Scooping poop for a living may not seem like a dream job. But Peter Hannon Jr. likes it just fine. “This is the kind of job I always needed to have. I can’t sit at a desk. I have to be out.” Hannon walks his clients’ dogs if they need it and also drives a pet taxi. “It started with the poop,” he said. “Most people aren’t going to want to clean up their own poop.” He has insurance designed for pet businesses and sanitizes his poop clearing equipment between jobs. “There’s nothing to it,” he said. “For the most part, the poop I get to is dried up and has lost its smell.”
