How much should I ask them to pay me?
I'm watching my friends kitten from saturday to wednesday. I'm going to have to keep it at MY house. I have to feed it, play with it, and all that stuff. How much should I charge?

Want to answer more questions in the Domesticity category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Babysitting?
To babysit children the average is 5 dollars. Don't be to expensive the owners will most likely dislike the price. Ask them what they'd like I think 10-15 dollars would be fine. But ask them first you dont want to cheap or to much it's not right.

I would say around $40-$50 because first of all that is a lot of work. second of all, thats still a LOTTT cheaper than your friend taking the cat to any kennel, and will probably get more love than in any kennel.

Well , since kittens aren`t that big of a deal .. & they can clean thmeselves , it shouldn`t be too much. But i deff. think that u deserve some amount of money. Especially since your ganna be feeding it. Uhm I would say , for four days ... 30 dollars? Idk , respond and tell me what you think.
Hope I helped. <3

She's your friend! You shouldn't charge her. But if you want to, I think around 20.00.
Hope I helped!

I think as a friend you should not charge, but if you must 50.00

Are you kidding? You shouldn't expect payment for watching a friends pet, especially a kitten (which are comparably low maintenance- compared to a great dane or the like). They should offer you money or bring you a gift when they return, but if they are your friends then this is a gesture of kindness on your part.

If they offer you money, I'd ask for at least $100. Anything else really is too low. That's just over a dollar/hour. Don't you think that your time is worth at least that much?
But if it is a really close friend who doesn't talk about payment, then let it be and take what they give you (if anything) and just enjoy the sweet kitten!!

you shouldn't expect payment for taking care of your friends cat just tell them to bring all the supplies needed and what she likes to do like certain foods,and toys and stuff.hopefully your friend will return the favor...

If its like your best friend don't charge at all just make sure you don't have to buy all the kittens needs food toys etc. if its an ok friend i'd say 10$

It is kind of rude to ask for money from a friend that you are doing a favor for... you cant always expect money for doing a good deed. I work with animals and it is not good to play with them when they are being moved into a new home it is too stressful for them and it will make them sick expecially since it is a kitten and it is still young. So unless it comes to you wanting to play then give it that attention. other than that i would just feed it and change its littler dont really mess with it too much because you dont want it to get sick.

k Hi again..well I actually watched frankie (The dog.) Overnight, but he didn't get picked up till like 5:00 pm so it was basically two days. I got $24. It was kind of surprising to me but I guess that's how much they thought it should be. Now, since it's a kitten, it might be a little less becuse you don'[t have to take them for a walk and stuff.I'd say maybe like $5 or $10 dollars a day. Good Luck!

I wouldn't ask for money unless they mention a payment of some sort. If they do, I'd ask for about 30-45 dollars. As the person below me said, ask them to bring the toys & rest of the necessities to your house. (so you wont have to go & buy all of that) If they don't mention a payment, don't sweat it, you did something nice & I'm sure you'll love the kitten. :]

I wouldn't charge a *friend* anything at all.
I would ask them to bring over the kitten's food and toys and litter-box.
But I wouldn't charge them money for it. Its a favor between friends, hopefully they'll return the favor at some point.
