Earn money with animals: this article shows you 15 ways
Working with animals can be a great way to earn a little extra income. In some cases, you may even earn enough to quit your day job. So if you’re an animal lover looking to earn a little extra cash, consider the following 15 tips!
Tip 1: Offer to walk other people’s dogs: If you are looking to generate a little extra income, you can offer your services as a dog walker.
Tip 2: dog care: If people are going on vacation, offer to watch their dog.
Tip 3: cat sitter: One of our friends has set up cat cages (including running areas) to care for the cats when people are on vacation. It generates a nice side income and they can enjoy the company of other cats.
Tip 4: Wash and trim the animals: Offer your services as an animal groomer and you will earn a little extra income. Remember… word of mouth is the best form of advertising.
Tip 5: Become a pet driver: Many pet owners, especially the elderly, find it difficult to take their animals to the vet. You can help them out and earn some extra bucks by offering this service.
Tip 6: Become a yard cleaner: Many pet owners don’t like to pick up their pets’ messes. If you offer to clean up pet mess, you can earn quite a bit of money. Once you get going, you can set regular hours and schedules.
Tip 7: Register your pet with a modeling agency: You never know that your dog or cat (or other pet) could be the next big thing on the big screen, or at least in a supermarket catalog. You won’t know if you don’t try!
Tip 8: Cleaning the aquarium: People love fish, but not the hassle of cleaning their fish tank. This is where you come in. With a small amount of equipment (tank vacuum and some clean sponges) you can easily clean a fish tank. You can even take this to the next level by testing water and the like.
Tip 9: Raising rabbits or guinea pigs: There is still some money to be made from raising rabbits and guinea pigs. Do your research and determine which breeds are popular and suitable for your local area.
Tip 10 – Breed Mice: This is not for the faint of heart. There are many people who buy mice; unfortunately, they are usually used as food for snakes or other animals. So if you can handle this thought, find some proper perspectives and let your mice do the rest.
Tip 11: Breedfish: This takes a bit more time to set up, but can definitely be financially rewarding. Choosing fish with a higher retail value, as well as those that are fairly hardy and can handle a variety of aquatic environments, is generally a better option.
Tip 12 – Make Bird Seed Bars: These are relatively easy to make (look online for some ideas) and can be sold in markets.
Tip 13: Invest in Pet Stocks: Pet actions generally work quite well. If you see a company that consistently offers good products and is always in demand, see if you can invest in it.
Tip 14: Milk Animals: Yes, this is completely out of the box, but some people make a very good living extracting spider venom (one person has a basement full of 5000 spiders locked up securely, and with the help of carbon dioxide (to knock out the spider for a bit), milks the poison and then sells it to pharmaceutical laboratories.
Tip 15: Write an animal blog: If you are a person who is knowledgeable about a particular animal topic, set up a blog for free, write about specific topics and put Google AdSense on the site.
