When a body is found in one of her clients\u2019 mansions, she can\u2019t help but get involved in the investigation.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Pet Sitter Mysteries<\/em> is based on the best-selling novels by Blaize and John Clement. It will be distributed exclusively by ZDF Studios.<\/p>\n<p>Yi Qiao, Director Drama at ZDF Studios, said: \u201cWe are delighted to be teaming up again with Sly Fox Productions and Julian Unthank to bring this book series to screen.<em> The Pet Sitter Mysteries<\/em> promises an irresistible combination of whodunits, romance and soul-searching along with an abundance of adorable pets, all set in a beautiful location.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Unthank, who is\u00a0the son of a world-famous animal handler and a former animal trainer himself in the film industry, added: \u201cFor years I&#8217;ve been looking for a chance to incorporate the knowledge of my former profession with the skills of my current one. So, you can imagine my excitement when I came across Blaize and John Clement\u2019s brilliant, best-selling Dixie Hemingway crime novels. Not only are they cleverly plotted with a whip-smart central character, but the murder mysteries are sharply written and surprisingly subversive, the perfect formula for a modern, off-beat detective series.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ZDF Studios and Sly Fox Productions have partnered to develop The Pet Sitter Mysteries, with writer and creator Julian Unthank (Queens of Mystery, Doc Martin) at the helm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":19545,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[7967,3062,4375,7968,7523,4932],"class_list":["post-19544","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-blaize-and-john-clement","tag-julian-unthank","tag-sly-fox-productions","tag-the-pet-sitter-mysteries","tag-yi-qiao","tag-zdf-studios","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>ZDF Studios &amp;
