Overview

The PETLIBRO Granary Smart Camera Feeder combines an automatic feeder with a pet camera. You set a meal schedule in the app, the feeder dispenses dry kibble into a stainless steel bowl, and the camera lets you watch your pet eat, or check that the food came out at all. That second part is the real selling point: with a standard feeder, you only know a meal dropped because the app says so.

The model we link (PLAF203) is the 5 L single-bowl version, sold under the same ASIN on Amazon.ca and Amazon.com. PETLIBRO also sells it on its Canadian site. Night vision and a 145-degree lens cover the bowl area well enough to see who is eating after dark.

Stainless steel bowl
Video saves to an SD card or to PETLIBRO’s cloud

Who it suits (and who should skip it)

It fits owners who are out for long workdays or travel overnight and want feeding and a check-in camera in one device. It is also handy for pets on a set diet, where you want to confirm meals are eaten rather than just dispensed. Dual-band Wi-Fi is unusual among feeders and makes setup easier on modern mesh routers. The stainless bowl is easy to wash between refills. If your cat eats too quickly and brings food back up, scheduled smaller meals can help; our article on why your cat is throwing up covers when to see a vet.

Skip it if you feed wet food or very large or irregular kibble, as it handles dry pieces between 2 and 15 mm only. In a two-pet home, one bowl means you cannot control who eats what. Follow your food’s label and your vet’s advice on portion sizes.

Costs to know about

Live view works without a plan. To keep recorded video history, you need either an SD card or one of PETLIBRO’s optional Video Cloud plans, which come in 7-day and 30-day history tiers. Plan pricing on the pages we read was in US dollars; check the Canadian price in the app. Keep D batteries in the backup compartment. PETLIBRO lists a 24-month warranty.

How it compares

The PetSafe Smart Feed holds far more food (24 cups) and suits large dogs, but has no camera. If you mainly want to see and talk to your pet, the Furbo 360 rotates a full 360 degrees and tosses snacks, though it does not feed meals. See all six picks in our smart pet tech guide.

Frequently asked questions

Does the PETLIBRO Granary camera feeder need a subscription?

No. Feeding schedules, live view and two-way audio work without a plan. If you want recorded video history in the cloud, PETLIBRO sells optional Video Cloud plans with 7-day or 30-day history. Alternatively, you can insert an SD card to save video locally.

Can the Granary feeder dispense wet food?

No. It is designed for dry kibble between 2 and 15 mm in diameter. Very large, flat or irregular pieces may not dispense reliably. If your pet eats wet food, you will need a different type of feeder with chilled or sealed compartments.

What happens to the Granary in a power cut?

With three D batteries installed, the feeder keeps dispensing meals on its schedule. Wi-Fi and the camera switch off while it runs on battery, so you cannot watch or adjust remotely until power returns. Replace the batteries periodically so the backup is ready when needed.

Is the Granary camera feeder sold in Canada?

Yes. The same ASIN, B0B5ZGGWBQ, is listed on Amazon.ca and Amazon.com, and PETLIBRO sells this model on its Canadian website. Cloud plan prices we found were in US dollars, so check pricing in the app before you subscribe.
