I (22M) started a dog walking business in February 2023. At the time, this was perfect for me and was sustainable. However, the absurd rises in cost of living over the past year and a half has destroyed my income. The money I make from walking dogs now barely covers my expenses, leaving me unable to afford food outside of basics like rice and ramen as I also have a dog of my own to take care of. Unfortunately, the job market where I live is horrible, and I do not drive, so working outside of my city is not an option. If I stop walking dogs but fail to find a job immediately, I will probably lose my apartment. But on the other side of the coin, this isn't the sort of work I can just stop the moment I find a job, and I would need to give plenty of notice to avoid breach of contract with my customers. But like I said, if I failed to find a job during that notice period, I would likely lose my apartment. Has anyone ever been in a similar situation and has any advice? Sorry if I explained poorly. If anything needs clarifying, please let me know. Thank you :)
