Pet caregiver: You will earn 5,000 yuan for cats on your doorstep for 7 days

As more and more people raise cats, when the owner is not at home, the "pet caregiver" who helps feed cats and shovel cats has also come into people's sight, and such a part-time job makes a good income.

htmlBeijing girl "Maoye Seven" (net name) is such a "pet teacher".

She introduced to China News Service that since September last year, she has worked as a pet nurse through a third-party platform (small program), mainly providing home-to-door basic services such as feeding and changing water for cats, cleaning tableware, shoveling and changing cat litter cat litter , and accompanying play. In addition, additional services such as nail cutting, foot hair shaving, eye and ear cleaning, and medicine feeding can be provided.

During the National Day holiday, many cats choose to travel, and pet trainers are also particularly popular at this time.

She said that for her the biggest peak season of the year is National Day and Spring Festival, and then other festivals. During the National Day holiday, she has at least 4 orders a day, and at most 8 orders she has to visit every day. She is expected to earn about 5,000 yuan in 7 days. During the Spring Festival, she visited 12 stores a day, earning more than 1,000 yuan a day. According to her statistics, she earned about 18,000 yuan in her first year of becoming a pet teacher.

How does pet custodian take orders? She said that the orders she received were mostly to find her through other platforms first, and then place an order on the mini program after communicating. However, there are also many orders placed independently during holidays.

She also summarized a set of workflow: every time she comes to feed her cat, she will bring her own mask, foot cover, disposable PV gloves, garbage bags and other tools, and record service videos. After the service is over, you must also check the status of the whole house to see if the cat food, water bowls, and litter box are full and whether the doors and windows are closed to ensure the safety of the cat.

"The inspection process is sorted out by yourself. The first problem may be because of inexperienced, so try to avoid it. The same problem cannot occur again." The part-time job of

also brought her a sense of accomplishment. She said that many owners say that their cat likes her very much. Some owners said that the cat at home was afraid of strangers, but when she went there, the cat came out to see her. "When I go there, I will pick me up at the door, so I'm very happy."

She introduced that some cat owners wanted her to go there after moving, but they could only refuse because they were too far away. In addition, she will also make her experience of feeding cats on her homepage into a vlog and post it on her social account.

Why does the cat like her very much? She believes, "First, maybe I raise a cat, and I have a cat smell; second, I am more careful, and I move in and out of the house very lightly and will not make big noises to scare the cat; the other is more spiritual. I think if you really love cats, cats will know."

What are the things that are more troublesome during feeding cats? She said that the needs of each cat are different, and each family is also different, so she has to write it down by herself. If you don’t know, you must ask the owner, and you need to be more meticulous.

As for the safety of feeding cats at home, she said that both parties actually have their own concerns and will evaluate what kind of person the other party is during the communication process, and will report to their family when they come to the door.

is it possible to switch to full-time in the future? She said, "I don't know, but I think it's very likely not."

Rental bridesmaids: Feel the wedding and make extra money

National Day and other holidays are the peak seasons of weddings. Many young people also choose to become a "rental bridesmaid" or "rental groomsmen" during this period to earn extra money.

Currently, "rental bridesmaids" can be found on multiple platforms. At the same time, there are apps specifically for matching needs on the market. The cost of renting bridesmaids is generally several hundred yuan due to regional differences, and will be paid in a deposit + final payment. Compared to renting bridesmaids, renting groomsmen seems to be relatively rare.

Rental bridesmaids will introduce their situation on the platform, "The appearance is ordinary, but it won't steal the limelight from the bride", "The personality is good, everything depends on your needs", and "Being a bride's flower protector" are all common descriptions. They usually also indicate whether they can drink alcohol, and emphasize that they "do not accept marriage disputes."

just put an order on the platform and wanted to be a "bridesmaid for rent" during the National Day period. Kelly (pseudonym), who said to China News Service that as a bridesmaid for rent, you can earn some extra money, expand your horizons, meet the world, and see people at different weddings. "It's quite meaningful to see different people get married. And when you look at different weddings, you will know what you want in the future."

Xiao Xie, who just worked as a bridesmaid for rent during the National Day holiday, said that he became a bridesmaid for rent through a friend's introduction. He has been a bridesmaid for rent twice. He mainly wants to make money to subsidize his family and treat it as a job.

She also encountered interesting experiences at the wedding, "A bride sang at the wedding, she was moved and shed tears, and she found it very interesting."

Li Liang (pseudonym) is a wedding worker. He will also work part-time to help some "bridesmaids and groomsmen for rent". He remembered that about two years ago, a client bride asked him tentatively if there was a suitable "professional bridesmaid" to introduce.

"That client got married a little late, and almost all his friends were married, and he couldn't find a suitable candidate. He also felt that instead of finding a friend who was not close, there would be a more 'professional' person to help." Li Liang said that he also tried to find a girl who was more familiar with the wedding process to help. Fortunately, the whole process was very pleasant, and the reward for the bridesmaid was 200 yuan.

Nowadays, there are more and more customers who are "renting bridesmaids" through Li Liang. "First of all, the brides think renting bridesmaids is very cost-effective. Including the cost of booking a room for bridesmaids, souvenirs, and red envelopes for doors, it will cost about a thousand yuan; the price of renting bridesmaids is basically below 500 yuan, and the red envelopes for doors will generally be refunded."

"Secondly, because 'professional bridesmaids' are experienced and are very good at playing games and setting off the atmosphere. Now there are 'professional groomsmen's best men', so there is no need to worry about unpleasant things such as weddings." Li Liang said.

But Li Liang also said that he has a principle that unless the bride takes the initiative to propose, he will not first suggest that the bride rents bridesmaids. "It would be best if you have your own friends to be bridesmaids. Now my clients are mainly brides who are late marriages or bridesmaids who cannot come to the scene due to special circumstances such as the epidemic."

Wedding makeup artist: Get up at 4 o'clock, you can earn 1,200 yuan per order

In the peak season of weddings that are waiting for National Day, there are also business opportunities for young people with makeup skills.

Now you can also search for many wedding makeup artists on the platform. They usually show off their "proud works" to prove their strength, and at the same time give detailed quotes, such as early makeup (leave after putting on it), half-day makeup or full-day makeup.

sometimes it is not easy to put on makeup. Xiao Cen, who worked as a wedding makeup artist during the National Day holiday, told China News Service, "If you put on makeup, you can earn 1,200 yuan per order. It's just too hard. You have to get up at around 4 a.m.."

In order to combine work and rest, Xiao Cen only took over two orders and turned down the rest. Even so, the extra money earned is enough for Xiao Cen to be "happy for a month".
