Spending my entire life savings! I am currently away studying abroad and will have zero dollars left when I return. I have the option of working at a camp for two months this summer. I could make up to 2000 dollars, have no expenses, and have a day off each week along with 2 hours off each day. Sounds like a good deal, right? The only things holding me back are that I'll already have been away from my friends, family, and boyfriend for five months, I'm moving into a house in august and will need to plan for that, and my family may be getting a puppy and I would miss being there while it's small (a little silly, I know). I'm considering putting out a flyer in my neighborhood and in the surrounding area to let families know I'm available to babysit/petsit/tutor, but I'm afraid I won't find any work. What should I do? What would you do?

I've gone away to work in isolated situations for 4 months at a time. It's some of the most fun I've ever had. You get to spend time with new people, be independent and break out of your comfort zone.
I know it's hard being away from loved ones, but the time goes so fast you wouldn't believe it. Most of these places also have internet or phone, so you can keep in touch with the people at home. So yes, I would definitely recommend it. ]
