If you’re looking to earn extra income, for whatever reason (vacation, help with debt/bills, want to leave your job, etc.), check out these 9 ways to earn extra money on the side without needing to leave your 9-5.
Delivery/Driving Services
Uber and Lyft have been huge successes for people looking to add income. Uber reports an average income of $25/hr for their drivers. And Lyft reports are about the same.

That doesn’t take into account car expenses (payments, insurance, gas, etc), but even if it’s $15-20/hr, that’s not a bad side gig. Especially when you can log in and drive whenere you want.
Sell/Resell Online
Ebay. Poshmark. Mercari. Offer Up. Facebook Marketplace. All these places are selling platforms. Whether you are buying and selling items or selling your own old stuff. All you need is a couple pictures, a decent description, and a price.

There’s no average earnings with this option. You can make an extra $100 a month or a couple thousand a month.
It’s all in what and how much you list and the time you’re willing to put in. For some, this is a great part time job, and others this is their full time career
Create A Product
Food, crafts, clothing, etc.
Making something that someone wants to buy.
If you can cook, meal prep services are growing.
Creating a craft and selling it on Etsy is a grest option

Dog walking/sitting
Rover is a service that focuses on your pet. Dog walking, day care, home check ins, boarding and more.
Rover books you in the neighborhoods you want to work in and at the times you’re available.
You can make anywhere from $20-85/hr depending on your service
Food Delivery
Instacart, Door Dash, Uber Eats, etc.
Like Uber and Lyft, this has been a huge success for people looking to add income. It’s basically picking up food and dropping it off to people.
Some services are picking up food from restaurants or fast food chains and some services are actually going food shopping for customers and delivering the food.
Average pay for these are about $25, and lkke Uber/Lyft, you make your own schedule
