Marty McGuire really has her hands full this time — with a lazy boa, a hyper hamster, and a potty-mouthed parrot! Is her pet sitting business about to go OUT of business?

After visiting a sanctuary for retired lab chimpanzees, Marty wants to follow in the footsteps of her idol Jane Goodall and help with their care. But "adopting a chimp" is expensive, so Marty and her third-grade pals hatch a plan to raise money by holding a talent show at school and opening a pet-sitting business in Marty's basement. It turns out that each pet has a personality of its own, and wrangling them is much harder than Marty expected. How will Marty keep her latest great idea from going to the dogs?

      Marty and her friends launch a pet-sitting business to raise money for freed laboratory chimps, but the pets prove more challenging than anticipated. Meanwhile, her class prepares a talent show. Likable characters; realistic yet quirky school and family scenes; and clever, age-appropriate language create a welcoming school story with a twist. Floca's cheerful black-and-white illustrations offer literal interpretations of the action.
