Zoe’s Barkery & Kitchen was born from love—love for my own pups. Our oldest, Zoe, has suffered from ear infections since I brought her home at 8 weeks old. Now, 8 years old, Zoe is nearly blind as a result of a genetic pre-disposition. When she was 4, and wanting to give her the best food I could, I ordered from a national human-grade dog food company, and within two weeks Zoe broke out hot spots so bad we landed in the ER right before Christmas - all to do with the supposed superior food this company represented. This led me on a mission to take control of my dog's health and nutrition.
Now, we have added two more Labs to the Pack, and the youngest suffers from a terrible skin allergy. We see first-hand how the right diet transformed our own dogs’ health, energy, coat, allergy severity, and overall wellness. I completely understand the challenges (and frustrations!) of finding quality dog nutrition where you can trust that the food is fresh, safe, and transparent. My experiences on my dogs' health journeys inspired me to consult with animal experts, descend into rabbit holes of research, and ultimately experiment recipes until I found wholesome, nutritious and dog-tested deliciousness, built on fresh proteins, vibrant vegetables, and functional superfoods—all tailored to support healthy aging, mobility, digestion, and everyday vitality.
What started in our family kitchen, preparing fresh meals for our three Labs, quickly grew into a mission: to bring human-grade, nutrient-rich food to dogs across the Valley, that families can feel good about.
At Zoe’s Barkery & Kitchen, our mission is simple:
To support the health, wellness and longevity of our dogs, through quality nutrition, trust and transparency.
We’re not just another pet food company. We’re dog parents, just like you, who know the joy of watching a pup thrive. Every bowl we prepare is a reflection of our passion for nutrition, community, and the unbreakable bond of love between humans and their pets.
Before following my passion for canine wellness, I spent over 20 years leading global teams in the technology and consulting world, building strategies, mentoring leaders, and helping companies grow. That experience gave me the skills to juggle complex projects, manage details with precision, and always deliver on promises — qualities I now pour into creating food and relationships that pet parents can truly trust.
Zoe’s Barkery was inspired by my own pack of Labs, whose health and happiness drive everything I do. With a blend of business know-how, science-backed nutrition, and a whole lot of love, I set out to make meals that help dogs thrive at every age.
At the end of the day, I’m not just a business owner — I’m a fellow dog parent who knows the joy of tail wags, muddy paws, and unconditional love. And I believe every pup deserves food that’s as fresh, nourishing, and trustworthy as the people who love them.
