Pet Food Feeders That Dispense Kibble to Your Animals When You Can’t

Your ability to go on day trips or stay overnight somewhere might depend on your pet. Think about how many times you’ve said “we have to go, because we have to feed the dog.” Fido and Fluffy are on a strict feeding schedule—or maybe you’re lucky and have animals that snack throughout the day. Regardless, someone needs to be there to fill up the bowl when it gets low, or for specific meals. Luckily, there are manual and electronic feeders that can feed your dog or cat for you.

We rounded up the best pet food feeders. We picked two gravity-based options, which only fill up when your pet has finished the food that was sitting in the bowl. It’s low-maintenance and effective. You don’t need to wonder whether you turned on the feeder before leaving. It’s all ready to go. We also picked an electronic option, for greedy dogs and cats who can barely wait for you to set the bowl down before eating. With this pick, you’re able to set four timed feedings and even record your own voice calling your pet to dinner. See which one is right for you below.
