Who's Publishing What: The Dog Sitter

The Dog Sitter

Eva Lesko Natiello’s new book, The Dog Sitter (Fine Line Publishing), is a wry, feel-good romp about a woman whose life has gone sideways, forcing her to take a 30-day dog sitting job in New York City despite not being a dog person (or a people person, frankly).

It’s an irreverent and insightful story about starting over.

Leah Tran of the Manhattan Book Review praises the book’s “razor-sharp observations, laugh-out-loud moments and surprising heart.”

Natiello, who has taught at the Erma Bombeck Writers’ Workshop, is an award-winning New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of psychological thrillers, The Memory Box and Following You. The Memory Box, her debut novel, is a global bestseller and has been translated into multiple languages.

Her articles and essays have appeared in the HuffPost, New Jersey Monthly, Martha’s Vineyard Magazine, Medium and other outlets.

She assists authors with publishing and marketing their books. A former vice president of global communications for Estee Lauder Inc., she coaches authors on how to self-publish their books, increase their book’s visibility and expand their readership.
