Professional pet bestie for hire!
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Zuri. I’ve been professionally pet sitting for over two years, and I absolutely love it. I’ve cared for animals my whole life, and after being the go-to sitter for friends and family, I decided to offer my services professionally while I’m back in school. I've been with Rover for about two years and have learned so much along the way. I specialize in caring for high-energy dogs, large breeds, cats of all temperaments, reptiles, rodents, and fish. I also love taking cute, high-quality photos of the pets in my care! I consider my style of pet sitting to be compassionate, caring, and attentive. I am also comfortable being the disciplinarian and setting boundaries, and an expert at providing a safe place for your pets to be themselves. I am capable of going on long walks, administering medications, provide active playtime, and calm companionship. I will always follow your direction and care for your pet the way you would want your pet to be cared for. You are your pet's best friend, and when you aren't home, they need a stand-in. I will be your pet's bestie while you are away, someone they can trust and relax around. You’ll return home to a happy, well-cared-for companion. Notes & Policies Multi-pet households: I keep my additional pet fee low to support multi-pet homes. For house-sitting, if your dogs need to be walked separately, I may charge a small fee to account for extra time. I typically walk up to 3 miles per dog, depending on their energy and comfort level. Meet & greets: Always recommended! Ensure your pet is safe and comfortable, even if you choose another sitter. Availability: Please note that I can’t provide 24/7 care. Pets should be okay being alone for up to 4 hours at a time. I only take on one household at a time, but I do occasionally have commitments that take me out of the home for a couple hours. Thank you for understanding!
Reviews


Thank you 💗

Highly recommend Zuri!


Zuri did an amazing job caring for our pets while we were away. She kept us updated everyday and sent a lot of photos. She was even flexible with watching additional pets on short notice. I highly recommend her!

Another great stay. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment
I care for each pet based on your instructions and what your pet needs to feel safe and comfortable. I always keep a close eye on things like pavement temperature and hydration, especially during walks, and I do my best to keep your pet’s space calm and stress-free while you're away.
Home
Information Zuri J. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about any behavioral quirks, triggers, or medical needs so I can offer the safest and most thoughtful care possible. What’s their daily routine like? Are there specific toys, treats, or commands they respond best to? The more I know, the better I can support your pet’s comfort and happiness.
A typical day
A typical day starts with a long morning walk and some playtime. In the afternoon, we might head out again for another walk or spend time playing indoors, depending on your pet’s energy. If your dog enjoys it, I’m happy to take them to a nearby park with your permission. I always try to follow your pet’s normal routine to keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible.

Availability
I prioritize the pets I’m actively sitting for, making sure they get plenty of attention, care, and long walks. While I have a few regular walks throughout the week, I intentionally keep my schedule light so I can focus on school and give each pet the time and energy they deserve. I love high-energy dogs and enjoy matching their enthusiasm with play, movement, and structure. My routine is flexible, and I plan my day around the needs of the pets in my care.
