9 Best Automatic Dog Feeder With Camera | Eyes On The Bowl

Thirty-three cups of kibble and a camera watching it — for a mid-size dog and a busy week.

The number that decides everything here is 33 cups. That is an 8-liter hopper, and it means you top it up far less often than a 3-liter machine — a real difference if you travel or work long shifts. It is also the lightest feeder in this whole round-up at 2.4 kg, and it stands on a compact 7″L x 5″W x 9″H base, so it tucks away tighter than the bulkier PETKIT options. Feed scheduling goes up to 15 meals a day with portion control, handled through the app over 2.4G or 5G WiFi.

The camera side is straightforward and useful: 1080P resolution with night vision, live video in the app, and two-way audio so you can hear and talk to your dog. There is a locking lid and a stable base to stop a curious dog from tipping it or nosing the lid off, and the tray and tank detach for cleaning. Portion calibration is worth doing on day one — the portion sizes are consistent once you set them, but a bigger dog can need several clicks to reach a full meal, so measuring your dog’s usual serving once and matching it to the dial saves a lot of second-guessing.

Owners describe it as dependable over months of daily use, and quality is the trait it is praised for above all else. It handles bigger kibble without complaint — one owner feeding two Aussie cattle dogs twice a day called it reliable after four to five months and noted the free app webcam works well. The honest limit: it is at its best with smaller meals. Feed it large single amounts and the chute is more likely to jam, so a dog on big portions may need the meals split. Two-pet homes using small-to-medium kibble get the smoothest ride.

Fifteen scheduled meals a day, ninety-nine portions each — this one is built for precise control.

Nobody else in this group gives you this much room to fine-tune. You can program 1 to 15 meals per day with up to 99 portions per meal, and each portion is roughly 1/16 cup — small enough that you can build a genuinely custom plan instead of picking from a handful of presets. The 5-liter tank holds 21 cups of dry food, which covers an adult cat for up to 3 weeks or a small dog for up to 1 week. The camera is a 1080P unit with night vision on a wide field of view, and motion detection pings your phone when your pet shows up at the bowl.

Three details separate this from cheaper feeders. First, the freshness system: a twist-lock lid with a silicone seal ring, a dedicated desiccant compartment, and what the maker calls a Freshness Lock rotor that seals the food outlet between feeds to keep air and ants out. Second, the stainless steel bowl is removable for cleaning, and it has a whisker-friendly curved shape. Third, the food tank detaches without unplugging anything, so you can carry it to the kibble bin instead of scooping at the machine.

Owners consistently point to build quality and setup ease as its best traits, and the app — built with Tuya, the maker of the Smart Life app — supports sharing access with family members and over-the-air updates that keep refining motion detection. Portion control that actually holds a routine is the happy theme: an owner with a cat on a twice-daily schedule described it as well built, easy to clean, and worth the money. The real caveat is the clamp that controls simultaneous dispensing at the high tray position, and the camera’s narrower vertical framing — it watches the bowl well but will not cover a whole room. A handful of units have thrown a food-tray-blocked error early on, so keep your receipt handy within the first weeks.

A camera you can steer across the room, so the bowl is never out of frame.

Most feeders bolt a lens onto a fixed spot and hope the action lands in shot. WOPET gives you a 160° wide-angle lens with 70° of vertical rotation, which means you can tilt the view down to the bowl or up to catch a dog padding across the floor. It records 1080P HD with night vision, and it takes a micro SD card up to 256GB — a 4GB card is included, so you get local storage without a subscription. That last point matters, because video saved to a card is yours, not rented.

The feeding side keeps pace. You can schedule up to 10 meals a day with 1 to 20 portions per meal, all through the WOPET Life app over dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi. A 6-liter hopper feeds a small dog for a good stretch, and a low-food sensor sends an alert before the tank runs dry. Two-way audio lets you talk and listen in real time, and you can record a personalized 10-second meal call that plays as food drops. Multi-user access means everyone in the house can check in, and 3 D-cell batteries back up the schedule during outages.

The daily-use story from owners is one of convenience: schedule it and stop worrying. Functionality and build quality are the two most-praised traits, and the portion accuracy gets called out specifically — one owner noted it dispenses about 1/8 cup per delivery. Recording every visit so you know who ate and how much is a common reason people keep it. Be ready for two things: the initial setup, since the phone pairing can be fussy and a few units have refused to hold a connection, and the fact that a brief internet drop pauses the feeder and triggers an alarm you cannot clear remotely. Once it is running, owners describe it as reliable and easy to forget about in the good way.

Two bowls sixteen inches apart and two cameras to watch them — a peace treaty for bickering cats.

Food competition is the quiet reason one cat gets fat and another stays thin, and oneisall attacks it with geometry. Two bowls sit opposite each other with a 16-inch gap between them, creating separate eating space so neither cat has to guard a shared tray. Both are stainless steel, and the 5-liter tank holds 20 cups — enough to feed two cats for up to 10 days. The tank handles mixed kibble, dry food, and air-dried food, so picky eaters have options.

The camera setup is the other half of the pitch. There are two 1080P HD cameras with night vision, angled to focus on the feeding area, with smart event alerts and two-way audio so you can hear and talk to your cats in real time. Clips save automatically to the cloud or a TF card, and the app lets you schedule up to 10 meals a day with portion control and refill notifications. An anti-chew cord protects the power line from a bored feline, and 3 D-cell batteries keep preset schedules running through an outage — though WiFi and app functions switch off in battery mode, and no feeding logs are saved while unplugged.

Owners lean heavily toward quality and ease of use as the reasons they keep it, and the two-cat design earns genuine loyalty: an owner who left for a week described both cats fed well on simultaneous dual dispensing with battery life past 15 days. A pair of kittens separated at opposite ends of the tray settled without territorial squabbles. Watch for the dispensing sound — the kibble hitting the metal dishes is loud enough to startle a nervous cat at first, though you can dampen it by removing the bowls, and the low-food alert only fires after the hopper runs empty and two portions fail, which is later than you might like. Portion sizing also drifts a touch for some units, so weigh a batch once to confirm.

A 2K camera that swivels a full turn to follow your pet across the room.

Sharpest lens in this lineup. The Yuno runs a 2K camera with 360° horizontal and 140° vertical rotation, and it uses AI sensing to track your pet automatically rather than sitting on a fixed spot. So instead of guessing where a cat wandered after eating, the camera pans and follows — no blind spots, and the company is clear that it does not track people. A physical lens-flip disables the camera entirely when you want privacy, which is a more convincing safeguard than a software toggle.

The 5-liter sealed tank uses a silicone seal and desiccant to keep food crisp, and it accepts all kibble types from 3 to 14 mm — freeze-dried, air-dried, and oven-baked all feed through. Five-layer clog protection guards the chute, and the 304 stainless steel bowl detaches for cleaning. On the app side, the feeder tracks eating habits and food levels and generates an AI report to help you manage your pet’s intake. You can schedule daily feeding based on your cat’s or dog’s actual habits, and 20 viewers can share the live feed with friends and family. There is even a built-in laser toy for remote play.

Taste — meaning how well pets accept the food and routine — is the trait owners praise most, with the camera close behind, and the appeal is clear: an owner upgrading from a manual feeder plus a separate camera was surprised by the laser, the tracking, and the remote feed-and-talk all living in one device. The buyer to watch out for is anyone who wants everything included. A number of the advertised features sit behind a paid subscription that is not spelled out up front, and portions run larger than some typical feeders, so read the feature list closely before you commit. Set up on 2.4G or 5G WiFi takes about five minutes in most homes.

Two hoppers means kibble and raw food can live in the same machine, on separate schedules.

This is the pick for a household that feeds two different things. The dual-hopper design holds 5 liters split across two compartments, and you can set a separate feeding plan and schedule for each one through the PETKIT app — so one side drops kibble at breakfast while the other releases something entirely different at dinner. Portion control is precise on each hopper, and the app can be controlled by multiple family members, which suits a home where more than one person handles feeding.

The camera is a 1080P unit with a 140° wide viewing angle and night vision, and the AI component captures activity throughout the day as a pet vlog, with clips you can download and share in a single tap. Video can be saved to secure cloud storage for later viewing, and some services need to be purchased in the app. Two-way audio with a built-in microphone and speaker lets you call your pet and talk in real time, and you can record a voice message up to 20 seconds that plays automatically at mealtime. A side indicator light shows whether the camera is on, and the app lets you set the camera’s operating window and toggle voice recording.

The dual-compartment setup is what owners value most — being able to dispense two foods on different timers is the reason people choose this over a single-hopper machine. Cleanliness and reassembly are the friction points: taking it apart for a deep clean and putting it back together takes more effort than a simple single hopper, and the app interface feels clunky to some. The video subscription is the recurring complaint, since it is priced per unit and adds up if you run more than one. The core feeding performance and the camera draw steady praise, and the stainless bowl and quadruple fresh-lock system round out the build. Four D-cell batteries are noted as not included, so plan for backup power separately.

For the dog who inhales dinner — a slow-feed bowl up front, scheduled portions behind.

Some dogs eat so fast it defeats the purpose of a feeder at all. PETLIBRO answers with a stainless steel slow-feed bowl that, in the company’s words, slows eating by up to 2×, per the manufacturer — the claim is theirs, not a lab result, but the design intent is real: spread the same meal across more time. It sits on a 5-liter sealed tank with a desiccant compartment to keep kibble dry, and the steel bowl is dishwasher safe and detachable.

The camera and control package is complete. A 1080P HD camera with night vision lets you watch in real time through the PETLIBRO app, and feeding moments can be recorded to a micro SD card up to 256GB (not included) or an optional cloud subscription. Two-way audio lets you talk to your dog, or record a 10-second meal call that plays at feeding time. You can schedule up to 10 meals a day with 1 to 50 portions per meal over either 5GHz or 2.4GHz WiFi, and an infrared detection system plus a patented anti-blockage outlet keeps food moving. Battery backup (not included) holds the schedule through outages.

The following here is broad — this is among the most widely reviewed feeders in the group, and owners genuinely trust the scheduled meals and the portion control. The scheduled voice recording is a standout: a dog who sprints to the feeder the moment his owner’s recorded call plays is the kind of story that shows up again and again. The honest caveat is a reliability one. There are reports of the unit failing after a couple of months, and the USB port has been cited as a weak point that can break and knock the feeder off WiFi. Support has been slow for some; others report it improving. Weigh that against the large install base before you buy.

Built-in scales weigh every serving, so you know grams eaten, not just that someone ate.

Most feeders tell you food was dispensed. This one tells you how much was actually eaten. Dual gram-level scales measure every serving and track intake in real time, so you can monitor eating habits with far more accuracy than a portion counter allows. The AI recognition keeps separate feeding records per pet, so in a two-cat home you always know who ate, how much, and when. Dual food chutes and precision dispensing deliver balanced portions to two bowls to head off uneven feeding and food competition.

The vision side is a 1080P HD camera with two-way audio and app notifications wherever you are. You get two feeding modes: scheduled feeding, or Smart Refill Mode that automatically tops up the bowls while staying within each pet’s daily feeding plan. It runs on WiFi for app control, holds 5 liters, and uses a stainless steel bowl. A vacuum-sealed lid keeps food fresh, assembly is straightforward, and the app is easy to navigate. It stands 13.54″L x 13.31″W x 14.96″H and weighs 8.9 pounds, making it one of the heavier, more substantial builds here.

Owners who want granular tracking get exactly that — knowing a shy cat is eating enough because the scale confirms it is the payoff. But this pick demands honesty about the subscription. The AI recognition has been noted to struggle distinguishing two cats in some homes, and the feeder works best with round or oval kibble in the 2 to 18 mm range — heart-shaped food jams. Smart Refill Mode, which stops feeding when the scale was misread, has been reported to go quiet without an app warning. If you want gram-level intake data per pet and are willing to pay for it, this is the tool; if you want simple reliability without a subscription, look at the PETKIT above.
