As t he kids grew up and moved out on their own, my wife and I began traveling a lot and so could no longer be "tied" down by having to care for pets. We also never wanted to have to board them in a vet's hospital. So the bonus to me in my piano tuning career, is that I get to visit all these homes with dogs (and sometimes cats). I can play with them,and like Grandchildren, can then leave without having any responsibilities. I like that part a lot. I wish there was a "Rent-A-Pet" company out there somewhere so that you could rent a pet for a weekend, and then just turn them back in-no responsibilites. So the piano business gives me that little extra bonus- in addition to meeting the wonderful people with whom you come in contact. Just another thought.
