Legally, if she pays you for the service, you should report it as income and pay income taxes on it. That would be true even if she "paid" you by discounting your rent.
Practically speaking, if it's a one time thing or if she pays you cash and she doesn't provide a 1099 to the federal government, you'd likely float under the IRS radar like all the babysitters and lawnmowing kids and all the folks not paying use tax on their internet purchases. Then all you have to consider is your personal ethics and organizational skills in keeping track of the income.
