About DogWatch® of the Bay Area and Northern California
Christine and Troy Dykes are the founders and operators of DogWatch® Hidden Fences of the Bay Area and Northern California: "We realize there are several brands to choose from when considering the purchase of a pet containment system. We'd like to thank you for taking the time to research your choices before deciding upon the best training product for your dog. We have been in business since 1996 and have tried and tested ALL brands in this industry. We know and understand our competition, whether it's a store-bought DIY kit or a professionally installed brand. We represent DogWatch® because we found it to be a versatile, quality-constructed product line superior to other makers with such features as the FM Safelink design, 2 year receiver collar battery life (versus the 3 to 4 month battery life of the competitors'), and a user-friendly transmitter. We offer sales, installation, training and service of all DogWatch® products in a timely, professional manner. We'd love to meet with you (and your dog) to discuss the safety and benefits of the DogWatch system. We'll offer advice about creating a proper boundary or barrier, and detail the installation, training and costs involved. We can help with behavioral and obedience issues, too. We'll gladly provide product literature, contractor's license & bond information, letters of reference and 100-200 names of local clients. You'll be able to make a well-informed decision based upon facts, not bravado.
We are a true family-owned and operated small business. We do not hire contract labor. Our territory is large; we service the Monterey, San Francisco Bay Area, Napa/Sonoma, Sacramento, Sierra foothills, and Truckee/Tahoe markets. We are committed to great customer service, but we do not rely on service revenue. We prefer to install the DogWatch® system with quality work and heavy-grade materials. For that reason, we do not claim to be price competitive with other companies. However, we do guarantee that we are the best value. If you’re looking for a company that uses odd sales tactics, or a company where you won't talk to the same person twice...we’re not the company for you. But if you’re looking for personalized and timely service, superior products, and honest business practices, give us a try - you won’t be disappointed. We hope to have the opportunity to help keep your pet safe."
We are "Simply the Best...No Getting Around it™"
