There's a lot of opinion involved in this, but if it were my kid, I would not want an 11 year old babysitting. I taught music lessons for a long time and went through a lot of kids that age. I wouldn't leave most of them home alone for very long, if at all, let alone let them babysit.
I know kids are babysitting younger and younger all the time, and quite frankly, it spooks me out.
