I have two 2qt pails that I rotate in the dishwasher daily....otherwise it gets stinky/slimy if I just refill.
We have an outside livestock water dish that I dump/refill daily but don't always scrub, I use the powerful spray from the hose to clean it.

Um - Not frequently enough, but I really do wash it sometimes. LOL!

Every day when I do dishes. I also clean their food bowls and crates nightly after their meals. They eat raw.

chance has autoimmune issues, so his dishes get washed every day. Have always washed my pets dishes every day. I don't want to eat out of dirty dishes, so I give my pets the same consideration. LOL Just my own preference.

Every night, I just do them with our dishes. Dog food bowls (having problems with recall....just accidently drop a stainless steel food bowl, works everytime!) and the water bowl.

Mainly because the poor ancient cat doesn't care for dog spit....
