A feeding bowl assembly for a pet. The feeding bowl assembly has a housing, wherein an internal bowl structure is formed within the housing. The internal bowl structure has an open rim along its top. A lid is provided that is sized to cover the internal bowl structure over the open rim. A storage compartment is disposed within the housing. The storage compartment is located above the bottom of the housing and below the internal bowl structure. The storage compartment is accessible through an access opening in the housing. Both the storage compartment and the access opening are sized to receive the lid. The lid can therefore be stored within the bowl assembly when the lid is not in use. While being stored, the lid is protected from the contents of the bowl and anything that might spill out of the bowl.
