"Exceptional! Outstanding! I posted the review below in February when Derrick from K9Keepers came and installed my DogWatch hidden fence. It was the dead of winter then, though, so they could only pin the wire to the ground, with the promise of coming back in the spring to bury the wire. So I wanted to update my review to further illustrate just how good of a company K9Keepers is. As promised, Rachael from K9Keepers called in early April to schedule an appointment for them to come and bury the wire. We set up the time for April 28th at 9am. The day arrived, and Derrick was right on time (ok, full disclosure, Derrick pointed out that it was 9:06 when he got there, but I think most anyone would count less than 10 minutes as 'on-time'). Derrick and his assistant got down to business and got the wire buried quickly and efficiently. As usual, there was GENUINE friendly and professional service. I couldn't be happier with my purchase - it has worked so well with my dog, and it has given my wife and I such peace of mind. And I am especially pleased that I went through DogWatch by K9 Keeper Fencing with Derrick and Rachael Woiderski! Thank you!! Original posting from February, 2017: If there were more stars, Derrick would get them. I had a hidden fence in my previous home about 10 years ago (I believe it was Pet Safe Pro), so I knew I wanted another one. I had Derrick come out and take a look at my property, and he was RIGHT on time to the minute!! I had an idea of what I wanted, but discussion with Derrick gave me different approaches that I hadn't thought of before. I'm retired from the Air Force, and I've had my own business, so I have a lot of respect for honesty, integrity, timeliness and quality, and I don't much care for the 'salesman' type thing. It simply didn't feel that way with Derrick - I could tell...no, I could FEEL that he believed in his product and business. Well, we obviously came to an agreement and we set up a time for him to come and install the fence, which was today. And before I get into the installation, I'm sure people would want to know about pricing. I did my due diligence and checked out other companies as well before just going to DogWatch, and Derrick's prices beat the competition, as well as the batteries and lifetime warranties on the products. AND, I'm able to make any kind of adjustments to the strength of the signal that I deem is necessary; other companies make you call them to come out to make any adjustments. I get that from a pet protection perspective, but I (and I think the VAST majority of people) love their pets and wouldn't do anything to harm them - otherwise, why spend the money on a hidden fence, right? So I want that control. Dogwatch gives me that. So, on to the installation day, today. Again, EXACTLY on time. 9:00am he pulled into my driveway. We reviewed what was to be done, and Derrick got down to work. It only took a few hours, which included going under a sidewalk and cutting across a driveway. After installation, Derrick spent a good amount of time going over everything with me. Even though I've had a hidden fence before; he wanted to make sure I understood their product. Then we brought out Riley (my dog's name is Riley...Riley Coyote Super Genius...if you like cartoons and remember Coyote and Road Runner, then you get it.). Derrick spent a lot of time (and snacks) to get Riley to start to understand the flags, keeping things at the lowest possible setting to get Riley to understand something is there, but not hurt her. It was obvious that he cared about getting this right! My pup started to catch on very quickly. I will need to continue to work with her, but she's a smart girl and will learn fast. I know I've written a lot, and I hope people read this, but the product, the pricing, the installation, the training, the service, the overall experience with this was just plain WORTH IT! THANK YOU Derrick and K9 Keeper (and Dogwatch)!! Best regards, Frank Bell Kalamazoo, Michigan"
