If you have a love for plants and the environment, this work at home job may be the answer to your dreams come true. I will give you some ideas and steps to becoming the best plant caretaker in your home town. This article may help guide you to making a good income from home.

In a nutshell, a plant caretaker is someone who will visit local businesses, offices, small mom and pop stores or your client’s homes and take care of their plants for a small fee. If you love plants, you probably already have a good knowledge base of what each plant’s name is and how they grow and in what environment they can survive in. You will need to know what plants can survive in shady areas or sunny areas. You can research the internet and study the specific plants that thrive well in offices. Here is an example of some plants that do well in doctor’s offices. I did a search and typed in “hardy office plants.” Here are a few: Ficus Benjamina, Dracaenas, Aglaonema. It’s important to learn their names and how to take care of them such as watering schedule, humidity and shade or sunny areas. Most office plants do well in indirect sunlight areas.

After you have thoroughly researched your plants, it’s time to share your knowledge with others and sell your service. You will need to come up with a plan on how your service will be provided. If you are going to go into client’s homes and just care for existing plants, then you can offer to come in twice per week and clean up the dead foliage and water as needed. You could get paid per week or by the month. Make sure you count for your time and gas to and from your client’s home. You could create a nice flyer offering to your clients all the details of your service and leave these flyers in your neighborhood.

The next idea is a very lucrative way of taking this working from home job a step further. You can purchase 10-15 nice indoor plants and go visit local offices in your area. Talk to them about setting up your new plant caretaker service in their office. You will visit weekly and keep your plants watered and cleaned up for a monthly fee. They will never have to buy any of the plants. You will provide that for them. You could easily charge up to $50 per month if you personalize it with specialty plants or different varieties during the holiday season. With just a few accounts under your belt, you could be quickly earning a nice income from home in one of the easiest working from home jobs around.
