Synopsis

Juliet's been in hiding. From her family, from her broken life, but most of all from the fact that Ben's not around anymore. Her mother Diane has run out of advice.

Before she knows it, Juliet realizes she has somehow become the town's unofficial pet-sitter. A job which makes her privy to the lives and secrets of everyone whose animals she's caring for.
