I can't thank Joseph enough, we booked him last minute. My husband could unplug from being the caretaker of the dog and enjoy a nice convention day. Yoshi loves Joseph and we will hopefully be able to rebook him soon! Thank you for everything!

Joe was great with my dogs and left my home in the same shape it was prior to his staying. I would recommend him to anyone else in need of a sitter.

Joe was awesome! Very prompt, communicative and even took my dog for a couple of jogs over the course of the week! Would definitely recommend him, and will be requesting him for dog walks in the future!

I am Catherine Gallouet, and until recently, I was a professor at Hobart and William Smith colleges where Joe tate was enrolled as a student. I met him when I send a request out to students to find someone who could care for my dog Rasta while I was away at a conference. I did not know him prior to that moment. I chose him because of his experience with dog ownership, and because of his general demeanor with my dog when he first met her. He soon became a favorite human for Ratsta and a friend of the family. He so loved her that he would call and offer to take her out on a run, just for the fun of it. On one occasion when I had to be away, Joe was planning to visit his family. Rather than leving me in a lurch, he proposed to take Rasta with him on that visit, all the way form up state NY to Philadelphia. When she was there, he sent me pictures of Rasta playing with their dogs. I cannot recommend Joe Tate more strongly, both as a dog lover, and as a human. Thank you for oyur consideration.

Joe did an excellent job with our dog! He is timely, responsible, and provides great care. Our dog seemed to love him. I would recommend Joe to anyone!
