TikTok User Mark (@financeunfolded) posted a eighth installment to her “Best Summer Side Hustles for Teens” series on the platform.

In this video, he shared an easy side gig for teens who want to make quick money while school is out.

Not only is it quick money, but you can earn up to $2,100 per month with this easy job.

All you need is a few supplies and about an hour to get started.

WHAT YOU NEED

Mark gave his followers the idea to start a dog washing business, and it only takes about $25 to get the necessary supplies.

This includes shampoo, a towel, a brush, and anything else that might be needed to bathe a dog.

The first thing you should do after that, according to Mark, is find a dog to wash.

To do this, the TikToker recommends sharing your new business on Facebook Groups and Craigslist to promote the services you offer.

Once you get your dog to wash, you can do everything from washing, rinsing, and drying in 40 minutes, according to the video.

After Mark’s quick research on pricing, he discovered that mobile grooming costs about $75 per dog and recommends that you charge the same.

I made $317 in just 1.5 hours from regular photos I took – and I didn’t even have to touch my phone

Using this price, washing just seven dogs per week, you can earn up to $525 per week.

That’s a whopping $2,100 a month just washing dogs.

MORE SIDE MONEY

In a surprising revelation, TikToker @samm.zia shared his unconventional strategy for earning a whopping $10,000 a month as a high school student.

Your secret? Knocking on doors in your neighborhood to offer house and car washing services.

Side hustles and tax implications

Extra income earned from side hustles may need to be reported to the IRS.

If you receive more than $600 in gross payments from a selling platform like eBay, the site will issue you a Form 1099-K to use on your tax return.

Individuals must calculate their adjusted gross income, taxable income, and deductions for the year.

Once they have this, they can use the 1040-ES form to calculate estimated taxes.

In a videoZia detailed her straightforward approach to this lucrative side gig.

“Literally any guy can do it. It doesn’t take that much skill,” he said, emphasizing the accessibility of his method.

His strategy involved visiting every house in the neighborhood, introducing himself and building relationships with residents, mentioning that he also lived nearby.

After establishing trust, Zia would entice homeowners with a seemingly generous offer: a $50 discount on her cleaning services.

This tactic aimed to make your services more attractive and increase the likelihood of acceptance.

The flexibility of running your own business was another advantage highlighted by Zia.

“That’s another cool thing about having your own business; you kind of decide when you want to work and how much you want to get paid per project,” he explained.

This autonomy allowed him to manage his schedule around school and other commitments, a significant advantage for a busy high school student.

At the end of the video, Zia encouraged his viewers to consider starting their own businesses at a young age, suggesting that it helped him shift from an “employee mindset” to one of independence and self-initiative.

Another TikToker managed to raise an impressive $8,400 per month simply by offering a trash can cleaning service in his community.

There is also an innovative Halloween-themed side hustle that has the potential to earn individuals a whopping $12,000 during the spooky season.
