After they walk away
Your pet’s food shouldn’t sit exposed for hours.
Ordinary bowls leave wet food exposed after mealtime.
Pests find it
Contamination gets in
Odour spreads
Freshness drops
Money gets wasted
Pests and disease risk
Flies move from bins, drains and litter areas straight onto exposed food.
Contamination risk
Dust, fur, insects and household mess get a clear path into the bowl.
Money wasted
Wet food dries out, loses freshness and gets scraped into the bin.
That’s the gap HAVN Node was built for.

Comparison
HAVN Node vs. open bowls
Designed to do what a normal bowl can’t — keep food covered between meals.
Open bowl
Food stays exposed.
Exposed between meals
Food dries out and loses freshness, costing you money
Odour lingers in your home
Exposed to hair, dust and insects
HAVN Node
Food stays covered.
Seals between meals
Keeps food fresher for longer, saving you money
Contains lingering food odours
Keeps food covered from everyday contaminants
Normal bowls stay open. HAVN Node opens only when it’s needed.
Different job. Different bowl.
Not an auto-feeder.
Auto-feeders control when food comes out. HAVN Node protects food after your pet walks away.
Food left exposed
Covered between visits
Slide to compare exposed food with the job HAVN Node is built for.
01
Timing is not the whole problem.
Scheduled feeding can be useful, but it does not stop food sitting open once it has been served.
02
Exposure is what happens after.
Smell, drying, flies, dust and wasted food all start once the bowl is left open between visits.
03
HAVN Node is built for grazers.
It opens for your pet, then seals when they leave — keeping food covered until they come back.
The category reset
Auto-feeders solve timing. HAVN Node solves exposure.
Most auto-feeders are built around schedules, portions and timers. HAVN Node is different. It is made for pets who graze, walk away, come back later, or leave food sitting open between visits.
Dispense food on a schedule.
Opens when your pet approaches.
Food can still sit exposed after dispensing.
Seals food between visits.
Focus on portion timing.
Focuses on freshness, smell and exposure.
Often need apps, timers or setup.
No apps. No schedules. Just automatic access.
If food sits in the bowl between meals, timing is not the problem. Exposure is.

Bianca - Vet Nurse and Creator
As a vet nurse I needed this!!! I feel so comfortable knowing my border collies food is protected from flies and parasites.
Dog and Cat owner
I was so sick of flies and ants on archies food, so me and the missus frigging love this thing and archie does too.
Archie's Dad
I was blown away with just how much of a change it made in my living room. I have 3 dogs and two Havn nodes have totally eliminated that pet food smell in my house. Love it!
i honestly could NOT go back to snowflakes old bowl... and she probably wouldn't let me.
5 stars!
Snowflake's Mum
I was asked to test the node for 3 weeks in Jan 2026 and honestly we have been using it ever since, so much better than a normal bowl, way less smells. 1 bowl does perfect with my 2 cats.
Owner of 2 cats.
Arthur is legit the fussiest thing on earth, he eats walks away, eats walks away and when his kibble dries out he just ignores it. This device is a game changer for us <3

Alice - Early tester
Michis wet food kept drying up, and i ended up tossing it often.. the node is saving us money every week and my dog uses it too :)
Eva - Early tester
I was sent this product to test and honestly , they nailed it, love how seamlessly it fits our small apartment and best part NO MORE FLIES.
It took us a few days to get her used to it, but now she's loving her node. and we love not having pet food smell in the apartment
Initially I was hired as a creator to film content with the HAVN Node so I thought "lets see." I am OBSSESSED with this device! Specks approves!
Speck's Mum
full disclosure i was asked to test this product but i genuinely want to thank them for solving my biggest pet peeve. Flies on coco's lyka was unsolvable. we tried fans, vinegar bags near the bowl, nothing worked. This thing is genius.

Protect your pet's food
Sealed between meals.
Node stays closed when your pet isn’t eating, helping protect food from parasites, hair and dust between visits.
Designed for the Home
Contains pet food smell.
Especially with wet/raw food, leaving meals exposed can affect the whole room. HAVN Node removes this issue.
Made to Waste Less
Waste less food. Save more money.
Food is kept fresh in the node, and your fussy pets know it.
Common questions
Questions before switching bowls?
Simple answers about how HAVN Node works, what it suits, and what to expect at home.
Not an auto-feeder
Is HAVN Node an automatic feeder?
No. It does not dispense food or run on schedules. HAVN Node opens when your pet approaches and closes when they leave.
Wet and dry food
Does it work with wet and dry food?
Yes. HAVN Node is designed for both wet and dry food. Your pet's food should always be covered. Especially where smell, drying out, flies and waste are involved.
Pet adjustment
Will my pet be scared of it?
Most pets adjust straight away. Others need a little time. The lid movement is smooth and simple, so most pets can learn it naturally. If you have a more fearful pet, place the Node near their usual food bowl, and encourage them using their favorite treats! Let them explore it fully for a few days.
Sensor movement
Does it close while they eat?
No. The HAVN Node is designed to stay open while your pet is nearby, then close automatically after they walk away, keeping their food protected.
Quiet everyday use
Is it noisy?
No loud dispensing, no grinding, no scheduled clunking. HAVN Node is designed to quietly open and close during everyday feeding.
Easy cleaning
Is it easy to clean?
Yes. Very. The bowl insert is removable, so you can clean it like a regular pet bowl. Lift out, spray, wipe, rinse, and pop back in. Just avoid soaking the electronic base. To clean the base you can simply wipe it with a damp cloth.

The practical details
Still have questions?
The details worth knowing before you bring HAVN Node home.
What problem does HAVN Node actually solve?
Normal pet bowls, and auto feeder bowls stay open all day. Food is exposed to air, flies, odours, dust and whatever else is floating around your home.
HAVN Node helps protect food between meals by keeping it covered when your pet is not eating.
This protection reduces your pet's exposure to serious things such as pathogens from parasite-carrying insects, to simple annoyances like hair in their food or dried out raw/wet food.
Does it really save me money?
Fussy pets and dried out wet food can cost owners hundreds of dollars per year in wastage.
Especially if your pet tends to graze, walk away, or come back to their food later.
With a normal bowl, wet food can dry out, smell stronger, attract flies, or become less appealing before your pet finishes it.
The Node won’t magically cut your food bill in half but keeping wet food fresher for longer, keeps more money in your pocket.
Is it easy to set up?
Plug in device or insert AA batteries, and long press the 'on' button. The device is now set up.
Is it good for multi-pet homes?
Yes. Multiple pets can use HAVN Node if they’re comfortable sharing a feeding area. For strict diets or food guarding, separate bowls are best.
Is this just for the owner, or does it help the pet too?
It helps both. For owners, it means less exposed food, less smell, and less waste. For pets, it means food is kept covered between meals meaning it isn't exposed to contamination such as hair, dust and parasite carrying insects such as flies.
Will it keep food fresh forever?
No, and no bowl should claim that.
HAVN Node ensures food is covered and unexposed between meals, which prolongs freshness and most importantly protects your pet throughout the day. It does not replace safe food handling, refrigeration, or common sense with wet food.
Does HAVN Node stop flies completely?
HAVN Node eliminates exposure by keeping food covered when your pet walks away. No more pesky flies leaving eggs and potential disease in your pet's food.
Will my pet be scared of it?
Most pets adjust straight away. Others need a little time. The lid movement is smooth and simple, so most pets can learn it naturally. If you have a more fearful pet, place the Node near their usual food bowl, and encourage them using their favourite treats and just let them explore it fully for a few days.
How do I clean it?
Remove the bowl insert and clean it regularly like you would a normal pet bowl. Spray, wipe, rinse, and dry.
Avoid soaking the electronic base. Wipe the outer unit with a damp cloth when needed.
Does it need to be plugged in?
HAVN Node can be powered by USB-C or batteries.
That gives you flexibility depending on where you want to place it in your home.
Does it close on my pet while they are eating?
HAVN Node is designed to open while your pet is nearby and close after they leave. It does not close on your pet.
What size pets is it suitable for?
HAVN Node is best suited for cats and small to medium dogs.
For very large breeds, the bowl may still work, but the feeding position and bowl size may not be ideal.
What if something goes wrong?
HAVN Node is covered by our warranty.
If your unit arrives faulty or something is not right, contact HAVN Labs and we will help sort it properly.
