Tara Reid Set to Star in and Produce Comedy Series Based on Novel THE PET SITTER'S TALE
Tara Reid, known best for her roles in teen movies like Urban Legend and American Pie, is set to star and produce a series adaptation of The Pet Sitter’s Tale. Based on the short stories by Laura Vorreyer, the comedy series will be titled Walking In L.A.. The books are a collection of short stories about her love of pets from the time she was a young girl in growing up in Chicago to inadvertently becoming a professional pet sitter in L.A.
The logline reads:
Walking in LA follows the feel-good redemption story of magical-thinking protagonist Lucy who, fired from her dream job and dumped by her fiancé, moves on a whim to the City of Angels in search of something better. Upon landing in LA, Lucy discovers she’ll need “connections” to do just about anything, and that self-discovery and reinvention will take more than just hope and determination. Luck finds Lucy when a chance encounter with famous talk show host Angela Noble, played by Reid, sets off a comic and uplifting journey from fish-out-of-water dreamer to successful pet-walking entrepreneur extraordinaire. Based on Vorreyer’s life story and 20+ year career as a celebrity pet sitter, Walking in LA blends girl power comedy with fantastical reality, featuring cameos from celebrities and their pets as Lucy builds her star-studded roster of clients.
Reid has stayed busy over the years on various projects and many TV movies, but it’s been a while since I’ve seen her. This sounds like a fun project for anyone who loves animals. Does it sound like a series you might like to check out?
