When you are sick, you want personal attention from a doctor you trust. You want one-on-one care in a quiet, calm environment; one that helps you forge a bond with your primary physician. The same applies to your pet. Dr. Jake Tedaldi founded Vetcall with this in mind, because pets feel more comfortable in a familiar, intimate setting. Unlike large animal hospitals that are often filled with barking, screeching and overall chaos, Vetcall guarantees that your pet will benefit from an ever-lasting close relationship.

I reached out to Dr. Jake after a less-than-optimal visit to a local Cambridge vet. He was able to see us quickly, and came to us! He was fantastic taking care of my dog, Lola, and was able to assuage some fears I had leftover from the former vet visit. He explained what he was doing, what was normal, and what wasn't at every step. We are so glad to have found our vet, and would highly recommend Dr. Jake!

When my cat, Mowgli, was sick, I called Dr. Tedaldi's office on a Sunday and spoke to the receptionist. He personally called me back that night and was able to come to my place to see my cat the next day. During the exam he was extremely kind, informative, and most importantly, compassionate. He explained everything he was doing, and explained his diagnosis in detail.
After the exam, he has been texting me to keep updated on my cat's condition. He's been very compassionate about Mowgli's health, and has answered every question I've thrown at him via text or call (and I have asked him a ton of questions). While the diagnosis for my cat, Mowgli, was unfortunate and has caused a lot of emotional pain and stress, I'm glad Dr. "Jake" Tedaldi was the one to deliver him care.
His quick replies, informative responses, and compassion have made this situation much easier to go through. Whether you want a mobile vet that comes to you, or a vet that you take your loved pet to, I would highly recommend Dr. Tedaldi. It's clear he chose this profession because of his love for animals, and he goes above and beyond in making sure they are well!

It is difficult to get any response from Dr Tedaldi. Even though I have his direct email address (since he has seen my cat before and she is basically his patient), I sent repeated requests to schedule an appointment and received nothing in return. When you can get a response, and he comes, he is a good vet (though he is not cheap), but the problems with actually getting him to respond and come to your house are not worth it.

When it came time to let our beloved dog go, we were referred to Dr. "Jake" Tedaldi as a vet who made house calls. We had no idea who he was or what kind of care he would provide, only that we assumed he knew what he was doing since he was referred by a cardiac specialist. He responded very quickly and we arranged for him to meet us at our house later in the evening.
We are so incredibly grateful for his calm presence during the last moments of our dog's life. It's truly remarkable: we let this total stranger into our house and he quietly guided us through what was the most difficult moment of our life with incredible compassion, kindness, and professionalism.

Jake Tadaldi had been our vet for years. Our dog got very sick. Jake was unable to diagnose him and told us it was time to put him down. We then went to Angell Memorial, where they quickly diagnosed him with Addisons Disease. When we called Jake to tell him our dog had a treatable condition, he never even returned our call. So Jake might be okay for routine checkups, and it's convienent that he'll come to your house, but I would never recommend him for any serious situation.

Dr. Jake Tadaldi is a superb veterinarian. His knowledge and experience relating to animal care is incredibly in depth - he's literally a human dictionary and has the proper treatment for any pet related issue that may arise, either minor or major. He's naturally warm with animals and it shows in the relationship he has with his own Lab, with my Labradoodle and all other dogs at the Boston Common dog park. Dr. Jake is a great guy. He's always available for advice and most importantly, I trust him with any judgement call for the good of my best friend (dog). If you're looking for a Veterinarian in the Boston area, look no further than Dr. Jake Tadaldi. He's a true professional that has a genuine love for animals.

I must say Jake Tadaldi is probably one of the best things that has happened regarding veterinary care in my entire lifetime of being a pet owner. This is not an exaggeration. Our dog is a rescue and a very anxious dog. Going to the vet in general is stressful for even the calmest of dogs, but for ours, it's pure anxiety filled torture. She panicked as soon as we walked in the door.
She also can be very insure and nervous around strangers and her nerves are manifested in growling and other fear aggressive behavior. We found out our dog had a mast cell tumor on her ear and our current vet at the time advised we amputate her entire ear. I decided to get a second opinion before moving forward with such an extreme measure and I am so happy I did.
We were connected with Jake through one of his current clients and he was beyond responsive, texting and calling multiple times during his 4th of July weekend. He was really engaged and you could tell he really cared. When he first met our dog, he was unfazed by her growling and got right down on the floor and drew blood from her like it was nothing.
She barely knew what had happened. We just recently completed surgery on her, with only a small portion if her ear being removed and once again, his entire interaction with her was dead on perfect- he really gets how to deal with animals in a way that makes a normally very stressful scenario as stress-free as possible. The service is priceless and Jake Tadaldi is a pro. Best vet ever, no joke.

What can I say about Dr. Jake Tedaldi--he is kind, throrough, professional, very smart AND he comes to the house, putting you and your animals at ease.
Dr. Jake has taken care of a number of my pets including treating them for various ailments and euthanizing my beloved 19 year old cat who had developed a huge mass on her abdomen . She was unafraid when he injected her and she drifted off in the basket she loved and slept in everyday.
She died in her home with the family who she loved and who loved her dearly in return. Thanks to Dr. Jake Tedaldi for making such a sad event seem peaceful and stress free for all of us.

Vets that come to your house. If only everything were this easy. Here's the gist.our cat, Snowball, is a very loving, gentle animal until it's time to go to the vet. Last time we took him, he made the vet bleed. Really. He's ordinarily not vicious, but the smell of the other animals freaks him out. This is why we decided to find a vet that made house calls.
That and the fact that we couldn't even get him in the carrier (let's face it, he knows where he goes when he gets in the carrier). Dr. Tedaldi was super easy to schedule and the cats didn't even realize he was the vet - score! Snowball got all of his shots and had a full exam without even a growl. Yeah, I'm still in shock too.
Our other cat, Matt, also didn't growl, but he loves everyone so that doesn't count. It's pricier than our regular vet, but totally worth it especially if you have a pet that gets really stressed or if you have multiple pets that you don't want to all load up and haul to the vet at once.
