Best Odd Job Apps for Local Jobs
1. Rover
When homeowners travel, it opens up an opportunity to come by and take care of their animals.

To set up shop, try Rover.com . Several Side Hustle Nation readers report earning  $1000 a month watching other people’s pets !
This gig app is perfect for pet lovers who don’t mind some extra furry friends around.
2. TaskRabbit
TaskRabbit is the original odd jobs app. You can create a profile specializing in:

running local errands
assembling furniture
local temp help
event staffing
cooking
photography
TV mounting
virtual support jobs
and lots more


Rates vary widely based on what service you’re providing, but I’ve seen tasks anywhere from $15 an hour all the way up to $100+ for specialized skills.
3. Thumbtack
Thumbtack has a range of services, including categories like:

home repair
wedding photography
lessons
and lots more

As a service provider, you can set your rates, but you do have to pay Thumbtack for every lead you get through the platform.
Respond to requests quickly, price competitively, and gather reviews to book jobs and boost your profile.
4. Angi Services
Earn up to $22 an hour as a cleaner or up to $45 as a handyperson through the Angi Services (formerly Handy) app.

According to their website, top pros are taking home more than $1000 a week. If you’re skilled in painting, plumbing, electrical work, or cleaning with a friendly service attitude, this is an interesting side hustle job app.
5. TaskEasy
TaskEasy is an app for lawn-care service providers.
You can sign up as a contractor for mowing, trimming, weeding, and more. The app takes care of all scheduling and payments — you pick your schedule and they line up the jobs.

6. YourMechanic
If you’re comfortable fixing cars, check out YourMechanic.com , which helps match you with customers in need of car repairs — and pays up to $70 an hour.
For example, Matt Bochnak of Chicago started fixing motorcycles in his garage to earn extra money. It was a good gig, but it became a great one when he started filming his repairs and putting the videos online.
Eventually, Matt turned this classic blue collar business idea  into a $20k a month online business .

7. Sharetown
Not many people know about Sharetown , but I’ve connected with side hustlers earning $3,000+ a month with this app.

Sharetown matches you up with gently-used mattress and furniture returns from direct-to-consumer brands.
Since the items aren’t new, the companies can’t really take them back and resell them — but you can. The Sharetown reps I’ve connected with report earning  $150-250 per item.
And the cool part is the inventory doesn’t cost you anything until it sells.
But you can’t just download the app and get started. You have to apply first to make sure the company needs additional reps in your area.
Check out our full  Sharetown review to learn more about how it works.

8. Delivery and Rideshare Apps
You’ve heard of “ driving for dollars ” with services like Uber and Lyft , and it doesn’t get much simpler than this. One Lyft driver of mine on a recent trip put it this way: “When I want to make money, I turn on the app.”
In fact, these “gig economy” apps have helped create a multi-hundred billion dollar a year industry . Here are some options to get your piece of the pie:

Instacart  – Enjoy weekly payouts and a flexible schedule. Check out our full Instacart Shopper review here , with insights from a side hustler earning an extra $450-500 a week.
DoorDash   – Earn up to $25 an hour  as a food delivery driver for. For more, here’s our full DoorDash review .
Uber Eats – Make local takeout deliveries in your town with and earn up $25 an hour doing so.
Shipt – Drivers can earn up to $22 an hour shopping for and delivering fresh food and household essentials.











Pros: Easy to get started



No marketing or sales required



Can earn money quickly










Cons: Limited earning power



Wear and tear on your vehicle



Income may be inconsistent

DoorDash Sign Up











If you choose any of these driving-related side hustles, it might make sense to tack on an app like Hurdlr to automatically track your mileage, expenses, income streams, and tax deductions in real-time. On average, Hurdlr helps users find $5600 in deductions!
9. Dolly
If you have a truck or van — and a strong back — you can earn $50 an hour with Dolly’s   peer-to-peer moving platform. (Or around $35 an hour if you’re not providing a vehicle.)
10. Bellhop
Bellhop is similar to Dolly, but sets earning expectations lower at $21 per hour. (Not including tips and bonuses.)

Still, nothing’s stopping you from joining both services to fill out your schedule to earn more money.
And like Dolly, you find and accept jobs that work for your time schedule. In other words: it’s an easy side hustle if you don’t mind a bit of heavy lifting.
