“Terry was fabulous for her walk with Atlas! She arrived promptly at the scheduled walk time, and provided a detailed write-up with lots of photos to capture her visit, which included not just the neighborhood walk, but also play time in the backyard, pets, and practice of Atlas's "commands"! We are looking forward to having Terry come stay with Atlas during an upcoming trip, as it's abundantly clear that she takes great pride in the pet care she provides!”

Jonathan P.
“I had a 12 year old rescue Golden Retriever named Sam. I got him when he was 9. He was my best friend and he helped me survive Graduate school. However, after graduated I was gone for most of the day with my new job and I couldn’t take care of Sam like I needed to do. He had to be taken out to use the bathroom every 4 hours and given 3 different types of medications once in the morning when he ate, and at night after he ate. I was so nervous about asking someone to take care of him for me but I wasn’t ready to let Sam go. Jonathan was a savior for me. He would spend time with Sam and give him lots of needed attention. He would send me pictures of them at the park, going to get pup cups, and meeting new dogs. With his background working at a vet office he clearly understood how to handle the medication Sam needed. I truly believe that because of Jonathan I was able to have more good memories with my best friend. Hiring Jonathan Parker as a dog walker, or care taker for your loved one is a great decision.”
