includedClass Experience
This course offers an immersive and specialized learning experience tailored specifically for those interested in pet care services such as dog walking, pet sitting, and grooming. Through a series of detailed video lessons, students will explore the essential skills and knowledge needed for each service, supported by real-life case studies from successful pet care professionals. Ultimately, I present these side hustles to students in middle and high school for 3 reasons: 1) The best way to learn about financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and business is to ACTUALLY have a means to make money. 2) I started dozens of side hustles during my teenage years, and learned alot about my passions, hobbies, interests, etc. and developed positive character traits that still serve me to this day. 3) These side hustles can be fun and a positive way for students to spend their free time.
