You were asked. Did you say yes? I would say no, unless it's your bestest friend in the world. Let them board the dog or find a neighborhood adult/kid to do it for them. Asking you to travel 25 miles a day is ridiculous.
If you decide to go forward with it, call a local boarder, see what they charge, and go with that number.

Just curious, do you own a dog?
Do you know this dog?
Have you ever watched this dog or any dog for someone before?
Do the owners have a fenced yard?
Does the dog have special needs (meds, etc..)?
Is the dog current on all shots?
Will you be staying in the dog’s owner’s home or will you be stopping by?
These are just a few questions to ponder!
I, along with others on this board, could give you more food for thought.
This is an awesome responsibility-especially for 11 days!
Seriously-think it through!

Bigellay1210, I would suggest that you find a job closer to home, perhaps cutting lawns for a neighbor. Driving 25 miles to care for a dog is not a wise investment. If I were the dog owner, I would be ashamed to be leaving the pet home alone without care accept for the few minutes you would be spending with it each day. There are other ways for you to make money this summer.

In My Opinion
Foxhound said:For a friend I would just charge gas expenses. For a co worker or aquaintance I would say 10 20 bucks a day plus expenses. For me you should do it free!
If you need to leave him somewhere,, bring him to me.
If he gets along with the midget dog, he can live here while you run off without him and enjoy yourself.
