[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Presumably they're picking your kid because you're a neighbor and the kid can walk over easily do the job. So rates on Google -- which probably assume that an adult needs to drive over -- will be of limited utility. [/quote]

Why would that make a difference?  You are paying to have the same job done regardless.  Just because it is easier for one person to do it than another does not change the value of the work being done.[/quote]

NP and easier here equates to fewer hours.  In the same context try hiring a handyman that's farther away vs one that's close.  The closer one will likely offer better prices because they are spending less time + gas in transit to the job site.  Agree with the other poster that there is some discount to be applied based upon the level of experience.  I think $50 - $75 a night is a fair range depending in the number of times dog needs to be walked per day.  I assume teen does not need to stay there all day, just at night.  If you require their entire day the price goes up.[/quote]
