!
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I have a goldendoodle who had very weepy eyes as a pup due to a blocked tear duct. These combs have been lifesavers! When I first got Jane, I struggled to keep her eyes clean of exudate. I tried tear removers, I tried soaking the area with a wet cloth, I tried wet cotton balls — you name it, I tried it and nothing would work to remove the stains or exudate. These little suckers though.....these things work!! At first they were difficult to use because as a puppy, Jane wasn't used to having me 'pick' around her eyes with combs. Once she became comfortable though (and it took a couple of weeks of daily practice) and once I became comfortable and confident I wasn't going to poke her eyes out, cleaning her eyes became easy! She no longer has copious amounts of sticky exudate stuck on her face, there is no smelly eyes and I am happy to report that her tear stains are all gone since I'm able to keep her eyes so clean now. I use these a couple of times a week on her and now she just sits while I clean around her eyes. She is comfortable and these have never caused her any pain or discomfort. Great tool and must have for anyone with fur babies!" — Kimberly V.
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $3.82.
26. A pee-finding UV flashlight because more often than not your nose can smell the pee but you cannot for the life of you find where the deed was done. This will help you locate the scene of the crime so you can actually clean it up and (hopefully) eliminate the smell.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"OMG this is disgusting! I bought this because I thought my cat was peeing in one room and couldn't find the exact spot. Found the spot and more. Would recommend. Pictured is the same spot without and then with the UV light on." — Momof3boys
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
27. And a set of puppy pads since we know potty training is ~hard~ and sometimes they aren't gonna be able to wait until you get home to go. These will help save your carpet from a mess so you can at least have an easy cleanup.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"These are my favorite pee pee pads for training as young as three weeks old. They absorb well and are big enough for little puppies who are wobbly and just starting to get around on their own. Teach 'em when they are young." — Ruby The Pomsky
Get a pack of 25 from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in three sizes and two versions).
28. A clever Door Buddy latch for any multi-pet families who may need to keep their doggo out of places your kitty is allowed to go (i.e. wherever their food is so the dog can't gobble it all up and leave your poor kitty hungry).
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "We have a Boston Terrier who LOVES cat food but it makes him extremely sick. We needed something to keep him out but let the cats in so we tried this. It works so well, we bought a second one for our bedroom so the cats at night can come and go as they please but it keeps the dog in our room and out of their hair if they choose to wonder the house! I'm not sure how I lived without it but I won't be without it now!" — Mickey Bergman
Get it from Amazon for $16.94.
29. A litter deodorizer you just sprinkle in your cat box to help minimize the ~pungent~ odors they leave behind. And it doesn't have a fragrance, so you don't have to worry about it irritating them or deterring them from using their designated potty.
www.amazon.com
NonScents is a small business that specializes in pet products and household deodorizers.
Promising review: "We have seven cats who share 10 litter boxes. Needless to say, things can get pretty smelly, pretty fast! We can't change out the litter as often as we would like, or we would be completely bankrupt with the price of cat litter now. So, I decided to purchase the NonScents Cat Litter Deodorizer. I'm so happy I did!! It truly extends the life of our litter so we're not changing it as frequently. It definitely keeps the odor under control. I'm a happy cat mommy!!" — L. Holleman
Get it from Amazon for $11.67+ (available in four quantities).
30. A suction-cupped licky mat perfect for any puppers who aren't the biggest fans of bath time. Just slap it on the side of the tub, lather on some snackies (peanut butter, yogurt, etc.), and you'll {hopefully} have a splash-free cleaning sesh.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I love this, it's the second one we bought. I found the first one at a dog show and was a little skeptical, but thought we'd try it because I have two pups afraid of baths and who hate getting brushed. It has worked great with peanut butter and fat free yogurt. I will say the key is to freeze them, hence the need for two...but also be careful with the suction cups, they work very well, but my puppy bit the corner off one, it still works but looks silly." — Shortcake
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
31. A bag of Pill Pockets for your pets whose sniffers are good enough to tell that there is a sneaky pill hiding inside their fave treat. Like seriously how is it possible they can eat every bit of the peanut butter or cheese or wet food and manage to avoid that tiny pill?! This should help you actually get them to take their meds without you having to shove it down their throat.
Promising review:"OK, so my dog can sniff out the tiniest pill in her food be it a piece of chicken, peanut butter, etc, etc, I have tried them all. My vet told me about these and I honestly didn't think they would work, since nothing else I tried had worked... well, I did give it a try and THEY WORK! She actually is excited when I open the Pill Pocket package, she has not sniffed out any pills and gobbles them up. Seriously, if you have a picky dog, give these a try." — Anonymous

Bryce Dallas Howard Doesn't Care If You Think Her Wearable Electromagnetic Frequency Devices Are Woo-Woo
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. There's no right way to 'do' wellness, but Marie Claire's Doing Well offers a glimpse into the self-care mantras, therapies, and affirmations practiced by industry trailblazers. When I finally log into my Zoom with Bryce Dallas Howard—late, thanks to classic tech issues—I expect awkwardness and scrambling. Instead, she smiles big, laughs, and says, "That gave me some extra time to apply my lip!" Her vibe? Down-to-earth, sharp, and quick-witted. Then I clock the product in her hand: the unmistakable bright purple, stacked compact from my newest beauty brand favorite. "Wait—is that Subtl Beauty?" I ask. We instantly bond over a shared "I'm obsessed" before she tells me she discovered it mid-flight, while overhearing the brand's founder in the seat in front of her (hi, Rachel!). "I DMed her as soon as we landed," she laughs. That's when I knew this wasn't going to be your standard celebrity profile. Howard doesn't do small talk or scripted interviews. Chatting with her feels more like catching up with your smartest, most grounded friend—the one who, oh yeah, just directed a Disney+ documentary and is starring in an upcoming Prime Video action-comedy (it premieres June 12 on Amazon, mark your calendar). Between our conversation about Pets (the documentary that was inspired by her personal relationship with animals) and Deep Cover (think improv comedy meets undercover sting operations), it's clear she's been busy. But when I ask how she manages to juggle everything and have a good relationship with wellness at the same time, it becomes clear that Howard's approach isn't about control or perfection. Instead, it's about joy and self-kindness. She's candid about emotional eating, talks openly about walking away from diet culture, and finds happiness in the things she values the most, big or small—like frequency devices, a skincare product she's been scraping from the same jar since 2017, and the cute animal videos she binges that send her into a dopamine spiral. Howard isn't here with a wellness playbook—just real talk about listening to your body, ditching the guilt, and finding calm in the everyday. Oh, and, of course, she's got her lip on. I'm a huge fan of frequency healing. When I'm stressed or feeling overwhelmed, I put on frequency sessions. It helps me drop out of the mental chatter and just be present. I wear these devices—I actually just ordered a new one. It's a Trinity. My mom wears hers pretty much around the clock. My husband's been having sinus issues, so we busted it out for him today. I just really believe in that stuff—frequencies, EMFs, radiation, all of it. It's powerful. I'm very into it. Over the years, I've learned to pay attention to it whenever something pops up. My mom used to get cold sores on her lips, and now she keeps it on the 'cold sore' setting. She hasn't had one in years. It's this thing where you can use sound, vibration, or electromagnetic frequencies to help your body and mind reset and relax. It feels like this deep recalibration. I had my first experience with it a few years ago, and I was like, 'Whoa, what is this?' It's one of those things that sounds woo-woo but actually makes a huge difference in how I feel physically and mentally. I usually reach for something that's calm and doesn't require much brain energy. It's less about active learning and more about a pause. Usually, videos of pets. Online comedy. Laughter is the most powerful form of self-care for me. When I'm feeling really overwhelmed, I like to take a break and watch videos of animals—pets doing silly, joyful things. It's such a quick way to ground myself and bring a little lightness back into the moment. If I have just 10 minutes to reset, I'll watch videos of animals being their goofy, authentic selves. There's something about their pure joy and spontaneity that immediately shifts my mood. That kind of lightheartedness is pure medicine for me. In our hectic lives, we often forget how much animals ground us. That's exactly what I wanted to capture in my new documentary, Pets on Disney+—the deep, sometimes surprising, relationships that enrich our well-being. I basically made Pets as a place to house all those wonderful, funny videos that just make me laugh. The Retrouvé Revitalizing Eye Concentrate. Okay, I'm going to admit something I probably shouldn't...a bottle of this lasts forever. I'm still using one I got in 2017. And I did get another one—basically, I tend to pick one up every time I do a movie. So I got a new one in 2020. But I still have both—they just never seem to run out. You only need the tiniest dab. It's so powerful. Weleda Skin Food. I put it everywhere—especially around my mouth. I'll let it sink in like a moisturizing mask. I use it daily; I have eczema, so I'll use it on my hands too, and it's the only thing that helps. By taking things one day at a time, and trying to stay playful. That also kind of ties in with [my new movie] Deep Cover. I play a comedy improv teacher in the movie. Improv helps you stay present, listen, and build on what's already there. So instead of reaching or constructing something unrealistic, I'm trying to be grounded in the here and now. Laughter, playfulness, staying present, moment to moment. That's what really helps. I paint! I'm finishing up an online fine arts program at the Milan Art Institute—I'm in the portfolio phase right now. Even when I'm not working on portfolio pieces, I'll do watercolor or something. It's constant, I have all my [painting] supplies right here next to me. Being a raw foodist. And it's not a knock on veganism—I'd totally do that again. But I was a vegan raw foodist, and raw food was just one step too far. I did it for three and a half years, and when I stopped, it was a big deal because it became a real health issue, especially during pregnancy and after. I saw four doctors, and each of them said, 'You're missing amino acids and essential nutrients. You need to eat some meat.' I was like, 'No.' The last doctor said, 'Bryce, I completely respect your choice, but you're going to have to decide between your ethics and your future.' It was really emotional starting to incorporate meat again—I felt like I was betraying my values. And it's still something I struggle with: where's this coming from, and what's the real cost of this choice? Because the slaughterhouse industry is incredibly abusive. So yeah, the veganism I still value, but I took it too far with the raw foodism. Still, I've learned a lot from it and kept a lot of those tenets in my life. Well…I could definitely improve. But there are two big things for me: First, I don't diet or try to manipulate what I eat or how I move in order to control how I look. When I stopped doing that—when I stopped trying to fit into a certain size—my health totally turned around. I was finally listening to my body again. It became a collaboration instead of a dictatorship shaped by outside pressure. So not dieting has been huge. I don't let my appearance dictate what goes into my body anymore. The second thing is kind of on the other end of the spectrum—I have celiac, so I can't eat gluten. And in the last few years, I developed a pretty severe allergy to eggs. I can still eat eggs if they're baked into something, but if I have scrambled eggs? Whoa. I get just so, so sick. Then, about two years ago, I started to get a very similar reaction to coffee, so I had to give that up as well. Now, more than ever, I am careful not to be restrictive in any way that isn't medically necessary, because there are already so many foods I literally can't have. But hot chocolate works great. Honestly, better [than coffee]. I need a shirt that says 'Powered by Hot Chocolate.' I'd talk about dieting. I'd say: if you knew with certainty that no matter what you did physically, or what you ate, it would have zero impact on your weight or size—how would you eat? How would you move? That kind of framing forces you to reconnect with what you actually enjoy and what actually feels good. It shifts your relationship with your body into something supportive and appreciative. I really believe in the power of emotional eating. I think it's beautiful. People demonize it, but to me, emotional eating can be a way to ground yourself, reconnect, even heal. When you can make food choices that reflect how you feel and you're not judging yourself—that's holistic wellness. I stopped dieting ten years ago, and healing that relationship has been miraculous for me. I've raised my kids that way too, and they're so much more in tune with their own needs than I ever was. I say 'healthy' with caution, but they have a grounded relationship with food. One of them doesn't like meat and just naturally avoids it. The other one doesn't like sugar. They crave salads. It's wild. Of course, there was a lot of brainwashing growing up—in the '80s, '90s, early 2000s—about how we should relate to food. What I'm saying might not work for everyone, but it works for me. I feel empowered not to change myself through things that don't actually serve or support me.

7 top new movies to stream this week on Prime Video, Hulu, Disney Plus and more (June 10-16)
This week is packed with a bunch of new movies hitting the best streaming services. They include Prime Video's original crime-comedy "Deep Cover," which sees an improv teacher and two of her students pose as hardened criminals to infiltrate London's criminal underworld. There's also the release of "Snow White" on Disney Plus and Rami Malek's "The Amateur" getting a digital streaming release. Hulu and HBO Max will have new movies to watch, too, but the title I'm most intrigued about is "Echo Valley," a new thriller arriving on Apple TV Plus. If you're looking to stream something new this week, I'll be sharing all the top new movies across streaming services. Plus, be sure to check out all the top new TV shows you'll want to binge-watch this week as well. Fresh off a string of intriguing genre projects, Rami Malek stars in 'The Amateur,' a grounded, slow-burn espionage thriller that does things a little differently than your usual spy fare. Directed by James Hawes, this cerebral thriller plays it cool, focusing less on gadgets and globe-trotting and more on grief and obsession. Malek plays a CIA codebreaker devastated by a personal tragedy. When red tape blocks him from getting justice, he takes matters into his own hands by forcing his way into the field and setting off a chain reaction of internal conflict and covert danger. And no, this isn't an action-packed Bond riff. It's a tight, deliberately-paced character study that asks how far someone's willing to go when pushed to the edge. Also starring Rachel Brosnahan, Jon Bernthal, and Laurence Fishburne, 'The Amateur' might not be flashy, but the slow-brewing tension and restrained performances make it a satisfying watch for those who like their thrillers smart and serious. Buy or rent on Amazon from June 10 Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. 'Clown in a Cornfield' tries to lean into the campy slasher vibes its title promises, but despite the blood and greasepaint, it never quite sticks the landing. Based on the cult YA novel by Adam Cesare, the movie follows a group of teens who find themselves stalked by a deranged killer clown called Frendo in the middle of rural America. Sounds like it should be a blast, right? Unfortunately, this one's a real misfire. In a year full of inventive horror flicks, 'Clown in a Cornfield' stands out for all the wrong reasons. The tone is all over the place, the characters are incredibly annoying, and there's just too much cringe humor. It doesn't even manage to hit that sweet spot of being 'so bad it's good.' Still, if you're a slasher completionist, there are a few silver linings: Some of the kills are enjoyably gnarly, and the clown costume design is weirdly fun to look at. Buy or rent on Amazon from June 10 Disney's live-action 'Snow White' finally arrives on Disney Plus, and while it doesn't quite reach the heights of the studio's strongest remakes, it's not without its merits. Directed by Marc Webb and starring Rachel Zegler as the iconic princess, this retelling makes a clear effort to modernize the story with updated themes and some fresh musical choices. However, despite a few visually striking moments and Zegler's natural screen presence, 'Snow White' does struggle to justify its existence. Much of the charm that made the original an enduring classic is nowhere to be found, and it turned out to be far less compelling than the social media uproar might have led you to expect. But for younger viewers or die-hard Disney fans, there's just enough appeal to make it worth a watch. It may not be a classic in the making, but it offers a soft, visually pleasing experience that's easy to put on for a cozy night in. Watch on Disney Plus from June 11 'Deep Cover' is one of Prime Video's more intriguing original releases this year. The premise: a team of improv comedians goes undercover. And based on the trailer, this crime comedy looks like a wild, over-the-top dive into London's offbeat criminal scene with plenty of laughs along the way. Kat (Bryce Dallas Howard) is an improv teacher stuck in a rut and wondering if her big break has passed her by. That changes when a mysterious undercover cop (Sean Bean) presents her with an unexpected opportunity: help him pull off a risky infiltration of London's criminal underworld. Sensing her moment, Kat ropes in two of her most eager students (Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed) to pose as hardened criminals, diving headfirst into a world far beyond the stage. Watch on Prime Video from June 12 'Absolution' quietly dropped in theaters last November, but it finds new life this month as it hits Hulu. Liam Neeson plays a fading mob enforcer battling memory loss and years of regret, trying to make peace with his estranged daughter while dodging the violent fallout of his past. Directed by Hans Petter Moland, 'Absolution' doesn't do anything new, but it leans hard into the noir vibes — bleak lighting and just enough grit to keep you hooked. Neeson does what Neeson does best, growling his way through emotional monologues and brutal fight scenes, even if the material feels a little too familiar. It's not a must-watch, and at times it drags, but there's something satisfying about its stripped-down simplicity. If you're a fan of Neeson's late-career crime roles, this one fits comfortably in the rotation. Watch on Hulu from June 13 I thought I had made a mistake by reading the reviews before watching 'Cleaner,' since I usually avoid doing that. But going into this action-thriller with low expectations actually helped me enjoy it, and I ended up pleasantly surprised. 'Cleaner' centers on Joey (Daisy Ridley), a former soldier turned high-rise window cleaner working on One Canada Square in London. During a gala hosted by a major energy corporation, eco-terrorists seize the building, using sleeping gas to take around 300 hostages. High above the chaos, suspended outside on a glass platform, Joey and her autistic brother accidentally witness the attack and become the building's unlikely lifeline. Don't expect anything groundbreaking when going into this thriller. Unfortunately, it leans a little too heavily on familiar tropes from better movies to truly stand out, but there's still plenty of fun to be had along the way. Watch on HBO Max from June 13 There's just something about a slow-burn psychological thriller with a messy mother-daughter dynamic that always pulls me in, and based on the 'Echo Valley' trailer, this looks like exactly that kind of story. Julianne Moore stars as Kate, a former competitive rider now living a quiet, grief-tinged life training horses in rural Pennsylvania. Things take a sharp turn when her daughter Claire (Sydney Sweeney) shows up one night, bloodied and clearly in shock. She says she's done something awful… and that's when the real unraveling begins. Written by 'Mare of Easttown' creator Brad Ingelsby, I'm expecting morally murky choices, emotional gut punches, and characters who don't fit neatly into 'good' or 'bad.' Throw in Domhnall Gleeson as a cryptic figure from Claire's past, and it's even more intriguing. Watch on Apple TV Plus from June 13
