How much do I charge to care for anothers horses, dog, lawn and life in general?

Question

My roommate has 3 horses and 3 dogs, she seldom feeds these animals any more because she knows I'll do it. I don't have a horse and I only have one dog. She buys all the feed for the horses, and I buy every third bag of dog food. It sounds simple but it's not an easy daily task, some day I go to feed and a gate will be down and this has to be taken care of right hen, not when she gets off work., the dogs are big and all need fresh water daily. The horses have to have 2B watered daily & I dump and clean water troughs every couple days. I've also been doing all the lawn care and pool up keep (about 3.5 hours a week). As well as dinner, dishes and the general house hold up keep. She does do her laundry and has her own bath room.~I work at home and pay half of the bills. ~I don't say much about the cooking and hose work because I can't stand a mess and messy clutter doesn't bother her at all. It's a choice on my part to keep it clean.

How much would I be paid to do this?

Answer 1

Ask yourself how much is your time worth per hour? Are you worth $10, $15, $30 an hour? What are you paid at your job?

Once you figure out how your hourly worth is, figure out how many hours it will take you to do the job. For example, if you are worth $15 and hour and the job will take you 4 hours a week to do, you should charge $60 a week.
