Testimonials

Highly recommend Parker’s academy for any training or boarding needs. We were out of town during their training and boarding and didn’t feel nervous at all while we were away. We knew our fur children Juniper and Goose were in great hands. They had so much fun we hoped they’d want to come back home lol. Parker has an engaging training style that even on day 2 we could see how much better behaved they were. Thanks for doing the heavy lifting Parker, it put us in a great spot to continue what they had learned. It’s transformed our lives being able to be confident incorporating our dogs outside the home and making more memories with them. Also really appreciate the follow on support Parker provides to ensure success- he really cares for all the animals and improving their lives with their humans and that come through his training and you can tell he loves what he does. We feel grateful and lucky to have crossed paths and look forward to future boarding stays at Chateau Parker’s Academy!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Parker’s K9 Academy! From the very beginning, the communication was clear, professional, and reassuring. The team took time to understand Kai’s personality, needs, and goals. During the training, Parker provided daily updated, photos and videos. I was completely at ease knowing he was in such capable hands.

The transformation in Kai’s behavior has been incredible. It’s clear they truly care about both dogs and their families.

We came home equipped with the tools to keep the progress going at home.

If you’re looking for a trustworthy and results driven training program, Parker’s K9 is the place!

Parker literally saved our rescue dog’s life. He was a farm dog that had never been walked on a leash, had zero training, was severely underweight and showed concerning signs of anxiety, and resource guarding. When we dropped Bear off, we weren’t sure we could even keep him.

Within a week, we had hope. But when we picked up Bear, he was a completely different dog! Bear walks on a leash like a champ, is confident of his role in our family, is able to coexist with our other dogs, and is eating and gaining weight!

Not only did Parker train Bear how to be a calm, well behaved family dog, he trained us how to be good owners to him. We are so grateful!

About the Trainer

Parker’s K9 Academy in Mukilteo, WA, offers board and train programs designed to transform dog behavior through a balanced training approach. Founder Parker specializes in immersive two-week programs where dogs live in his home and receive personalized training in obedience, impulse control, and manners. Dogs learn essential commands like sit, stay, heel, recall, place, and car and door manners, while also overcoming issues like leash pulling, barking, jumping, and resource guarding. The program includes E-Collar conditioning to enhance off-leash reliability in high-distraction environments. Every client receives follow-up sessions to teach owners how to use the E-Collar and reinforce training at home, ensuring lasting results. Boarding is available only to graduates of the training program.

Parker’s passion for dog training stems from personal experience—losing two family dogs to traffic accidents—which drove him to focus on safety, confidence, and reliable obedience. He has trained dogs ranging from anxious rescues to energetic puppies and stubborn breeds, with clients reporting dramatic behavioral transformations. His background as a golf instructor informs his patient, structured teaching style.

The academy emphasizes communication, daily updates via photos and videos, and building a strong bond between dog and owner. Training is tailored to each dog’s personality and needs, with a focus on creating calm, confident, and well-mannered companions.

Accomplishments
