Review on ๐Ÿพ Eureka Technology MARCOPOLO Enhanced Pet Tracking Tag Accessory for Advanced Pet Monitoring, Tracking, and Locating System by Jim Jarvis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I don't dare leave her because coyotes sweep the neighborhood every night, but she often won't come when she gets a call

I needed two locators for my Marco Polo system, one for my labrador retriever and one for my cat. The cat only weighs 8 pounds and loves to hide from me when it's time to come back at night. I dare not leave her unattended as coyotes scour the area every night but she is often reluctant to come when called so this is the perfect product. I checked him out and he led me straight to their exact hiding place. I think if I do this a few more times she will just give up and come when called! Let's see... I take my labrador on weekend hikes and he can't stay out of the water for a minute. This product is designed for long sailing so it is perfect for him. Plus, it works without cellular coverage, which is often patchy in the places we visit. The cost difference was also evident when compared to the GPS system I was looking at. This other product costs $80 for hardware and $120 per year for maintenance - almost double what it cost to add a second pet to my Marco Polo system in the first year! But that's not all, with a GPS system the service charges alone are the cost of a Marco Polo tag and go on forever. Even if the GPS is cat-friendly (which it isn't) and works where I travel with the dog (which it won't), the cost will be much higher. That makes Marco Polo an easy task.

Pros
  • pet supplies
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.
