Refreshing and insightful, rich with humor and brimming with life, The Dog Walker is the story of Nina Shepard, Manhattan dog walker extraordinaire. With the keys to her clients' apartments, Nina has the freedom to cross several foyers and a moral boundary, and enter their lives...where she just might find the things that are missing in her own.
And so she falls in love with Daniel, a man she has never met but whom she thinks she knows from snooping around his apartment when she picks up Sid, his Weimaraner, for walks. But by the time each of them unleashes the truth about who the other really is--after all the mishaps, deception, and lost dogs--it's too late. Nina and Daniel will never be the same again.
The Dog Walker is the hilarious and heartwarming tale of a single woman's quest for fulfillment. It is about city living--any city, all cities--and the struggle to feel at home in the world. Finally, it is about life itself: unpredictable, bursting with love, and not to be missed.

"A clever, fresh slant on infatuation and love...made even better by lots and lots of dogs." -- Lauren Weisberger, author of The Devil Wears Prada
"Laugh-out-loud funny, poignant, and brilliantly observed. Schnur is a true original. Some day, readers of other authors will say, 'It's good, but it's no Schnur!'" -- Al Franken, author of Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them
"A warm-hearted, big-city fairytale about the things that matter most: dogs, friends, music, and falling in love." -- Jennifer Weiner, author of Good in Bed and In Her Shoes
"What a delightful, witty, warm, wise, funny, and stylish debut! Leslie Schnur's The Dog Walker is a winner." -- Harlan Coben, author of No Second Chance
"Imagine Julia Roberts in the movie walking eleven dogs on leashes (it could happen), and learn all about her love life. The book is a trip; it's breezy, it's wacky." -- Elmore Leonard, author of Mr. Paradise
Leslie Schnur was previously the editor-in-chief of Delacorte
Press/Dell Publishing. Raised in the San Francisco Bay Area and a
graduate of the University of California at Berkeley, she currently
