Not sure about your bowl?Bowl + Splash Guard Set · $32.99Get the bowl and guard, matched to fit
Details
Not sure it'll fit? Measure straight across the top opening of your pet's bowl, where the inside walls meet the rim. Seven to nine inches and you're set. If you'd rather not measure, or your bowl is an unusual shape, the Bowl + Splash Guard Set arrives already matched, so the fit is guaranteed.
The guard is one piece of food-grade, BPA-free silicone. Flex it, seat it inside the rim, press the edge down. The raised wall catches food and water on the way out and drops it back into the bowl. It works on stainless steel, ceramic and plastic bowls, for food and water alike.
If the bowl sits against a wall, the guard also protects paint and baseboards: water splashed over the rim is most of what reaches the wall. More on protecting the wall behind the bowl.
When it needs cleaning, lift it out and put it on the top rack of the dishwasher. It's reusable, so there's nothing to replace.
Who it's for

Why this exists
MessMate is named for Spud, the rescue dog we adopted at nine, who ate like a tornado and was worth every mop. A portion of every sale goes to rescue organizations helping dogs who are still waiting.
What owners say
Purrfect and took care of splashing water from 3 cats.
I like the color and fit
Item quality is great and customer service was great as well. Highly recommend!
This fixed the mess my dog makes every time he eats. Food stays in the bowl and the floor stays clean.
My dog splashes water everywhere when drinking, and this helped more than I expected. The guard keeps most of the water inside the bowl and the floor stays cleaner after meals.
I bought this because my cat throws food out of the bowl every day. After adding the guard, the food stays inside much more and I don't have to sweep the floor all the time.
Why pet parents switch to MessMate
