In one of Tom's post he writes:
"You could, however, deduct the cost of a dog leash or fence to keep your pet away from the children."

Could I take that a step further and write off the expense of a dog walker or dog daycare to keep my dog away from the dcks?

What about a house cleaner? I want to start having someone come clean either weekly or bi-weekly. How do you break this down for expenses? Also many house cleaners in my area are paid in cash, I assume I would need receipts but do I also need their social security # or proof they are legal to work, etc.?
