I Need Money Right Now – Try Babysitting

If you need cash quickly and you don’t have a criminal record one great option you could pursue is babysitting or watching children. Parents are willing to pay through their noses to get away from their children for a few hours. 

The normal rates for babysitting vary from $15 to $30 per hour depending on the number of kids you need to lookout for. If you can babysit for 20 hours per month you could earn up to $600 which would make a nice contribution to your income.

To show that you’re a credible candidate you could take babysitting courses along with health and First Aid. All these credentials would give parents the peace of mind to leave their children with you, they will also be prepared to pay more.

Pet Sitting

If you’re desperate for cash right now you could try pet sitting for wealthy pet owners. Wealthy people love to have a pet, when they fail to understand how much time and effort is needed to care for the pet they usually outsource all the responsibilities to other people. If you can offer a service which cares for the pet you should be able to make a lot of money. You can offer a pet sitting service, a grooming service and even exercise sessions to keep them fit and healthy.

More and more people are looking to House Sitters as a deterrent to crime and demand is outstripping supply. Normal house sitting rates start between $50 and $100 per day. If you need a place to stay and money then you could kill two birds with one stone.
