#1 - PAWS: Gabby Gets it Together
Meet best friends Gabby, Priya, and Mindy. They’re different in just about every way, but they have a few important things in common: they’re in the same class, they absolutely love animals, and for various super-sad and unfair reasons, none of them can own any pets. Sob!
But, as luck would have it, it seems their neighborhood is in need of some afterschool dog-walkers. So, just like that, PAWS is born! However . . . it turns out running a business is harder than it looks, especially when their adorable pup clients all have such different needs - and the girls can't agree on how best to help them. When the girls' fighting leads to a doggo crisis, their friendship threatens to tear apart - can they get it together, and save the day?
#2 - PAWS: Mindy Makes Some Space
Best friends Mindy, Gabby, and Priya are back in business! After a few ups and downs, their dog-walking business is booming and the girls are closer than ever. It’s a dream come true!
But for Mindy, things at home are beginning to feel like a bit of a nightmare. Her mom just started dating someone, which has Mindy feeling like the odd one out.
Things only get worse when a new student named Hazel arrives in class and wants to join PAWS. Sharing her mom feels bad enough – there’s no way Mindy’s is going to share her best friends and her business, too! But when Mindy’s stubbornness starts to hurt everyone around her, will she be able to overcome her fears and learn that change doesn’t have to be a cat-tastrophe?

#4 - PAWS: Hazel Has Her Hands Full
Summer break is just around the corner, and the PAWS team are looking forward to kicking back and taking it easy . . . all except for Hazel.
When the opportunity to cat-sit two new fur babies arises, Hazel jumps at the chance. Their new client's house is even wheelchair accessible! But when everyone's hectic summer plans mean she would have to take on the job alone, Hazel knows her overprotective mother would never approve. On the other hand, managing this could prove that she’s more capable than her mom thinks . . . so maybe what she doesn’t know, won’t hurt . . . ?
But Hazel soon learns that juggling multiple cats and dogs along with her physical therapy – and keeping a big secret – is no easy task. When disaster strikes, can she make everything right by herself – or will she be forced to ask for help?
