My Journey with DogWatch

DogWatch has been part of my life for more than two decades — first as a solution I trusted for my own dogs, and eventually as the foundation of a business built on care, reliability, and long-term relationships. What started as a simple need to keep my dogs safe grew into a commitment to helping other families enjoy the same peace of mind, right here in our local community.

From Customer to Proud Business Owner

Early Years with DogWatch

In 2001, I began using the DogWatch® Hidden Fence to contain my German Shepherds. After three trouble-free years, I found it to be a solid and dependable solution for my dogs. Around the same time, my youngest son, Jeremy, started kindergarten, and suddenly the house was a lot quieter — and I had more time on my hands than I knew what to do with. In late September 2004, when the dealership opportunity arose, I decided to become part of the DogWatch team. From those early days forward, the business steadily grew with the support of many loyal and gracious customers.

In the early years, I handled everything myself — installations, training, service, and support — simply because that’s what the business required at the time. As the customer base grew, Justin’s brother Aaron joined me in 2005 and worked alongside me for nine years, helping the business take its next steps forward. After Aaron moved on, Justin came on board and has been with me for the past decade, faithfully tackling challenging terrain, complex installs, unpredictable weather, and the real-world issues that come with hands-on work. His reliability, grit, and problem-solving mindset have made him an indispensable part of this business.

In 2020, on my birthday, my son Jeremy expressed interest in joining the business, bringing new energy and a fresh perspective. Working together as family has added a new dimension to what we do, blending experience with enthusiasm and continuity for the future. Today, we’re more than coworkers — we’re a close-knit team united by a shared love for dogs and a commitment to doing things the right way. Even as the business has grown, we’ve remained directly involved in every installation, training, and long-term support visit — no call centers, no subcontractors, and no shortcuts.

Building a Legacy

For the past two decades, our journey has been shaped by steady growth, constant learning, and countless meaningful moments shared with our customers. The relationships we build — not just with the families we serve, but with their pets as well — are what make the work truly rewarding. Every challenge has reinforced our commitment to doing things the right way, and as we look ahead, we remain focused on providing dependable service, long-term support, and genuine peace of mind for our community.

DogWatch® was the catalyst for everything that followed. From the beginning, the system’s reliability, thoughtful engineering, and commitment to quality set it apart in the pet containment industry. Knowing my own German Shepherds could roam safely without wandering off was a turning point, and it’s the same confidence we strive to give every customer we work with today.

Expanding the Business

When I took over the dealership in 2004, my primary goal was to maintain the high standards and reputation that DogWatch had built. It wasn’t just about selling a product; it was about creating trust and building relationships. I focused on understanding each customer’s needs and providing tailored solutions, which fostered loyalty and satisfaction.

As we expanded, my son’s involvement brought fresh perspectives and ideas. His passion for the business and his ability to connect with customers has been invaluable. We’ve worked on various community projects, hosted events, and continuously sought ways to improve our offerings. Our customers appreciate the personal touch and the fact that we genuinely care about their pets’ well-being.

Innovation and Technology

DogWatch has always been at the forefront of innovation. The introduction of the SafeLink FM technology, which provides superior signal reliability and protection, was a significant upgrade that further solidified our trust in the brand. We also offer training and support, ensuring that customers are comfortable using the system and can maximize its benefits.

In my journey, I’ve realized that success is not just about having a great product but also about being adaptable and responsive to changing needs. We’ve incorporated new technologies, expanded our service areas, and developed comprehensive training programs. This adaptability has allowed us to stay relevant and continue to grow in a competitive market.

Customer Relationship

Engaging with our customers has been a highly rewarding aspect of our business. Over the years, we have observed the growth of families, the aging of dogs, and the introduction of new pets into households. Our consistent presence has provided support and ensured their safety. We aim to be more than merely a business.

Our relationship with our customers is based on trust and mutual respect. Many customers have remained loyal to us for years, which serves as a testament to our commitment to excellence.

Looking Ahead

As we move forward, we remain dedicated to providing exceptional service and peace of mind, cherishing the trust and loyalty that has fueled our success. The future holds exciting opportunities for growth and innovation. With my son and Justin by my side, I am confident that we will continue to uphold the values that have defined our journey and make a positive impact on our community.

Working with my son has brought new energy to our business. We’re united by a shared love for dogs and a commitment to excellence. Each day, we look for ways to improve our services and ensure the safety and happiness of the dogs we serve. The bond with our customers is invaluable, and every challenge is worth it. As we move forward, we remain dedicated to providing exceptional service and peace of mind, cherishing the trust and loyalty that has fueled our success.

DogWatch isn’t just a company; it’s a family. And together, we’re committed to making a difference, one dog at a time.

How We Work — Every Day

Safety and Well-Being Come First

Every dog we work with is trained as an individual. Safety and well-being guide how we design systems, set training levels, and introduce boundaries. Training begins with education — for both you and your dog — using clear audible warnings and gradual conditioning.

We take the time to understand each dog’s temperament, confidence level, and environment so the system supports learning without unnecessary stress. Our goal is simple: consistent containment, clear communication, and a positive experience for both pets and their owners.

Local, Responsive Service

Because we’re local and hands-on, service is personal, straightforward, and dependable.

We've had our dog fence since September. What an awesome system this is! Day 1 we were totally at ease with our Golden puppy out in the yard. The crew who installed our system was incredible. They were informative, fast, and friendly. They spent a ton if time with our puppy learning the boundary and tou can tell they really love dogs. Over the span of 4 days I removed most of the flags. Our dog sprints around but knows her boundaries. She barely ever got shocked, it didnt take much at all. I highly recommend DogWatch of the Endless Mountains ! Thank you guys!

I waited a month just to make sure it wasnt too good to be true but i am super satisfied with the results from our dog fence,, a little tweaking on levels on collars first week or so but dogs will not go near the underground perimeter… on my property you never know what heard of animals are going to be outside every day.. turkeys deer bear whatever Northeast Pennsylvania is home to comes thru our yard.. and the dogs will chase.. i have a bermese mountain dog a Mastiff and a cocker spaniel and they had a habit of hearing kids at recess at school across the street and sometimes deciding to join them as well as participating in the highschool cross country practice when they run past house… all of that has stopped… no more anxiety when you hear a bark and having to wonder what they are chasing and how far are they going to go this time… it wasnt all the time but when they go they go…. And people also drive past house like its the pocono raceway… so anyway my dogs can be let out in morning in front yard and come in when they want… tried and tested… bears been in driveway and they wont cross line.. crows across the street and they run to line and bark but refuse to go into that danger zone.. deer in yard same thing… they will not leave perimeter… didnt realize what a relief this fence has become…. No more calls from elementary school that the bermese is trying to go down the slide with the 2nd graders….. very happy with fence and the cost is a fraction of what the vet bill would be if one of the dogs gets hit by a car….
