This is the first of the Alice Nestleton Mysteries. Alice is an actress in New York, who makes her living by cat sitting. From Fantastic Fiction:

When Alice Nestleton, actress and sleuth, goes to a friend's Long Island estate to cat-sit, she comes face to bloody face with a corpse. Unwittingly, Alice has stepped into a deadly conspiracy plot of high-stakes horse-racing and seduction. Her curiosity might land her a whisker away from death.
