This is exactly why there are rules for prolonging durations.

"I'll animate a zombie for a month; I'm sure he'll be hacked to pieces long before then."

<a month passes>

"Wow, I didn't even realize how long old Freddie here has been around! Okay, guess I'll extend this another month. Wonder if he'll still be here."

Well, yes unless you have a way to do it that isn't via creation. If you use Control (move) spirit to summon a spirit which by its nature inhabits corpses, you get a zombie that stays around until that spirit leaves. This presumes the existence of such a spirit, of course. If the setting has infectious zombi-ism (or vampirism, or whatever) you could probably Control the infectious agent (the Control itself has a duration limit, of course, so after it wears off your new zombie is likely to wander off and eat the neighbors or something).
