I work for a lady who is legally blind. I take her to do errands, cook occasionally, watch her 4 year old at the park /pool, and once a week I do the family laundry and clean the house. Daily I clean the kitchen and pick up the living room. I am paid $9.00 plus $25 a week in gas. Is that the going rate?

Different areas have different going rates. You need to ask around or look at want ads to see the rate in your area.
Rates differ depending on the location (even within the same city) so it would be wise to check out this area. The problem you may have getting a "usual" rate is that your job consists of many different types of chores and there are also other factors that are not stated.
It depends on your area and how much you are driving around.
It varies where you live. I would do some research and see how much it costs for what you do in your area. For instances, minimum wage where I live is $10.50 and gas is more expensive here so the wage I would expect would be higher.
You are underpaid-if she is legally blind if you were her onthebooks caregiver you would be getting more per hour. depending howmany hours you work it might be worth going through the system.
