Our Story

Meet the team behind My Buddy Gard and learn about our mission to provide top-notch GPS tracking solutions. Discover how we're dedicated to improving safety and peace of mind for families and businesses alike.

How We Started...

My Buddy Gard started when our CEO, Erika Wager, needed to find a solution for her elderly Mum to keep her independence., but it didn’t take long for her to see that she could also help other people look after their loved ones and gift them peace of mind, security and freedom!

And this is what sets My BuddyGard apart from other GPS tracking companies!

Our drive and ultimately our success comes from the heart. We know how we’d want our loved ones treated.

Having built a successful business selling GPS trackers for cars, Erika saw the new personal trackers that were emerging as a perfect tool for her to help keep my mum safe and independent from afar…

Although the tracking industry was evolving quickly, she found that what was on the market was limited, so she built her own app so that everyone can add their whole support team on the one screen.
