I have known Zoe for 7 years now and have seen her care for her own dog as if it were a human. Her family dog was in her care the majority of the time, and she made sure he was always happy. I would trust her with my dogs, as needy as they are. She will be a great dog walker or sitter!

Zoë is a sweet, responsible and caring human being, an honors graduate of Skidmore College who, before switching to music, studied psychology, working in the college’s child care center with toddlers. She’s intuitive and a quick thinker, great at improvising whether in her music or encountering a real-life problem. She’s a leader who is kind, that rare person to whom others are drawn because she radiates confidence, calming warmth and intelligence. The same is true of dogs: She loves them, and they sense that, which allows her to play with them or lead them easily. Her lone tattoo, Tiger, is the name of her beloved Maltese, who she loved and helped care for all his life, from when she got him when he was three months old until he died a few months short of 17 years. I’d want her on my raft boat, especially if we had dogs with us.
