After completing the training and certification to become a notary, all kinds of opportunities will open to you. By taking this step, you have an advantage as you apply for a position at a bank, as an exam proctor, administrative assistant or even a personal concierge.
6. Driver
If you have a reliable car, you can earn money by driving. Consider working for a rideshare company like Lyft or Uber. Perhaps you don’t want to deal with back-seat passengers, then delivering food orders might be best for you.

If you love animals, this could be a perfect position for you. You could be employed in an established kennel, care for the pets in your own home or the residence of the pet owner. Travelers would love for their pets to be cared for in their own homes while they are out of town.

The exciting thing about part-time employment is that you still have time in your week for other activities. Have fun earning money in a way that you can enjoy.
