Little Friends Dogs and Cats Hearts - Increasing Hearts and Levelling Up Your Pet

In order to make your bond stronger with your pet, you’ll need to gain hearts and level up. Here’s how.

Little Friends Dogs and Cats is a very easy-going game indeed. If you wanted to, you could just hang out with your pet, dressing them up and giving them backrubs. For those looking for a bit more challenge though, you can also focus on levelling up your pet and entering them in competitions. This is where things get a bit more tricky, as there are countless ways to earn hearts and level up your pet. In this Little Friends Dogs and Cats Hearts Guide, we’ll take a look at the fastest ways to level up in Little Friends Dogs and Cats. We’ll explain what to do if your hearts aren’t increasing, and what you’ll get for reaching certain levels.

Little Friends Dogs and Cats: Hearts Not Increasing

This is likely going to be the very first issue you encountered in Little Friends Dogs and Cats, in that you’ll notice you’ve hit a limit for earning hearts. No matter what you do, the pet won’t level up, which can be extremely frustrating when you’re trying to unlock a specific area of the game. Unfortunately, there is a limit to how many Hearts you can earn per day, and therefore how many levels you can clear. We’ve found that on average, you’ll earn around 25 Hearts before hitting the cap, after which you’ll need to wait until the next day to continue levelling.
