System Features
SafeLink®
Our patented SafeLink Digital Technology provides the maximum protection against false activation caused by stray radio signals. SafeLink Digital Technology is less prone to interference than other brands' AM systems, making DogWatch the most secure hidden fence available.
AutoMemory®
Our patented AutoMemory feature automatically adjusts the correction after your pet challenges the boundary. This discourages additional boundary challenges. If your pet challenges the boundary with the receiver set to level 4, 5 or 6, AutoMemory will be initiated. For the next 24 hours, the correction will be equivalent to the next level if the dog attempts to re-enter the signal field. For example, if AutoMemory is triggered with the receiver set at level 4, the correction will be equivalent to level 5 for the next 24 hours. The correction returns to the original setting after 24 hours with no boundary challenges.
TattleTale™
If your pet challenges his boundary, the status light on the receiver double flashes, an indication that you may need to adjust the fence settings. The receiver resets after 24 hours without a boundary challenge. TattleTale is a patented safety feature available exclusively from DogWatch.
Longest Battery Life
All DogWatch Hidden Fence collars have a longer battery life than other brands. The ProFenceX system includes our R10 Receiver Collar, which has a battery life of up to one year. Other brands usually need a new battery every 3-4 months. Fewer batteries are good for your wallet and better for the environment. And, most importantly, safer for your pet!
Receiver Status Light
DogWatch receivers have a unique status light that provides valuable information to help keep your pet safe in your yard. The light also indicates whether the receiver battery is low and whether your pet has recently challenged the hidden fence.
Audible Warning Alert
The DogWatch ProFenceX includes an audible warning signal to alert your dog that they are approaching the boundary. This warning signal helps your pet quickly learn to stop before they reach the boundary wire.
GentleFit™ Contact Posts
The optional GentleFit Contact Posts are easy on your dog’s skin. They are smooth like our standard stainless steel contact posts to minimize friction and have a low profile for a comfortable, Pet-Friendly fit.
High Impact, Waterproof
The DogWatch receiver is tested to withstand the harsh outdoor elements of rain, sleet and snow, as well as rigorous play!
Automatic Shutdown
The DogWatch system is designed to protect your pet from an over-correction in the unlikely event that your dog stands in the signal field and does not quickly exit. The receiver will automatically reset once the dog leaves the signal field.
Lightning Protection
DogWatch Hidden Fences include the very best lightning/surge protection available as a standard feature. External protection directs power surges and lightning away from your home; internal protection suppresses surges coming in through your house wiring.
PowerPak™
Our optional PowerPak keeps your fence working temporarily if you lose power. With a PowerPak, you have added protection to ensure your pet’s safety. Provides up to 8 hours of backup protection.
Loop Monitor
Our Loop Monitor alerts you if there is a break in the boundary wire. This is an invaluable safety feature for underground fences.
Flexible Training Levels
The DogWatch transmitter and receiver offer up to twenty unique options (plus audible only), designed to ensure safe, appropriate containment for all pets. The settings are easy to understand and user adjustable (no service call required).
Proven Training Program
All DogWatch Dealers provide on-site training using our trusted and effective PetFriendly™ training program that includes visual recognition of boundary flags, learning to retreat from the audible warning signal and learning that there is an unpleasant sensation if they cross the boundary.
Flexible, Affordable Containment Areas
Over the river and through the woods? Backyard only . . . but not the pool and flower garden? Create a swimming area in the lake? It can be done. A hidden fence is more flexible and less expensive than a traditional fence. And your dog can’t jump over, dig under or chew through a hidden fence!
Works for Cats (and More!)
All DogWatch products are effective for cats, too! Create an invisible boundary that keeps your cat in your yard and out of the kids' sandbox. You can also create an indoor cat fence to keep kitty off the kitchen counter, away from your new sofa and out of the baby's room. And you can use the system for cat containment and dog containment at the same time! Also works for other pets including pigs, goats, sheep and more! Read more.
Lifetime Equipment Warranty
Our hidden fence products are built to last. We offer a no-nonsense Lifetime Limited Warranty on our ProFenceX containment system - including dog chews!

Troy is fantastic. He came in and assisted with the set up. A full tutorial for me and family. Afterwards, he has taken my calls on stupid questions whenever they come up (a battery needed to get changed out today on a Sunday for instance, and Troy texted me back right away). Also the product is tip top. Highly recommended!Posted on Google
Kevin HirshAugust 21, 2026Troy and team were great! Fantastic service! We've used Dog Watch for over 25 years! The products work amazingly and the customer service is exceptional!Posted on Google
Josie HopkinsMay 22, 2026i've had a dog for the last six years who is all "hound" And luckily, the DogWatch vibrate E collar has saved her life more than once. She finds no discomfort from it because she knows that when she comes back to me she gets positive rewards in the form of treats. Due to the fact that she is a hound, it's a natural instinct for her to to chase the squirrels and the deer, etc. The collar is a way to keep her safe and happy! Troy, who is one of the managers of the company has always been there for me and my dog Poppy for any questions I've ever had or for any needs that I've had in dealing with the DogWatch collar+1Posted on Google
Michelle M.August 16, 2025Hershey is our 4-year-old dog, and for the first two years he never hopped our fence. But in the past two years it became completely out of control — he would leap over our 5 ft redwood storybook fence like it was nothing. As a mom of three young kids, constantly chasing him down and finding him was exhausting. We tried so many solutions — even hiring a specialized dog trainer. Other barrier solutions made our yard look like a prison yard, and other invisible fence companies couldn’t figure out the closed-loop circuit, charged twice as much (or more). A new redwood fence…quoted tens of thousands of dollars. Then Troy came. He was on time, professional, and figured out what others said couldn’t be done. The training was thorough and I couldn’t believe how quickly we got results. Hershey, who had been anxious and obsessed with escape, suddenly became calm, relaxed, and more connected with the family. Now he happily sunbathes, runs free, and even lounges peacefully with our chickens — without that wild, frantic look in his eyes. Troy is efficient, knowledgeable, and always available for questions. If you’re struggling with an escape artist dog, Troy is the one to call. We couldn’t be happier.+0Posted on Google
Rashmi BachrachJuly 18, 2025Troy is just the best. Easy to work with, helpful in problem solving, super knowledge, cares about the dogs and is just overall a genuinely good human. So happy we made the decision to invest in an invisible fence and work with the company.Posted on Google

Elizabeth HolmesJuly 4, 2024Troy and his team are fantastic. Clear about the process, professional at all times, and super friendly. He worked through some installation issues (on our end), always with a smile. He trained Chase and me! His prices were fair. The process was quick. He's a delight....and he brings you a gift at the end of the process. I wouldn't use anyone else!!+0Posted on Google
Leia Kelly VetterJune 27, 2024This really solved our problem of cats getting out! Troy was so great during the installation and adjustments as we started using it. He was very helpful and responsive and I definitely could not have done it without him!Posted on Google
E WJune 13, 2024Troy is a very competent and skilled person and truly enjoys his job and dogs. He installed a pretty significant system on our property years ago, and it has hardly needed repairs (typically due to chewing vermin or tree roots). He has been with me now for almost nine years and several new dogs (we have four total now). He is a credit to his industry!Posted on Google

Steve HennAugust 8, 2023We live in a semi-rural hilly woodsy area. We had a young pup who was visiting our neighbors house. He’d get into food their and play with their dogs and was getting all sorts of positive feedback for running off. Troy worked with us to fence the premiere of our home in a challenging environment and supply us with other tools to keep our young dog under control. It wasn’t cheap - but it worked and Troy was great.

"The Dog Watch system is the only thing that would keep in our tough German Shepherds but is gentle enough for our 17 lbs. Cocker Spaniel. As a veterinarian I would never recommend any other type of containment system other than DogWatch!"

You Asked, We Answered
A hidden fence is an underground pet fencing system that uses a radio signal to keep your dog in a designated containment area, such as a yard; or out of an area, such as a swimming pool, patio, or garden. Hidden fences can also be used to create indoor pet fences that work inside your home to keep your pet off a couch, out of a room or away from a kitchen counter.
Hidden fences are often mistakenly referred to generically as “invisible fences”. Invisible Fence® is a brand name and Registered Trademark of the Invisible Fence Company.
Hidden fences are created by burying a ‘boundary wire’ a few inches underground around your property. The buried wire carries a harmless, low level radio signal from a transmitter installed in your house or garage. Your pet wears a lightweight, waterproof receiver collar that recognizes the radio signal. As your pet approaches the buried wire, the receiver collar emits a warning signal (audible or vibration). If your pet travels further, he will receive a mild but safe stimulation (also called a “correction”) from the receiver collar. Through a training program, your pet learns to recognize his fence boundaries and learns to stop at the warning signal. Although there are differences in some of the product features, this is how all hidden fences work (DogWatch®, Invisible Fence® and other radio fence brands.)
With an indoor system, the hidden wire runs around your couch, under the lip of the counter, around the trash or across a doorway or wherever you need to create either a containment area or an “off-limits” area. We also have wireless indoor units that do not require placement of a boundary wire. Give us a call to discuss your options.
Training is an important part of the process. After we install the hidden fence, we work with you to train your pet. The training includes teaching your pet to recognize the containment area boundaries through a combination of voice commands, audible warning signals from the receiver collar and visual flags that are set in the yard where the pet hears the warning alert. With training, the dog remembers the placement of the flags and associates the flags with the warning signal. As your pet learns, the flags are slowly taken away. Your pet also learns that if he continues beyond the flags and warning alert, he will receive a mild correction (a stimulation from the collar). After training, most dogs do not cross the hidden boundary; they usually stop before the warning signal to avoid the correction.
We will initiate the training and provide instructions and support so you can complete and reinforce the training. After the initial training, your dog goes through a training session with you for a few minutes each day for about two weeks. We will develop a plan to meet the specific training needs of your pet(s).
Our DogWatch Hidden Fences systems include PetFriendly™ training from one of our experienced DogWatch Dealers. As a result, dogs using our hidden fences rarely leave the containment area. In the rare instance that a pet does leave the containment area, the ProFenceX includes our WelcomeHome™ technology. The WelcomeHome™ technology allows a pet to return to their yard without a correction.
No. The “stimulation” from the collar is unpleasant, but it will not “burn” or injure your pet. It is a sensation similar to the static shock you receive after walking across a carpet in your socks. It is uncomfortable, but it does not harm you.
The cost for a DogWatch Hidden Fence is almost always much less than traditional fencing. The cost varies based on which system is right for you, the number of pets, the size of the property, how many sidewalk and driveway cuts, if you want internal “garden loops”, etc. Contact us for a free consultation and an estimate for your property.
In addition to costing less than traditional fences, hidden fences provide more flexibility and more secure containment than traditional fences. For example, you can contain your dog in your yard, but keep him out of a pool area, garden or driveway gate. Plus, your dog cannot jump over, chew through or dig under a hidden fence. And hidden fences don’t need to be painted and don’t deteriorate like traditional fences.
There usually isn’t much difference in the cost of a DogWatch® fence and other Dealer-installed brands (such as Invisible Fence®.) Retail brands may seem to cost less than the Dealer-installed brands, but they do not include installation (which can be challenging), training (which is very important), ongoing support or a good Warranty program. Also, Dealer-installed products tend to be better quality than retail brands.
