We are fostering these two sweet kittens looking for a loving family to call their own.
They were displaced by the devastating July 4th floods in the Texas Hill Country and have been through so much in their short little lives. After weeks of care, love, and healing, they’re finally healthy and ready to be adopted!
They’re incredibly bonded—and we’d love to see them stay together if possible. They’re adorable, affectionate, and playful!
If you or someone you know is looking to adopt a pair of sweet kittens please reach out. 💕

Hi South Austin! 👋 I’m Chelsea — the plant and animal lover behind Leaf It To Me.

After 20 years in accounting (a career I’m still proud of), I realized my heart was being pulled in a different direction. Leaf It To Me was inspired by my own love of travel — and by how hard it was to find someone consistent, professional and trustworthy to look after my home, garden, and pets while I was away. I know the peace of mind that comes when you do have that support, and I’m here to provide it for my neighbors.

🌈 Rainy Day Project: Make a Pollinator Watering Station!

Bees and other pollinators need clean water to stay hydrated, especially during our hot Texas days. And the best part? You can make one out of almost anything.

I threw these together using a pie plate, a plant saucer, and some marbles that I bought at — but any shallow container with safe landing spots will do just fine!

How to Make a Bee Spa:

🐝 Start with a shallow container —
Use something like a pie tin, plant saucer, or even an old dish, just make sure it’s not too deep!

🐝 Add landing spots —
Marbles, pebbles, corks, or small sticks give bees a place to perch without getting their wings wet.

🐝 Sprinkle in some nature —
Drop in leaves, flowers, twigs, anything earthy to make it feel like a mini pond.

🐝 Make it smelly —
Bees find water by smell, not sight. Add just a tiny pinch of pure, non-iodized salt or some garden soil to help them sniff it out.

🐝 Pick the right spot —
Set it up in a garden or flower bed, away from high-traffic spots.

🐝 Keep it full —
Refill regularly so your buzzy visitors keep coming back and bring their friends.

🐝 Get creative —
I made one that’s a rainbow and another that reminds me of bubbles. Yours can be whatever brings you joy. Just keep it pollinator-friendly.

If you're into native plants like us, here's some great news: you can get rewarded for turning your yard into a water-efficient paradise! By replacing part of your lawn with native plants (at least 200 sq. ft.), you could earn up to $3,000 in rebates through the Austin Water WaterWise Landscape Rebate program. Plus, native plants reduce water use and support local wildlife – it's a win-win!

Austin Water also offers rebates for rainwater harvesting systems and landscaping features like rain gardens that help keep rainwater where it’s needed most. It’s a simple way to save water and boost your yard’s resilience through our hot summers.
