Five Great Jobs From Home
Doggy-Sitting
This is much easier than watching other people’s children, and can be pretty lucrative. If you love animals and don’t mind some extra cuddles, you can watch other peoples pets at your own house or theirs. Finding gigs is easy through websites such as DogVacay and Rover. You can also sign up to be a dog walker and get some exercise while making money at Wag.
Virtual Assistant
As companies grow and demands increase more and more, businesses are turning to virtual assistants instead of full time employees to help maintain daily office work. If you are super organized and have access to a phone, computer and internet, this can be a great way to make money. Look for virtual assistant freelance jobs on sites such as Upwork, FlexJobs and PeoplePerHour.
Website Tester
This is one of the best ways to earn money online. New websites are being created every day, and the need for people to test out the usability and function of the sites is growing. If you have access to a computer with internet, you can sign up to be a website tester. These opportunities do come at a first come first serve basis, so it’s best to register for multiple sites and stay on top of your emails. Try UserTesting, UserZoom and Userlytics to get started.
Customer Service Representative
If you are great on the phone and love helping people deal with issues such as tracking and placing orders or resolving conflicts, you can be a customer service rep from your own home. Typically companies ask you to block out at least 4 hours at a time to do this job, and both full time and part time positions are available. A staffing company who vets the businesses hiring is a good place to start—Arise, Alpine Access, VIPdesk, LiveOps and Convergys.
Transcriber
This job pays really well and hires people with little to no experience. All you have to do is listen to recordings of lectures, doctors notes or phone calls and type them out. Best part of this online job is that you make your own schedule. Most companies do give you a small test to check for speed and accuracy to start. Look for transcriber jobs at TranscribeAnywhere, TranscribeMe and Quicktate.
There are plenty of online jobs out there. Just make sure to look for legitimate opportunities and beware of scams or easy money making gimmicks.
