Silicone Pet Feeding Mat 23x15 in Green - Waterproof Raised Edge

In this review of the 23x15 in silicone feeding mat the bottom line is clear: this mat is for pet owners who want a low-maintenance way to protect floors from food and water. The single biggest reason to buy is its 1/8-in raised edge combined with fully waterproof, food-grade silicone construction, which keeps spills contained and cleans up easily. The reviewer found it especially useful for medium-size dog bowls and cat fountains, and notes the award recognition as a helpful signal of thoughtful design.

Key Features

• 100 percent waterproof: The silicone surface prevents liquid from seeping through to floors so spills stay on top of the mat.
• Raised edge containment: A 1/8-in raised border captures runoff from sloppy drinkers and prevents puddles from escaping the mat.
• Slip resistant top: Raised dots on the topside help keep bowls in place and reduce food scatter during meals.
• Dishwasher safe silicone: Made from BPA free, food grade silicone that cleans in the dishwasher or with a quick rinse for fast turnaround.
• Versatile sizing: At 23x15 in the mat fits most medium bowls, water dishes, and small raised feeders without crowding the floor area.
• Award recognition: Winner of the 2025 Pet Innovation Award, which highlights its practical design focus.

Who It's For

This mat suits households with dogs or cats that drip water, scatter kibble, or use a small fountain; the waterproof construction and raised edge are especially helpful on wood or tile floors where moisture damage is a concern. It also works well for owners who prefer a mat that cleans in the dishwasher and dries quickly.

Owners of very large breeds or those needing a mat for multiple big bowls should look at larger sizes, and those who expect heavy chewing of the mat itself should consider a heavier-duty mat since a few customers reported tearing under extreme wear.

Pros & Cons
