On Google, Dog Watch of Cape Cod holds a 5-star average across 147 ratings — a striking run for a company that doesn't build fences you can see. It's an authorized DogWatch dealership installing and repairing hidden, underground electronic containment fences for dogs and cats around Cape Cod, and the Better Business Bureau lists it under Fence Contractors with an A+ grade, though the company hasn't sought BBB accreditation. The reviews from 2021 through 2026 tell a consistent story. A dog chews through a spot in the buried wire, a landscaping crew nicks the line, or a root grows into it, and someone from the company is out within days — sometimes the same day for a real scare — to trace the break and re-splice it. Ed, Marie and Marshall are the names that keep recurring, on both new installs and repair calls, and reviewers describe clear scheduling calls, technicians who show up when promised, and hands-on training so a new or nervous dog actually learns where the flagged boundary is. In the past six months alone, twenty new reviews have landed and none are negative. A handful of 2025 reviews mention the business changing ownership, and the same names keep turning up afterward doing the same kind of attentive repair work, so the handover doesn't come across as a dip in service. One thing worth asking about before booking: a June 2026 reviewer, otherwise satisfied with the scheduling and the repair itself, noted that the price of a service call has climbed sharply lately — worth pinning down what a visit costs before the truck rolls. This fits a Cape Cod or South Shore household that wants a dog to run loose in the yard without a visible fence, not someone shopping for a wood or vinyl fence installer. Given how often the same few technicians and the same careful troubleshooting show up across five years of reviews, confirming current pricing is the main thing left to check before calling.
Ed did a great job revamping and upgrading our existing Dogwatch fence after major home renovations. Very knowledgeable about the system and how it works best on our property.
amazing customer service. strong care and concern for our dogs.
Ed and Marie were so easy to work with. Installation and training went smoothly and Ed's training was extremely helpful. Highly recommend!
John was here on time. He was courteous, friendly, and helpful. He discovered the problem almost immediately. He certainly is an asset to your company. Kim S.
