  If you are looking for a professional dog walker then I would recommend Petpals. My dog loves his walks, he gets to socialise with other dogs and gets a very long and interesting hour or so of exercise. Paul is very experienced and knowledgeable and I feel comfortable that my dog is being looked after 100%.

  Paul from Basingstoke has been looking after Oscar, our Rhodesian Ridgeback, for all of this year. He came and met Oscar and evaluated him and was happy to take hi on. As a dominant breed, Ridgebacks need a firm but, fair hand and it is absolutely clear that Oscar trusts Paul 100% and that Paul get's the best out of Oscar as he always comes back ready to sleep! I can't recommend Paul or PetPals highly enough.

  My hubby and i got Molly 2 months ago and she is most definitely our baby, she is very loveable and we are very protective of her. My job means that I am able to work from home some of the time but other times I away for a few days at a time and my husband doesn't work from home. Paul comes around and looks after Molly ensuring she has her food and comfort break and even cleans up!!!! Paul texts me once he has been to say all is ok and that's such a relief for me so i can concentrate and focus back on work. Molly is now 4 months old and i feel it's now time to get her out on some long walks with Paul and i look forward to coming home to a tired puppy. Paul, is great with advice and i cannot thank him enough, he offers a flexible, friendly and reliable service, I wouldn't hesitate in recommended him.

  My husband and I got Alfie 9 months ago and as we do not have children he has become our first child! My job means that I am able to work from home some of the time but other times I am out all day. It is such a weight off my mind that Paul can come around and take Alfie out for a walk with his pals. I not only can concentrate on my work but Alfie gets socialised with other dogs and Paul has also incorporated training into his walks! We get regular updates from Paul, advice and photos. I cannot thank him enough, he offers a flexible, friendly and reliable service, I have recommended him to lots of people!

  It was such a relief to have Paul look after Our Cocker Spaniel Ollie while we were away for a week. He adores his daily walks with Paul and to know he was in his care while we were away was fantastic . We do not know what we would do without Pauls flexibility, helpfulness and kindness. We are big fans!!!

  Paul has been walking Belle since September and she clearly enjoys it! The photos of the dog walks are lovely to see and gives us peace of mind knowing that Belle is being exercised and well cared for whilst we are at work. Not only is the walking service excellent but Paul and his team are very caring and have taken on the task of given Belle her eyedrops once a day-which trust me - is no easy task! We are very happy with the service and wish we had contacted Paul sooner! Many Thanks

  Paul recently walked Saffy, our 9 month old Golden Retriever, for a few days whilst we were away on holiday. Judging by the photos on the website, she had a great time with Peanut, Brady, Baxter & Marley. We were very pleased with the service and would not hesitate to use Paul's services again.

  Great investment - sorted Marley out a treat and she would greatly miss her "club" days as we call them - great value for money and a really good company for trying to accomodate all changes that have to be made - personable - friendly and most of caring of their charges

  Boz and Mica seem very happy with their weekly walk. I was glad to see them in the pictures at last. They seem a bit reserved with other dogs but with increased socialisation, I look forward to them looking more friendly! Hopefully they will build up a good rapport with other dogs over time. I am sure that the socialisation is doing them good. Many thanks for your good work.

  Hi Paul Thanks very much for looking after the Cats, I hope they didn't give you any trouble and it was comforting to know they were being well looked after. We shall definitely use you again. I would also add that the text messages gave me complete confidence so I could relax and didn't have to worry... Thanks again Carol

  Paul regularly takes our two Jack Russells, Brady and Peanut, out for walks and day care. The great thing about Paul's service is that he texts me to let me know when he has picked up the dogs and also when they have been dropped off. The dogs are always tired on their return which is great for us. Many thanks Paul

  Dougie (a three year old chocolate lab) has been walking with Paul for a few months now and it's a great service. He's well looked after and the flexible approach suits my lifestyle perfectly. I'd highly recommend the service to all pet owners who feel guilty when they head out to work!

  Paul has helping walking our Golden Retriever Nelson for a couple of months now and is fabulous! He takes Nelson out on lovely country walks with other friends and he always has a lovely time and comes home tired out. Paul is polite, courteous and always courteous and we would have no hesitation recommending him to others. We would be lost without the service so a big thank you!

  Paul recently looked after our two cats for two weeks whilst we went on holiday. I was a bit worried about leaving them home alone but equally didn't want them to be cold in a cattery. They were extremely well cared for and happy on our return. Oscar looked really well and had put on weight (he's older and had been a bit run-down). Paul even watered the plants! I wouldn't hesitate to use Petpals again, thanks Paul.

  Our two boxers have been with a number of dog walkers over the years - Paul I think is rapidly becoming their favorate! They are always happy to see him, they are back in the house clean and dry and best of all, they are tired and happy to settle down in the evening - suggesting they are getting plenty of exercise. It's a big thing handing over the keys to your house and the leads to your dogs - we are more than happy to do both with paul.

  Having recently starting using the Petpals service in Basingstoke my expectations for the level of care of our Labrador, Baxter, has been surpassed in every way. The whole process has also helped socialise Baxter, a 9 month old, with other dogs that attend the daily walk. I would whole-heartedly recommend Paul Kelly from Petpals Basingstoke to anyone looking for pair of qualified and safe hands for their valued pet.

  JB was very happy after his walks on days that i was away from home. It was very useful that i could contact Paul the evening before to confirm or re-arrange the next days dog walking. I am very happy with the service and will continue to use Petpals as the need arises. The pictures on flickr are a really good idea. Thanks. Tim

  We were overjoyed with the service of Petpals Basingstoke, when we first met Paul we knew that our Busta was going to be in safe hands for the weekend, and when Busta returned from his holiday he slept from the moment he arrived almost through to the next day, which in Busta's world is a sign of a very good time. Thank you Petpals and especially Paul who made his stay a most enjoyable one ! Jess & Kev
