Become a Secret Agent

Do Secret Shopping
Spending the weekend shopping at stores already? Get paid to do that as a mystery shopper. You can get paid to shop and give feedback after you’re done.

Home Sitting
I always thought the concept of paying someone to watch your house when you go away was a bit odd. BUT it’s a well-paying gig (around $37/day) and requires you to watch over a person’s house, water some plants, and make sure there aren’t any robberies.
Want to give this a try? You can find jobs right here.
Pet Sitting
This isn’t so odd but it’s a needed job and perfect for a person who wants to make cash while watching an animal. Sure, watching a cat or dog can feel like hard work but what about watching someone’s pet spider? There are all different types of pets out there and people will pay you $2,000 a month.
Find pet sitting gigs here.
Farm Sitting
Recently, so many people have started small backyard flocks of chickens to larger farms but what do these people do when they need a break and want to get away?
If you like the idea of watching a property AND animals, post your info. here to be considered as a farm sitter.
