help PetSafe Automatic Feeder (Basic) FAQ

Does the basic PetSafe automatic feeder need Wi-Fi or a phone app?

The catalog's basic version is described as a timer-only feeder with no Wi-Fi or smartphone setup. PetSafe's 5 Meal model, PFD11-13707, also uses local controls and a digital timer, so the model number should be checked if the listing is unclear.

How many meals can a PetSafe automatic feeder serve?

Capacity depends on the exact PetSafe model rather than the generic Basic name. The PetSafe 5 Meal PFD11-13707 has five one-cup compartments, with one meal available immediately and four meals scheduled later.

Can the PetSafe feeder dispense wet food?

PetSafe's current 5 Meal feeder is specified for dry or semi-moist food and treats. Do not assume that every basic mechanical tray feeder can safely hold wet food, because the food type depends on the manual and tray design.

What powers the PetSafe automatic feeder?

The PetSafe 5 Meal PFD11-13707 uses four D-cell alkaline batteries, which are not included. A different basic model may use another battery type, so check the product label before buying replacements.
