It would depend on the temperament of the dog in question and the time of year, plus what days of the week. $50 per day is less than one would make working minimum wage, as 8–4 is 8 hours work, so it comes out to $6.25 an hour. At the same time, dog-sitting is usually a very undemanding job. If it’s during the school year and I don’t have classes on those days, dog-sitting usually amounts to keeping the dog in your sight, taking them for a good walk at least once, feeding/making sure they have water, and maybe playing with the pup in question to make sure they’re happy and entertained. All things told, it’s probably about an hour’s work, with a time commitment attached. During the school year, if I didn’t have classes during the days I’d have to be there, I’d absolutely take that job.
During the summer though? I can find better-paying work, is the honest truth. One has to optimize their summer earnings if they want to not suffer too terribly badly at the hands of modern college fees. But also though, if the dog in question is serially neglected/abused by its owner… I’d be tempted if only so I’d know it was getting at least 8 hours of proper care, but most poorly treated dogs turn nasty, and one would have to pay a much more at-market amount to get me to spend 8 hours caring for a violent aggressive dog. I did landscaping work for a very nice lady last summer and intend to again this summer and she paid fantastically as well, a few times she paid me to dog-sit her English border terrier… and she offered to pay me the same rate as she did for landscaping work. Admittedly I am to some degree unofficially trained for it, but I was making absolutely fantastic money for a 17-year-old college kid. (My mom is a landscape designer who, since I can remember, has had me and my siblings acting as her helping hands out in the garden. I might not know all the scientific names, but I can plant, dig, weed, rake, clip, transplant, and the whole complement of other things better than some professional gardeners. I know that because again, my mom’s a landscape designer. I out-perform many of her coworkers.) I was saying “yes, ma’am!” faster than I could text my mom and say I’d be late for dinner. Not sure if that helps, hope it does,
