How to Add a Pet to My PetSafe® Guardian® GPS Fence

Secure pets and remove all fence collars from your pets now. Your base will need to be set up before adding any collars.

Gather all the collars that need to be programmed and the existing collars and set them within 3 feet of your indoor base unit.

Power off all collars by pressing and holding the power button for 3 seconds. The collar will beep from high to low and the collar LED will flash red once and then turn off.


If you have the previous model collar with the removable battery, remove the battery to power it off.
