How much would you offer?

I'm going away for a week and was thinking of offer my young neighbour (around 11 years old) some pocket money to water my garden. Wouldn't take much more than 5 -10 mins per day for 6 days . What's a reasonable amount to pay?

£10?

I'd offer £30.

Dd has done this a few times and tend to get £10-20 per week depending on garden size and number of pots/hanging baskets as these need more care

DS did it last year for a couple of my friends and earned £25 per week.

Thanks all. I've asked her mum and she's happy to do the watering but refused to accept payment. Will just need to bring some chocolate and wine home with me.
