Pet care experience

Certified dog trainer

I have had dogs in my life since I was a young child and have worked training puppies, poodle mixes, for the last two and a half years. I have had experience with oral medication and brushing poodle hair. I love taking dogs for walks and playing in the backyard. On hot days there is a doggy splash pad available for those who like water play as well as frozen pumpkin treats.

Esther boarded and trained our puppy when he was 8 weeks old. She did a wonderful job teaching him tricks and house training him. She is very loving and very knowledgeable. She did such a wonderful job we boarded him with her again when we went away for 2 weeks. We felt very secure knowing he was in a safe and caring environment. We plan to use Esther again in the future.

Esther has spent time with our dog, Harambe, for the last 6 years and is super attentive, gentle, and caring! She was able to recommend a great calming dog treat to help Harambe with his thunderstorm/fireworks related anxiety. She is a wealth of knowledge and is very in-tune with a dog's particular needs.

Esther Basile has been a part of our family for about 20 years. Esther is kind, friendly and helpful to people and all animals, wild and domestic. She and her husband have owned their golden doodle Strider for 7 plus years. Over the last several years, she was employed by a doodle company as a certified puppy trainer & receives great praise from the owners of the pets she has trained as well as requests from them for pet sitting & additional training. Esther demonstrates professionalism, patience and lots of love to the puppies. They thrive and learn the commands quickly. In my opinion, Esther is the ideal person to care for someone’s beloved pet. She is knowledgable, caring and responsible.

Schedule

I currently work mostly from home and will only be out for a few hours a couple of days so there will be plenty of time for walks and games. What better way to end the day than to relax on the couch!

Safety, trust & environment

I have one goldendoodle to keep your fur baby company and though he is big, he is super gentle with the little dogs. I have a 4.5 foot tall chain link fence around our back yard. I have crates with dog beds for over night and during the day your dog will have access to our living spaces. Since I'm home most of the time, dogs can be outside/inside according to their preference. Please inform me of any quirks or dietary needs your dog may have. To protect your dog from overheating or hypothermia, walks will be limited when it's over 85°F or below 30°F.

Pets

A typical day

I love to stimulate you dog physically and mentally. We can play games, go for walks around the neighborhood, explore the smells around the field across the street, and on the warm days play in a dog splash pad or have a frozen treat. If your dog is more of a couch potato, then there are plenty of cozy dog beds and our couch for snoozing!
