Things are getting tight for everyone... I work as a catsitter and dogwalker, through an agency, and have for about 4 years. Never high paid, but I did OK. Problem is, I'm getting the same rate as I was when I started. It seems I'm getting more work than when I started, but the money just doesn't go as far. I thought of suggesting to the agency boss we put the rates up, but I know we are already the 'premium' service in the area, and most charge less, so I don't think that would work.
Got to go visit some cats now...
