Dedicated Pet Professionals

I discovered DogWatch when I owned and operated the Animal House. Owning a Pet Shop had always been my childhood dream. Growing up in both Ohio and Virginia, I spent my youth finding, reading about and caring for every kind of animal I could find. I had the best dog a boy could have. Boots was special and “Lassie like” helped me survive my childhood. Since Boots, I have been blessed with four great dogs: Abby, Casey, and now Roxy and Rosey. I don’t think I have ever met a dog that wasn’t great. If you’re a long time dog person you know what I mean. Read More

Customer Testimonial

Dogwatch is the only thing that keeps our dog on our property! We live on approximately an acre of land and it is logistically impossible to fence in. Even if we did have fences, our dog would surely jump them. She is quite smart and occasionally "tests" her boundaries but the Dogwatch fence keeps her safe and gives us peace of mind.

What is a Hidden Dog Fence?

A hidden fence is an underground dog fence system that uses an electronic signal to keep your dog within a designated area, such as a yard, and away from potential dangers. Watch the video to see how it works!

DogWatch has been making Hidden Dog Fence systems since 1990. Our fences are sold and installed by our network of over 200 independent DogWatch Dealers worldwide.
