Is this client behavior normal?
So a little background. I have been house sitting since I was 18 and I am now 32. I started Rover back in May of 2022. And I have never had a situation like the one I am currently in. I am house sitting for 3 dogs and the owner is a bit of a nightmare. We did two meet and greets both of which went well. But the day I started sitting for them I get a text at 5 am letting me know that the daughter had missed her flight and that she and her boyfriend would be staying with me for three days. So not only did I have to stay with complete strangers, they then brought friends over to the house while I was there. I had just met these people and I had never met the daughter or the boyfriend and I thought it was extremely strange and inappropriate, but seeing as this had never happened I wasn't sure what the proper protocol was for this. I was immediately uncomfortable once I got there, especially since I am spending the night. Luckily the room I am sleeping in has a lock on the door otherwise I probably wouldn't have been able to sleep. The day before they were going to leave the daughter informs me that they're going to stay at her boyfriends house tonight because his house is closer to the airport. Again I thought that was weird because why wouldn't they have stayed there in the first place.
The next weirdness is during the meet and greet the client told me she would have a camera in the office for the two little dogs. I am completely fine with cameras in the house for mine and the owners safety as long as there isn't one in the bedroom and I would prefer they let me know. Once I got there I noticed more than the one she mentioned. One in the kitchen, one the laundry room, one right outside the door that lets into the garage and one over the litter box they have for the two dogs. So far I have gotten a message almost everyday letting me know I did something wrong. I didn't take the dogs out soon enough and I didn't do it correctly. Asking me if there has been accidents in the house (which of course there hasn't). Asking me if I'm giving them water. Just basically letting me know that they are watching me constantly. I feel unable to relax even just a little bit.
This last weirdness is something that just happened, which is what prompted me to make this post. I am currently home and there was a knock on the door. When I answered it was an older woman who tells me shes the husbands mother and didn't he let me know she would be coming over? She also told me she was trying to come in through the garage. So not only did ...
