The owner, Ed, is extremely passionate about doing his job right. We have a very difficult yard to install an invisible fence in. That being said, Ed never complained or cut corners. He listened to us on where we wanted the fence boundaries, even though they were not on the most convenient terrain. The bill was exactly what he had quoted us, no hidden costs. And when we had questions after the install, he was readily available and did not "disappear" after the job was done. He is a professional who is local and does not hide behind a national company's name. It's refreshing to hire someone who does the job right (and meticulously) and who truly enjoys his job.

He gave me a reasonable price and a fast install. He helped train dog in a reasonable time.

We contacted Pittsburgh Pet Fence and got in touch with Ed right away. He was able to give us all the necessary details and quote us a price with the initial phone call. (Thanks to google earth!) He was also good at working around our schedules (and the weather) and did the work at a convenient time. The installation was very professionally done. You can't see where the yard was dug and concrete crossed to install the lines. The install of the unit in the garage was nicely done as well. The yard area was marked with small flags for training purposes. Ed did an excellent job explaining and demonstrating the training process with us and our dog.His product and install are more affordable than other similar systems. It's a one time purchase of the training collar where as with other companies you have to purchase a new collar device on an annual basis. The unit has a battery backup for added security and the collar device is waterproof, rechargeable and pretty indestructible. Other systems did not have these advantages. We contacted Ed after talking to our neighbors who had him install their fence about a year ago and they recommended his services. We would do the same. In summary, Pittsburgh Pet Fence provided us with a good quality product and a clean and professional install at a fair price.

I researched pet fencing systems for two years before contracting with Pittsburgh Pet Fence. I knew the problems many dog owners experienced and could see the difference with Pittsburgh Pet Fence. Ed is the owner and operator - unlike the major brand shops, it is his name and reputation his customers depend on. He carries a variety of alarm systems for different breeds and owner needs. Customers directly benefit from Ed's ~20 years high tech computer networking experience. He "hardens" the installation using heavy gauge, thickly insulated cooper wire and weather proofs any spliced wires. Ed is a hard core dog lover, one of the reasons he does this work, and is great working with owners. He "hand cut" the openings to insert the fence into my front, back and side yards. Another difference to appreciate - after installation, other than marker flags you may not be able to tell where the fence was laid because he's meticulous with cutting into your lawn and with cleaning it up. He taught me how to begin training my dog Joey with the collar, walking the perimeter with him associating the warning tone with the marker flags. I needed a lot of coaching here as Joey was accustomed to going AWOL on whimsy. I watched the online training content, not Ed's stuff but the manufacturer's and you can find owner videos too. Ed always spoke with me by phone and answered my emails/messages in the following weeks of training. We did well. Our receiver collar takes inexpensive batteries, I've noticed some neighbors stopped using their systems just because the replacement batteries are too expensive. Now, I believe Pittsburgh Pet Fence now uses rechargeable collars for their customers. An added convenience of not having to take the receiver apart to replace the battery. I saved hundreds of dollars with a Pittsburgh Pet Fence. Bought a fence with higher quality materials, installation, and service. Continue to save on batteries. Wish I installed it earlier, would have saved Joey & I all of the AWOL problems. Do your homework and compare other services, but don't waste time. If you're putting hours into this project I'd recommend contacting Pittsburgh Pet Fence. Read the testimonials on Ed's web site. Carefully read the "Why Us?" tab, do the "other guys" even come close to these specs?. (He's added new features since I purchased.) Highly recommended and affordable. Suggestion: While the marker flags are in place for training take some digital pictures of your fence and draw a map with details of the installation. I included the distance from my neighbor's yard, distance from my garden, & depth. Take pictures of the map and keep them ready to warn plumbers, lawn services, etc. Change the battery in the dog collar once a year (AA in mine), same day you change the smoke detector batteries (Valentine's Day in my house).
