    I’m so grateful for Ed and Dogwatch. After adopting a highly active pup with some anxiety behaviors and zero leash skills, this fence has proven to be a godsend. Ed thoughtfully designed the layout for maximum fun and safety. He trained with us so that Kismet knows his boundaries and is now able to explore independently. I love the freedom the fence has given both of us and we now enjoy relaxed walks and great games of fetch. Kismet has gained confidence and his behavior has improved tremendously. He’s also much more relaxed inside, which makes cuddle time even better. I highly recommended both Dogwatch Fence and Ed for a great product and excellent customer service from someone who is not only knowledgeable, but genuinely cares about the success of your pup.

    I have a Pyrenees who kept breaking through chain link fence. Nothing worked. I had a dog watch invisible fence laid at the fence boundary. They also did training with my dog and I. It works perfectly!

    We’ve been with Top Dog Pet Fence for over 15 years and with two dogs. Their assistance when getting started training your pups and along the way to ensure the dogs are progressing satisfactorily is what allows dogs to live so successfully within a hidden fence. Their customer service has been “Top Dog” when a tree branch randomly sliced through the line and when in need of replacement batteries if you don’t sign up for authorship, which is recommended for forgetful folks like me. I’d recommend Top Dog Pet Fence without hesitation if you’re considering a hidden fence for your furry friend. You will not be disappointed! 😊

    Ed and Top Dog are one of the best contractors that we have ever worked with. He installed our dog fence and helped us train our dog and that was all great. What stands out is his responsiveness since then when we’ve needed the fence wire repaired or had a question or concern. We cannot recommend Ed more highly. Simply the best!

    I have used Dogwatch for many years.Ed helped train my Lab and now I have a very active mini aussie puppy ( 6 MO.) Ed brought her a collar and trained us both on our existing system. She caught on quickly as I followed his advice. I’m very confident she will not exit The fence area. Highly recommend!

    What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

    1. Verify Trade License
      HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
    2. Verify Insurance
      As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
    3. Verification of State Business Filings
      For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
    4. Criminal Records Search
      HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
    5. Sex Offender Search
      We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
    6. Bankruptcy Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
    7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
    8. Liens Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
    9. Identity Verification (SSN)
