This guy David is making over $1.6 million a year by renting out people's backyards. He and his girlfriend Rebecca were big dog lovers, but their dogs, they were just too dangerous for dog parks and just too crazy to walk on leashes. So one night, Rebecca texted him, I wish there was an app that let me find places that dogs can run off leash. That's when it clicked for David. And he realized that millions of people have unused backyards that would be perfect for dogs. So he built a website where homeowners could list their yards and dog owners while they could rent them out. Kind of like Airbnb, but for dogs. And he called it sniff sp. It became a massive success. Today, over 100,000 dog owners use Nif Spot, where they get a convenient, safe space for their dogs to run around. And David, well, now he's a millionaire. And it's proof that you can make a legit business with only a laptop and property that you don't even own.
