Spring is officially here! 🌷 The beginning of a new season is the perfect time for your annual Hidden Fence Checkup reminder. Here are some things you can do to ensure your hidden fence is ready for Spring! 🐾

👉 Check driveway and walkway cut to ensure they are sealed and that no wires are exposed.
👉 If you have a yard clean-up or aeration scheduled, be sure to alert anyone working on the lawn to the location of the hidden fence to avoid any accidental wire breaks caused by their equipment.
👉 Check the status light on your dog’s collar to make sure it is blinking green. If it is blinking red, it is time to replace the battery.

Give us a call with any questions or to schedule a check-up!

Our Story

We are Tom and Kristin Schmidt. We became DogWatch customers in 1998. We loved the product so much that in 2003 we bought the DogWatch dealership in Atlanta, Georgia. Shortly after we bought the dealerships in southwest GA, southeast Alabama and the panhandle of Florida. In 2016 we bought the DogWatch dealership in south west Florida and are happy to say it is now our year round home. Over the years we have sold more than 6,500 DogWatch systems and have trained more than 16,000 dogs. Our experience and expertise can not be matched. Tom is a hands-on owner, who cares about customer service, meeting his clients needs and, most importantly, can't wait to meet your dog. Our son Andrew is now also part of the family business. We proudly service Charlotte, Collier, Lee and Monroe counties.

At our house we have both purebred and rescue dogs, big and small, old and young. We love working with animals In any capacity, whether it's volunteering at a shelter, fostering a dog until their forever family comes along or helping a client with a new fence. We chose DogWatch because they have a superior product offering, FM SafeLink design, 2 year battery life (vs.the 3 to 4 month battery life of competitors) and a user friendly transmitter/receiver that customers can adjust without needing a service call.

We hope to have the opportunity to meet you and help keep your pet safe.
