About Jeffrey L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines and environment. I carefully follow feeding, medication, and litter box instructions, and I’m always mindful of safety—making sure doors are secure, avoiding stressful handling, and staying alert to any changes in behavior or health. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family. You can expect clear communication and regular updates while you’re away, so you always know your cat is in good hands.
Home
Information Jeffrey L. would like to know about your pet
I always want to give your pet the best care possible, so let me know anything important up front—special routines, medications, personality quirks, likes/dislikes, or past behavior (e.g. anxiety, leash reactivity, escape habits). The more I know, the better I can keep them happy, calm, and safe while you’re away!
A typical day
I love keeping pets active and engaged! I’ll bring my lacrosse stick to toss tennis balls for high-energy fetch sessions (a favorite with bigger dogs), go for jogs with pups who love to run, or take relaxing walks through nearby trails and parks. For cats, I’m all about wand toys, cozy window time, and finding what gets their tail twitching. Whether your pet is playful or more low-key, I’ll match their energy and keep them happy!

Reliable student & animal
Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Jeffrey, a premed student and EMT at Tufts University and a lifelong animal lover. I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and have experience with everything from playful kittens and high energy pups to shy cats and senior pets who need extra patience and care. I’m comfortable administering medications and caring for older animals, and I have extensive experience with large dogs. My own dog was 130 pounds, so handling big, strong breeds is second nature to me. I understand feline and canine behavior well and focus on keeping pets happy, calm, and stress free. I’m also a runner and would love to take energetic dogs on long walks or runs. I’m flexible, dependable, respectful of your home, and as a fun bonus, I’m happy to draw a portrait of your pet at no extra cost because I love art! Just let me know

Reviews
Sent daily photos. Cash was taken care of and he was very attentive to Cash
Jeffrey was great. He took our little guy for a run and took good care of him. Our dog warmed right up to Jeffrey.
Jeffrey stayed in our home for ~1 week, watching our cat and dog. During this time our dog needed to be coned and required a little extra care, but Jeffrey provided great care for both our animals and our home. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for pet sitting in the Medford area!
Dependable, reliable, and my dogs loved him.
