Personal Training
For people with successful exercise routines that are willing to help others achieve fitness goals, becoming a personal trainer should be a no-brainer. If you know a thing or two about how to keep fit, staying active, and motivating others then this might be the perfect side gig for you.
Personal training might be more difficult during a global pandemic, but you can still give classes online. Luckily, it’s a pretty flexible side gig that you could easily incorporate around your own workout routine.
Personal trainers make an average of $20.55 per hour, so you could earn $500 in just 9 ½ hours.
Pet Sit
Who could say no to taking care of furry friends? While this may sound like the perfect job for a teenager, there’s no reason you shouldn’t go out there looking for pet-sitting opportunities too. Trust us, there are plenty out there. Since more and more Americans have less time and they’re less inclined to leave their pets alone, finding a few gigs around your neighborhood will be easy.
There are plenty of websites and Facebook groups made for this exact reason, so start looking for those aimed at your community right now. The more clients you get the bigger your reputation will become, so finding extra work will become easier.
With some pet sitters getting paid between $10 and $20 an hour, you would need between 25 and 50 hours to earn $500.
