Pet Store Mystery Series & Pet Sitting Mystery Series….
Still continuing with the authors from my lists… I have two authors who specialize in Mystery Series with a Pet Sitting Theme:
Blaize Clement is a psychologist who writes a mystery series that is set in Florida which features Dixie Hemingway. Dixie gave up her job as a deputy sheriff and now confines her sleuthing to the "cozy type" while she pet-sits as a profession.
The Petsitter Mystery Series is written by a contract lawyer who absolutely loves animals… Linda O. Johnston. Her petsitter happens to also be a lawyer, with a darling little Cavalier King Charles Spaniel by the name of Lexie who brings her much joy. (I'm a little partial to those sweetie-pie dogs… as my mother has one who she absolutely loves.)
Now, on to the Mystery Series with a Pet Store Theme. I have one author from my lists who fall in this category:
Barbara Block is also known as Isis Crawford, and vice versa. But, it is as Barbara Block that she writes the Robin Light Mystery Series, which features a pet store owner who has a nose for solving mysteries.
Lydia Adamson writes three series, one of which features Alice Nestleton… actress and occassional cat-sitter.
(Can you tell that I love dogs? I refer to them in the "who" not the "that"… I'm the same with cats!)

Anne,
I just wrote a blog about authors who have equestrian mysteries. I hope that it gives you some authors who you enjoy!
