It all went very well. They offered me a choice of systems, including overage for certain areas inside the house, and explained how each worked. The installer took only a couple of hours to install the fence around my yard, including down in a rather steep ravine. He was very professional, and answered all the questions I had. The trainer came out the same afternoon for our first lesson.The collar can be set for a wide range of correction, and they started Sully out at a very low level, and he figured it out very quickly. On the subsequent training sessions, the trainer downloaded information from the collar that showed how many times the dog had gone into the activation field and received corrections. He also brought his dog to give Sully a tempting distraction. My dog learned the boundaries pretty quickly and even when children or other dogs pass, he stays inside the safe area. I am very well pleased with the system, and would highly recommend it. It's such a pleasure to be able to leave the door open on a nice day and let the dog go in and out as he pleases without having to worry that he'll get "happy feet" and run off down the street.
Description of Work: Installed electronic fence and provided 3 training sessions

Description of Work: It was Ok. The system works great. The instructors were insistent on separating the dogs which is almost impossible. It worked well when I walked both dogs at once.

After my initial call, they made an appointment to accommodate our need for evening hours. The salesman who was also the installer was on time, courteous and knowledgeable. He explained the different packages available and allowed us to make up our decision based on the facts given to us. The installer was a little late the day of installation but he completed the installation in just a few hours. We were able to have the install done within a few days of our original first appointment. The training was schedule quickly and the trainer was friendly and was very good with our two dogs, always making sure that we were able to help our dogs adjust to the new fence and making sure we knew what to do to make sure our dogs were trained correctly. We did use a coupon and we were not charged for the training of the additional dog. We were given the upgraded collar since our dogs were very small but they did not charge us the additional fee.
Description of Work: Installed invisible fence wire in front and backyard and containment system. Put up training flags and marked space for the dogs to know their boundaries and provided training for my two dogs based on the package we picked.

Description of Work: My underground pet containment system (that a competing vendor had installed just 5 months earlier) stopped working. Invisible Fence had a live person answer the phone who was able to give me quotes over the phone for best and worst case scenarios. They were able to send someone out within 2 days. The technician was prompt, professional and knowledgeable as well as honest. i needed to upgrade my system as the unit that had been installed just months earlier was a used (manufactured in 2002) do-it-yourself grade system. The technician installed the upgraded unit promptly and spend about 15 minutes with me and my dog to make sure we were comfortable with the system. I would highly recommend Invisible Fence to anyone.

Everything went fine. There were no complaints. They gave me a quote, and the price was as much as they said it would be.
Description of Work: They installed an invisible fence and recently redid it because our backyard was tore up.

I had the dogs trained and I came to find that I had coyotes in the area. I just loved it. They were very thorough. They had a guy come over and put the cable in. He did a very neat job. Another person came over and trained the dog. He was very good with the animal. The price was pretty average for what they did. I would use them again in the future.
Description of Work: I used Invisible Fence. I had it put in when we moved in here. They fenced the front and the back along the whole perimeter of the yard.

We moved into a house that already had an invisible fence installed, and the previous owner left the collar. Invisible fence came out, marked our yard to show us where the fence was, made sure the unit was working, and worked with our dog to get her used to the fence. Willow was the lady that came out, and she showed us different techniques to train the dog. We had a great experience.
Description of Work: Taught us how to train our dog with the invisible fence.

Zac installed the fence exactly as promised and even made an alteration the following week when we requested it. He is very good with dogs and trained our hyper-active cocker spaniel to stay within the yard without being shocked. Our dog liked him immediately. Since day 1 our dog has stayed in the yard, despite visiting squirrels, cats, raccoons and possum. I am extremely happy with the product and very happy with the service we received from Zac, their trainer and installer in our area.
Description of Work: Invisible Fence laid their cables along our entire property, both front, back and side yards. We have two zones and the dog can go thru both zones if we leave the garage doors open. This way we don't have to bring him back into the house to go from zone to zone. There are 4 training sessions, but our dog caught on from day one. He has not received a shock but the collar vibrates when the dog approaches the underground wire. If you wanted just your back yard fenced, I'm sure it would reduce the cost.
