As a full-time traveling house sitter that has cared for 25+ homes, pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I intentionally schedule my days around each pet’s established feeding, exercise, play, and care routines while maintaining the home as if it were my own. Because this is my full time focus, I’m able to provide consistent attention, adapt to each household’s preferences, and ensure pets receive dependable care throughout my stay.

About Zuri A.

Safety, trust & environment

House and pet sitting gives me the ability to experience new environments while maintaining structure and consistency in my daily life. I genuinely enjoy the companionship and presence of pets in the home. I like learning their personalities, how different animals and breeds interact with their environment, and what helps them feel comfortable and at ease. I also enjoy play, interaction, and building a calm, steady presence with them during a sit. I provide structured, routine based care including feeding, walking, playtime, enrichment, and oral medication when it can be given with ease and cooperation. I value calm, stable home environments with clear instructions and consistent routines. I do best in well maintained, organized homes that are clutter free, odor free, clean, and with minimal excess pet hair buildup. I also appreciate the use of air purifiers when available. While I work remotely and am primarily at home, my work includes focused independent periods, and I check in on pets throughout the day as part of their routine care. A video call (Zoom or Google Meet) is required prior to confirming a sit to ensure a mutual fit for both home and pet care expectations. I appreciate homeowners who are familiar with my profile and come prepared with any questions as well. I am not a fit for: • Highly Velcro pets requiring constant proximity or attention • Aggressive behavior toward humans or other animals • Physical force based handling, training, or behavior modification responsibilities • Daily intensive mess cleanup or unmanaged accidents • Co-sleeping (pets must sleep independently in their own space outside the bedroom) • Frequent last minute changes, unclear schedules, or unstable routines I value clear communication, respectful, hospitable, and well structured sits.

Information Zuri A. would like to know about your pet

It’s important that I have a clear understanding of your pet’s needs, health conditions, routines, and any personality quirks ahead of time so I can provide the best care possible. Please be transparent about your pet and home environment during the booking process. If important details about a pet’s needs, behavior, or home expectations are misrepresented and it impacts my ability to safely provide care, the booking may be subject to cancellation. For emergencies or medical situations, a trusted emergency contact must be available who can transport your pet to the veterinarian, make medical decisions, and handle any required payments. I’m happy to communicate with your designated contact and help coordinate care, but I do not take financial responsibility or assume ownership of medical decisions for a pet.

A typical day

I love creating fun, engaging experiences based on each pet’s personality and energy level. I enjoy playing games, practicing tricks, and using puzzles or enrichment activities to encourage focus, confidence, and mental stimulation. I like giving pets opportunities to explore through new sights and smells, whether that’s a relaxed sniff walk, outdoor play, or a fun activity like water play when they enjoy it. I choose activities based on what I notice about each pet’s preferences so they feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for.

Pet care experience

I specialize in caring for calm, well-trained, highly independent pets while maintaining a clean, organized, and well-cared-for home. My goal is to follow your pet’s established routine and provide consistent, dependable care while you’re away. I’m a great fit for households with pets that are well-mannered, comfortable with their routines, and able to settle independently. I focus on maintaining the environment your pets are already familiar with, ensuring they remain safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout your absence.

Zuri took care of our cat Thunder and our home for several days. She was outstanding! The questions Zuri asked when we video chatted before the sit were incredibly detailed, and showed attentiveness to Thunder's needs and personality. We felt very confident right away that she would be a wonderful sitter. Thunder is extremely shy and often doesn't come out from hiding when we are away. On the very first day, Zuri patiently lured her out by using treats and an open, gentle manner, and our cat trusted her. It was a relief knowing that Thunder was in Zuri's knowledgeable and caring hands. Zuri took excellent care of our house, too, and left it clean as a whistle. If we could give her ten stars, we would! Thank you, Zuri!
