Ottawa: Keep 90% of What You Earn on Lumo

Ottawa

You're Worth More Than You're Being Paid

Finding good work in Ottawa right now is harder than it should be. Whether you're between jobs, working part-time, or just tired of being underpaid, the truth is simple: the skills you already have—driving across town, caring for someone's dog, raking leaves, trimming hedges—are worth real money. Too many platforms take a huge cut and leave you with the scraps. That's not how it works on Lumo.

Lumo is recruiting 300 independent contractors in Ottawa who want to earn what their labor is actually worth. You keep 90% of what the customer pays. You get paid the same day. You choose which jobs to accept, and you set your own schedule. No commuting to someone else's shift. No manager looking over your shoulder. Just you, your skills, and fair pay.

Three Ways to Earn in Ottawa

Lumo has work that fits the skills you already have:

  • Delivery: Transport food, groceries, and packages across Ottawa by car, bike, or scooter. You decide which deliveries to take and when you're available.
  • Pet care: Dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits for neighbors who need reliable help while they're at work or away. Perfect if you love animals and want flexible hours.
  • Yard work: Mowing lawns, raking leaves, trimming hedges, and seasonal garden clean-ups. Ottawa's yards need care year-round, and homeowners will pay well for someone dependable.

You're not locked into one type of work—accept the jobs that make sense for your day.

A Bonus That Rewards Real Work

Complete your first 100 jobs on Lumo and you'll earn a loyalty bonus of 141 CAD (about $100 USD). It's our way of recognizing contractors who show up and do good work.

Ottawa residents deserve reliable help, and you deserve to be paid fairly for providing it. If you're ready to keep 90% of what you earn and finally work on your terms, apply to Lumo today.
