you could use a transistor to swith the mosfet.
There are plenty that saturate below 5V, some of the 5V ones are just hitting fully on at that input and there's no logic device I'm aware of that puts out a pure 5V output unless you're using CMOS, even then we've got a lot of logic devices that consider less than 3V to be a logic level 1.The answer is to use the PROPER MOSFET.
Get a LOGIC LEVEL MOSFET. They saturate at 5v.
