What Our Customers Say
Posted on Maryrose LombardoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience with Mike at Dog Watch. Explaining the whole process, installation was easy and non disruptive and the training was great. It’s also comforting to know Mike is available for any questions or issues going forward. So far so good and our pup Benny is doing great learning his new space.Posted on Hamburg Swim ClubTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Awesome experience with Mike! He is very punctual and accommodating. We had a tricky spot in our backyard and he was able to get the fence through with no issues. We needed an additional collar and he was able to bring it out to us the very next day. Highly recommend, great product and great service!Posted on Caitlin Irish-BakerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an excellent experience with DogWatch. Our puppy learned quickly and the service was exceptional. We would highly recommend DogWatch to anyone with a new puppy!Posted on Julie RosinskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just had a great experience with Mike at DogWatch. He helped us upgrade our old underground fence system and helped train our dog on the new system. Mike was professional, friendly, on time to all of our scheduled appointments. Highly recommend!Posted on EJ WeekeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have a high drive bird dog that had escaped and struggled to get her to stay within our boundaries. Once our dogwatch fence was installed we have a different dog. She is calmer, happier, and our stress levels working about her running off are gone. Install was quick, professional, and the pricing was great. Highly recommendPosted on Paige WhiteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dogwatch is great!

Great service and works amazing with our dog.Posted on Heather BrzezinskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mike was great! I called him because our device was beeping which meant we had a break in the line, and he came right over and fixed it! I really appreciated that!!Posted on David GeorgeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our Dogwatch system has been a great addition to our home, and when service has been needed for new collars or receivers, Mike has been great. If you have dogs that like to run, you need a Dog Watch system.

You Asked, We Answered
A ‘cat fence’ is the same DogWatch Hidden Fence that is used for dogs. We just call it a cat fence when we are using it for cats! Actually, the hidden fence can be used for both cats and dogs at the same time. The hidden fence uses an electronic FM radio signal to keep your pet in a designated containment area, such as a yard or specific areas in your house; or away from an area, such as the kitchen counters, the couch or favorite ‘scratching post’ chair, the swimming pool or garden. You can use the same collar with our indoor cat fence and our outdoor hidden fence.
For outdoor fences, a hidden wire, buried underground, carries the harmless, low level FM radio signal around the containment area. Your pet wears a receiver on a collar that picks up the radio signal and emits a mild stimulation (also called a correction) if it gets too close to the boundary. Using visual flags and an audible signal, your pet is trained to recognize where the boundary is. After training, it is unusual for pets to receive the correction as they know to avoid the boundary area. With consistent boundaries and good training, pets can play happily knowing where they should and shouldn’t go.
With our indoor cat fence, the transmitter emits the radio signal directly from the portable transmitter to create an “off-limits” area up to 10 feet in diameter. Or it can be used with a wire that you can hide around your couch or other containment area to create an indoor “fence”. All of our other Indoor Pet Fences can also be used with our cat fence collar.
Yes. We have successfully trained many cats to use indoor and outdoor hidden fences. Because cats can climb trees (etc.), your DogWatch Dealer will work with you to establish an appropriate plan for your outdoor fence. The fence configuration may need to be a little different than a fence that is only for dogs. Training a cat to use the fence is also a little different than training a dog to use the fence. Contact us for more information.
Instructions are available here for training your cat to the indoor fence. If your local DogWatch Dealer is installing your cat fence or indoor fence, training assistance is usually included. Cats learn the containment area through visual cues (flags) and audible warning signals from the receiver collar. For outdoor cats, training is generally done indoors before introducing the cat to the outdoor system.

Yes. There is no limit to the number of cats or dogs (or both!) our hidden pet fencing can protect at one time.
