'I don't appreciate randos at my house': Woman house-sitting for free lets friend inside for 5 minutes to pick up food, homeowner freaks out on her

House-sitting for someone else can be a tricky job. If they're chill, then you're chill. You can relax and not worry about if they're going to notice that you moved one of their forks. But some folks are weird about their dwellings. They're protective over their spaces, whether they know how to enforce that well or not. These days so many people have cameras- either on their porches or in their homes to look over their pets. So you never know if you're being watched. All this can make house-sitting a gamble. 

You also never know what kind of boundaries the person you are house-sitting for might have. Maybe they're a strictly shoes-off house and if you dare step a Converse into their foyer you're as good as gone. Maybe they never feed their pets table scraps no matter what, and the thought of slipping them a little bite of rotisserie chicken sends them into a tizzy.
