Personalized Water Trapper® Pet Placemat

Protect your floors from water damage and keep the area under your pet's feeding station clean with our thirsty Water Trapper mat. Able to absorb up to a gallon of liquid per square foot, these superstrong commercial-grade polypropylene placemats trap water, crumbs, and dirt and are backed with sturdy rubber for traction so bowls and feeders will stay put. And because big dogs make big messes, we also offer a larger size with 65% more surface area. Easy care—just hose off to clean. Made in USA.

darker and smaller,
May 10, 2013
By: luvtoshop209
"this is my third placemat, and they keep getting smaller. The first one I bough 4 or 5 years ago was perfect - perfect size and perfect color. I could easily read my dog's name. The 2nd one for a new puppy was smaller in size (I had wanted matching mats next to each other) but still a good color. This one is only slightly smaller but so dark I can't read the names. Not worth the price since I can't read the names."

The Best!!,
January 7, 2013
By: Southxsowest
from Scottsdale, AZ
"I love this place mat! I recently adopted a second rescue dog from the Humane Society and this is my second mat, It is so nice to have her name on the it so when I have a pet sitter they know where each dog eats. They are easy to keep clean & looks nice and neat and stay in place, it also is very classy to have their name on each mat."

Pet Placemat Saves Floor!,

By: Gingersoap
"This mat has done a great job of protecting my hardwood floors from both water and food. It is nice enough to leave out, but subtle enough not to draw to much attention to its practical use."

"Great product. Washes up easily. I have an English Mastiff that slobbers a lot when eating or drinking. The water trapper doesn't leak through."

"Does exactly as advertised. Purchase with confidence. Be warned when selecting the Charcoal it is hard to see the pets name, blends in too good."

Great mats,
December 28, 2012
By: zsheltiemom
from OK
"This is my second purchase of the water trapper mat. I ordered two several years ago and they were still in good condition but I wanted three to match since I have a third dog. I had all three personalized. The lettering is very clear and the mats never let any water touch the floor. And all my dogs are pretty sloppy eaters. I would definitely recommend this product."

By: TripsMomma
"I have a lab/retriever mix that is a messy drinker and eater too. This mat is perfect both to absorb the water and to catch the food that he flicks out of the bowl. Makes my clean up much easier. All of my dog owning friends are getting one under the tree for Christmas."

"This is the second mat I've bought. The first one I ordered was light brown; this one is green. I like the brown color better because the personalization is more visible--Personalization is hidden in the dark green color. But I love both mats and I recommend this product."

"Just love this personalized dog dish mat! Sending one to each of our kids for their 4 legged companions. The mat is very well made and is such a clean up boon for slobbery dog chow messes. We have them for our guys and thought we should share such a great product."
