📖 The Hustle
Walk dogs for busy neighbors during the workday. Set a regular weekly schedule with 3-5 repeat clients within walking distance. Most owners pay $15-25 per 30-minute walk. Build a small route and stack walks back-to-back for maximum hourly earnings without driving across town.
🚀 First Step
Create a Rover profile with a friendly photo, set your walk radius to 1 mile, and post on Nextdoor that you are taking weekday walk clients.
🔑 Keys to Success
- Stack 2-3 walks per outing to earn $30-50 per hour
- Offer a free first walk to get reviews rolling
- Stick to a one-mile radius so you never waste time driving
