Her Dog’s Side Hustle Earns Her $680/Month

  • Therapy Facility Dog Owner
  • $680 monthly revenue

📝 DifferenceOk4275 writes

my golden retriever is just naturally calm and good with people

she passed her canine good citizen test like 2 years ago – mostly because my friend dared me to do it

A small outpatient therapy clinic spotted the dog through a local Facebook group. They needed a certified dog for session days. 🐶

Drop the dog off twice a week, pick her up a few hours later.

they pay me $85 per visit so around $680 a month

I keep a portion of it set aside separately and dont touch it – helps me stay on budget for her vet costs and food

The clinic handles liability insurance on their end 👀

she comes home tired and happy, i get a check

i get more requests than i can fulfill now, two other places have asked about her

The Canine Good Citizen test costs $20 to $85. Any calm, well-behaved dog can take it – no breed restrictions.

Your well-behaved dog might already be qualified 🤔
