Plot Summary
Maya Dolittle (Kyla Pratt) believes she does not need to go to college for seven years to become a vet. This is because she can talk to animals. One day, while walking with Lucky, her dog (voiced by Norm Macdonald), she helps a cat stuck in a tree by talking to it. Someone sees her special talent.
A Hollywood star named Tiffany Monaco (Tegan Moss) hears about Maya. Tiffany brings Maya to Los Angeles to help her small puppy. It turns out the puppy is a boy. Soon, Maya and Tiffany start their own TV show called The Animal Talkers. In Los Angeles, Maya also meets Brandon Booker (Brandon Jay McLaren), who becomes her love interest.
Maya soon realizes that the TV show is not really about helping animals. Because of this, she decides to go back home to study and become a real vet. She also finds out that Brandon is going to her school too! Meanwhile, Monkey (voiced by Phil Proctor) is in Los Angeles trying to become famous. But he quits his plans because he wants to help Maya.
