For multivariate division with remainder that takes the monomial ordering into account, you want to do
sage: f.reduce([g])
-y^2 + z
and you can obtain the quotient by
sage: (f - f.reduce([g])) // g
y
See the documentation of reduce().

See the documentation of reduce().
Edit: Actually this is inefficient because both can be computed simultaneously. The algorithm is simple. I don't know if it is included in Sage.
Also, the documentation of quo_rem() should refer to reduce().
