When it comes to a career, the best option is always to do what you love. Jackie Samuel loves snuggling. So the 29-year-old from the Rochester, New York-area has started a business called The Snuggery in which clients pay her $60 an hour for a relaxing session of cuddling.

And, no, “snuggling” isn’t a code word for something more nefarious. Sexual contact is strictly forbidden and all clothes stay on.

“This is not about sex, and I’m really straightforward about that,” she explains. To make sure none of her clients get out of line Samuel always has a friend or family member nearby during the session.

“It tends to be pretty improvisational,” Samuel said of her professional snuggling technique. “There are different kinds of cuddling positions, but I typically always start out spooning and I am pretty small, so usually I’m the little spoon.”

Samuel started The Snuggery last month. She has a few clients, but not enough yet to quit her other job as a real estate agent.
