The children loved the animal show that Mobile Zoo performed at our school. The handlers were kind and patient and very knowledgeable about all the animals they displayed. I am very pleased with Mobile Zoo an look forward to having them come to our school many more times.

May 11, 2017Kids loved it!
My daughter turned 8 and wanted a animal show where she could hold and pet some cuddly creatures. MobileZoo did an amazing job. She showed up on time and left no mess. The presenter was the owner and she was wonderful with both the animals and the kids. She brought out 9 different animals- a beautiful bird, bunny, chinchilla, hedgehog, guinea pig, bearded dragon, tortoise, snake, spider, iguana, and one more I think! Would totally hire them again.

February 23, 2026The Best Mobile Petting Zoo
We had an amazing experience. Daniel was kind, fun, quick in his set up, and very knowledgeable about the animals. We had a wonderful time getting to know each of the animals and learning their story. The kids in our family, ages 2 up to 16, enjoyed visiting, holding and feeding the animals. Thanks for everything!
