User

This is the core entity that represents every person registered on PetSitter. It acts as a supertype for Admin/PetOwner/PetSitter so we can store the common attributes only in User.

Candidate keys:

• user_id - Primary key; numeric id, most efficient for indexing
• username - unique but not as efficient as user_id
• email - unique but not as efficient as user_id

Attributes:

• user_id - Numeric (Required, Unique, Auto-generated integer).

• username - Text (Required, Unique, 4-20 characters).

• first_name - Text (Required).

• last_name - Text (Required).

• password - Text (Required, Hashed format, Min. 8 characters).

• email - Text (Required, Unique, Standard email format).
