Kids Business Idea: Doggie Doo-Doo Clean Up

One of the ways for kids to make money is to start a Doggie Doo-Doo Clean Up Business.

I know, I know! The idea sounds kind of disgusting. But that is exactly the reason that it is a good way to make money!

The way it works is that you start by contacting pet owners in your neighborhood and asking them if they would like to have a regularly scheduled (usually 1-2 times a week) Doggie Doo-Doo Clean Up.

If so, agree on a price for your service, when you should be paid, etc. Then, at the scheduled time, you go to the person's house and pick up the doggie doo.

Please be sure to have the pet owner put the pet away when you are working, use an effective scooper, dispose of the waste properly (and wash your hands when you're done).

If you want to be environmentally friendly, you can get a doggie poo septic tank from most major pet store websites, which will allow you to tell your customers that the poop you scoop is disposed of in a sanitary, non-toxic facility.

Also, make sure your parents/guardians know the people you would be working for.

Have fun!
