RentAFriend is a site where you make a profile and rent out your services as a friend…

I was paid to be a dance partner for a guy trying to practice dancing for his degree program, I was paid to wait in line, I was paid to watch pets, I was paid to walk pets, I was paid to be a friend for a guy attending a local drag car museum, I was paid to go to school reunions with people, I was paid to go to dances, I was paid to go hiking/ walking with people, I was paid to do some language tutoring for people, and much more!

My rates were reasonable at $10.00/ hour, and most jobs lasted several hours, so I could easily make $70.00 per outing. Not bad for basically just hanging out with people all day.

Rent a Friend is a legit site and apparently $10/hour is the minimum rate you can set on there.

Nick Loper reports that you can earn up to $50/hour 💰 but don’t expect the gigs to be consistent.
