Pet tech deals [September 18, 2024]

The best pet tech deals at Amazon as of Sept. 18:

I have two beagles, and they’re my world. I’m always looking for stuff they do and don’t need (it’s a shame we can’t claim our pets as dependents), so I’m pretty well-versed in pet tech.

This week, I found deals on automatic feeders, water fountains, and de-shedding tools that are actually worth adding to your cart. Save up to 50% off:

Best automatic feeder deal

Why we like it

If you’re gone for long hours during the day or have a fur baby with special dietary needs, an automatic feeder could make your job as a pet parent a little easier.

The Voluas Automatic Pet Feeder is an affordable auto feeder ($38.39 at Amazon) listed for cats and dogs. It features a 10-second voice recorder so you can call your pet to meal time, and has a built-in desiccant to keep kibble fresh.

While my beagles would probably try to tear this thing apart, it might be a good option for cats or smaller dogs like Jack Russells or Dachshunds. Or, you know, a dog that behaves.

Best water dispenser deal

Why we like it

Okay, this isn’t a fancy water fountain (you can see deals on those below), but it is a functional gravity-fed water dispenser that’ll keep your pet hydrated throughout the day. I spend what seems like half the day refilling my dogs’ water bowls, so an auto dispenser is a total time-saver.

The RIZZARI Automatic Pet Waterer comes in multiple sizes with or without a filter. At just $17.99 for the 3 liter version (with filter), it’s an affordable and easy way to make sure your pets always have access to fresh water. It’s also heavy enough that they can’t tip it over.

Note that you will need to replace the filter every so often. Because this thing has multiple nooks and crannies, you’ll also need to clean it thoroughly to prevent bacterial growth or algae buildup.

Best de-shedding tool deal

Why we like it

If you have a floof, your floor has probably seen better days. My girls are short-haired and still get hair everywhere — in the bed, on the couch, in my food (somehow??). With a pet grooming rake, like the Maxpower Planet Pet Grooming Rake, you can cut down on cleanup time and reduce hairballs.

This dual-sided tool is designed to demat and de-shed dogs and cats with long coats. (It’s not for short-haired animals.) It has 17 teeth for de-shedding and nine teeth for de-matting.
