    Okay, so my first answer would be no one because they don't have the same pet, but my next answer would be all the owners because they all eat the fish. In the riddle, there was nothing that said the owners don't eat the same food. Well, fish is a pet as well as food, so I guess they all own fish, and eat it??? I'm a little confused, but hopefully you make some since of it and bare with me. :-)

    Hope I helped. :-)
