Best Rated Healthy Dog Food
Want to improve the quality and longevity of your dog’s life but not pay human food prices? Freshly cooked human-grade dog food is the answer. Its surprisingly easy (and cost efficent) to give your dog the best.
We take an in-depth look a few of the most popular new health conscience dog foods available today.
1. Pet Plate – From $1.43 per day
2. Nom Nom – $7+ per day
After careful consideration, we found Pet Plate was the freshest & healthiest dog food of the three from $1.43 per day.
Lets look at each option below and why Pet Plate was rated the #1 choice.
# 1 Healthy Vet Grade Pet Food
WHY #1: Pet Plate is a custom dog food delivery service that brings your pup fresh, human-grade food free of by-products and artificial ingredients. All delivered in pre-portioned containers which we loved, it doesn’t keep you guessing about meal size.
WHAT WE LOVED
- Price – Pet Plate is competitively priced at between $1.43-$9 per day which was amazing value
- Recyclable – Containers are recyclable rather than single-use plastic, saving the environmental cost. This container also makes it easier to seal leftovers
- Topper Plan – This saves on cost and provides a happy medium cost-wise.
- Pre-portion packed meal sizes made things extremely convenient
Features: Pet Plate is made using only USDA-approved meats, fruits, and vegetables, and its prep facilities also pass the sniff test with the USDA.
Every batch is tested to ensure safety, and flash freezing makes delivering it to your home without spoiling simple.
The diet is designed by a trained veterinarian who specializes in nutrition, so you don’t have to worry about the soundness of the formula.
Simply enter your pup’s information, and Pet Plate will calculate his dietary needs.

3. Nom Nom
WHAT WE LIKED
The single-meal-sized bags make feeding clean and easy, eliminating the need to scoop and store messy leftovers. Most reviewers liked how much their pups loved the taste.
WHAT WE DIDN’T LIKE
- If we’re honest, there isn’t alot of customization compared with the competition. Some of our other reviewed brands offer far more.
- Also, the price is quite high, especially compared to Pet Plate.
- Finally, fresh food is great but we prefer frozen or dry so as to not take up room in our fridge.
About: Offering prepackaged, single-size meals, Nom Nom sources restaurant-quality ingredients to create fresh food for your pup.
The food is never frozen which made storage harder to be honest. But this meant it wasn’t produced on a mass scale, which meant its freshness was there, but you need to make sure you use it (or you’ll literally lose it!)
No surprise here, again Nom Nom have experts watching over their work. Each Nom Nom formula is designed by a veterinary nutritionist. And again, every formula meets AAFCO standards, and Nom Nom produce the food exclusively at their own facilities.
Price: Obviously this varies by your doggie size, etc. But we found 2 weeks of food was to $89 for Maya or $7 per day.
HOW IT WORKS
Their customized plans are not as long as other customized dog food companies, but they do ask some usual questions like your dog’s breed, weight, and body condition to ensure a proper feeding amount.
If you’re seeking a very specific dog food we don’t recommend this Nom Nom, they don’t get super granular on their recipes.
