Welcome to Our GPS Dog Tracking and Locator System Comparison Chart Page.
As you can see from the chart below, the RoamEO is not the least expensive dog tracking system on the market - at least initially.
However, if you plan on having your dog a year from now, the price difference really becomes clear. Most of our competitors want to lock you into a monthly service plan, with early termination penalties - much like the cell phone companies. They will send you a text message on your cell phone or require your to go to their web site to get the location of your dog. The problem is, by the time they send you a text message, you receive it, and get to your cell phone and read it, this information is out-of-date at best. By the time you receive notification, your dog has most likely moved.
RoamEO is the only GPS Dog Tracking and Location System that lets you know where your dog is at all times - in Real Time!
