[edit] Cast
[edit] Main cast
- Sara Paxton - Darcy Fields
Darcy is the main character in the show. She loves fashion and doesn't know too much about nature until she moves to what she calls "the middle of nowhere". She was born in a parking lot of her mother's movie premiere.
- Natalie Radford - Victoria Fields
Before Darcy,Victoria was a famous actress. She owns a farm house where she and Darcy live. She is Darcy's mother.
- Andrew Chalmers - Jack Adams
Jack is Lindsay's little brother. He craves to be famous and always tries to do something either to get money or fame.
- Kerry Michael Saxena - Eli
Eli is a sweet, clumsy boy, whom Lindsay likes. He works for Victoria and knows a lot about animals. He is always in some sticky situation.
- Shannon Collis - Lindsay Adams
Lindsay is a hard-working girl that works in her dad's vet/pet shop. She is the older sister of Jack. She has a crush on Eli ("Nature vs. Nurture"), and she dated Tyler in the episode,"My Fair Lindsay".
- Kevin Symons - Dr. Kevin Adams
Kevin is a vet at his shop, Critter Comforts (a play on the phrase creature comforts meaning basic neads for survival) . He is not that bright, but is like a dad to Darcy. He often tells disturbing stories, particularly about bad incidents with gourmet food, which can annoy Darcy.
- Melanie Leishman - Kathi Giraldi
One of Darcy's best friends. She is naive and doesn't always stand up for herself. She is bubbly and often rambles on about random subjects. She apparently has a 'banjo-shaped' birth mark on her left shoulder, though it is never seen.
