Premise
The show's titular protagonist is a smart Canadian 6-year old girl named Zoey McMullen, who is the only human citizen in Theodore Street, a town populated with talking anthropomorphic animals. Her friends are a teenage jackalope named Jackie, a huge bumbling elephant named Melissa and a coyote named Conrad.

Main characters

 * Zoey McMullen (voiced by Selena Gomez; occasionally by Demi Lovato): The main protagonist of the show and also the only human character. She is a 6-year old Canadian who lives in Theodore Street, and is quite smart for her age. Her body design is recognizably identical to The Powerpuff Girls, characters also created by Craig McCracken. She has black hair with a ponytail, one red eye and one green eye, an indigo short sleeved t-shirt and red sneakers. There are instances throughout the show that hint her Canadian heritage, such as occasionally ending sentences with "eh" and her favorite food being pancakes with maple syrup. Her parents are never seen or heard of in the show.
 * Jackie Jackalope (voiced by Benjamin Diskin): A 16-year old jackalope who is Zoey's closest friend. He wears only a black jacket. He behaves like a stereotypical teenager; skateboarding, eating pizza, listening to hip-hop music, etc. That being said, he still cares about Zoey and her other friends. He mentions his father on rare times throughout the series, who, like Zoey's parents, is never seen.
 * Melissa Trumpets (voiced by Mary Tyler Moore): A large 36-year old elephant who is one of Zoey's friends. She wears a pink polo shirt and denim pants. She is often clumsy and bumbling, which tends her to accidentally hurt her friends, mostly by sitting on them; Zoey being her most unfortunate victim. In spite of all these, she is still a nice woman elephant.
 * Conrad Howlington (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker): A 25-year old coyote who is another friend of Zoey's. He wears a white tank top and black pants. He works a night job as a disc jockey at the Theodore Street Club. At home, he does stereotypical adult things like watching TV, doing housework, etc.

Supporting characters

 * Dr. Slithers (voiced by Tom Kenny): A rattlesnake scientist who works at the Theodore Laboratories. Much like The Powerpuff Girls character Sanford "Snake" Ingleberry, he hisses on the letter "s" every time he says a word containing that letter. He speaks with a German accent.
 * Mr. Nutmeg (voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson): A tall, anthropomorphic human-sized squirrel who works as the news anchorman of Theodore Street.
 * Annieconda Slithers (voiced by Tara Strong): Dr. Slithers' wife who, as her name suggests, is an anaconda. She loves her husband dearly, often giving him ideas for inventions. She is also on good terms with Zoey and her friends too.

Trivia

 * This is Craig McCracken's first show for Disney, the second being Wander Over Yonder.
 * Zoey's body design is identical to Craig McCracken's other creations, The Powerpuff Girls. This led to some people arguing whether she is a PPG ripoff or really a Craig McCracken creation.
 * The show shares a similar art and animation style with Cartoon Network's The Powerpuff Girls and Nickelodeon's My Life as A Teenage Robot, given that both PPG and ZM were created by Craig McCracken. Episodes animated by Rough Draft tend to show this, while Toon City-animated episodes are slightly more fluid.
 * This show is considered more sillier compared to Craig McCracken's other shows due to occasional use of surreal humor. This is mostly noticeable in episodes directed by Timothy Björklund.
