Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines and environment.

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.

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

Completely forgot what day he’s supposed to work and didn’t walk my dog for a day. Shows up whenever he wants and dosen’t fill out the rover card and left the back gate wide open for my dog to get out. Had to constantly check to see if he walked my dog and ask if he’s walking him. Cherry on top he took my spare keys from the lockbox that was meant for the next walker with him. Now the current walker sends me an empty lock box picture. Thank you Jeffery and I hope the app bans you.

Jeffrey was great. He took our little guy for a run and took good care of him. Our dog warmed right up to Jeffrey.
