I bought UPSKY Adjustable Elevated Dog Bowls as part of my camper van equipment.

Where it fits my build
My Day 87 plan put the body openings ahead of the aluminum framing, flooring and wall panels. I specifically included the shower drain and the openings for three water tanks in that order of work.
I removed cargo tie-down hardware to leave mounting points for the extrusion framing, and removed door trim for the later insulation and paneling. SketchUp helped me plan how those separate jobs would fit together.

My build notes
The useful part of this diary entry is the sequence. I wanted to finish the drilling while the interior metal was bare, so later work would not mean opening finished surfaces again.
The photographs show my preceding floor-preparation session. Sweeping, washing and removing residue created the starting point for the interior work I described next.
I planned the openings and mounting access before enclosing the interior.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
The UPSKY water bowl focuses on a single drinking station. The Amazon Basics pair uses separate stainless-steel dishes, giving a simpler floor-level arrangement than the adjustable stand.
UPSKY Pet Water Bowl
This UPSKY bowl uses a floating insert above its water reservoir. Its floor-level format focuses on drinking water rather than combining food and water in an elevated stand.
This Amazon Basics pack contains two stainless-steel food or water bowls. Their separate floor-level format offers an alternative to an elevated feeding stand.
