How to Find Jobs for Kids Under 16

Determine whether or not your state requires teens to have working papers to begin employment. Your child's school counselor can help you find out and also provide you with the necessary paperwork, if need be.
Learn the types of jobs that 14 and 15 year olds can legally perform, and seek out those part-time positions first. According to U.S. Department of Labor regulations, children ages 14 and 15 can work in retail occupations, intellectual or creative work such as tutoring or playing an instrument, non-vehicular delivery work, yard work, food service work and light manual labor, to name a few options.
Check the daily newspaper and online job listing sites to search for appropriate part-time work.
Take your child around your town to seek out appropriate positions that might not be advertised. Visit mall vendors to see if anyone is hiring, stop in at local gas stations to inquire about part-time work or check with restaurants to find out if help is wanted.
Have your teen check with friends, teachers, family members, neighbors or other trusted individuals to see if anyone knows of a job opportunity or can provide a potential job lead.
Consider encouraging your child to self-advertise any special skills or abilities that might help him earn money through work. If your teen is good at doing the yard work, for example, it might pay off for him to advertise his services in a local newspaper or go around the neighborhood with homemade flyers advertising his services, weekend hours and pay rate. If your daughter excels at a certain subject or is good with younger children, she might be able to arrange a paid tutoring or babysitting schedule with parents from your community. Pet walking, car washing and errand services can also become appropriate, paid job opportunities for young teens.

How to Make Big Money With Animals

Responsibly breed dogs or other pets. Breeding animals is a high-paying job, especially with pure-bred dogs. By owning two dogs of the opposite sex that are officially recognized as a pure bred (American Kennel Club), and breeding and taking care of the animals, you can sell the puppies for a high-dollar price.
Sell pet supplies and medications. Find a company that you can join to sell pet supplies and apply to be the delivery person. Often times, the pet supplies seller will visit specific homes to help the pet owners with their new products.
Start a pet entertainment business. This may be starting a pet photography business by being a photographer who advertises your special care with animals, or running a show with talented animals by taking them to birthday parties or other gathering events. The entertainment business can produce a lot of money, as long as it is done legally.
Start an obedience training business. Become well rounded in pet obedience and get an obedience license. Go to local pet stores near you and apply to be their new obedience counselor, or start a private business of your own. Pet obedience school is a pricey program that people are willing to pay for their pets.
Work at a zoo or animal specific viewing center, like an aquarium or exotic bird viewing area. These places give you the chance to work with wild animals and learn about their habits and environment. Zoo keepers and specialists make a large salary to work with these amazing and somewhat dangerous animals. You may need a zoology degree to be in this field of work.
