And again Hax goes straight to eleven/GoF with a husband who
sounds like he's a doink.

I'm probably in the minority, but I think when you housesit you
treat the house as the owner would. If they'd let everyone in a
5 block radius use the pool, you do too. It's not your house.
You want a house where you get to use the pool in privacy? Pay
for an Airbnb.

I've house sat for my parents. I can't imagine telling their
neighbors to fuck off.

The LW took on too much work with no compensation and that is
the problem.
[/quote]
She wants the pool by herself and she's throwing a temper
tantrum about having to share.
[/quote]
I think it’s a cumulative impact situation. The LW is house
sitting for 4 dogs, cleaning, and organizing for a month. For
free.
The neighbors at the pool are easier to be mad at than her
relatives so that’s where this is going.
[/quote]
Eh. I still think she's just pissed she hasn't gotten solo pool
time.
[/quote]
I would be pissed, too.
[/quote]
I would be too. It's not a community pool. And LW didn't agree
to be the neighborhood butler.

In general, yes, but in specific, no. I'd be concerned about
liability with heavy use of a pool.

I think the very very least you can do when someone petsits for
you for free, saving you hundreds of dollars, is give them the
run of the house.
Want to give your neighbors free reign of your pool while you're
gone? Board your dogs. Or ask one of them to watch them.

I zoned out during that question because it sounded like a
vent/garbage collecting against her husband.
I think they need to get an overnight sitter and talk less and
fuck more.

That would be my take. It would drive me crazy to have
strangers hanging out let alone telling me how to do my
pet-sitting job.

I think the problem in this letter is that the LW was viewing
using the pool as part of the compensation for house sitting,
dog sitting, cleaning, and organizing.
I don’t think the LW wants an Air BnB with a pool. I think the
LW wants this specific pool because she thought it was in
exchange for her labor.
The mistake from start to finish was unmatched expectations.

I wonder why LW doesn't text or call their relative and discuss
the situation with the pool. Like, boy your neighbors sure are
here a lot! And make sure that's not a surprise and they are
taking advantage of relative being out of town.
If relative is fully aware and ok with the situation, asking if
it's ok to set aside some time to not have them there. The
relative should back LW up on this in gratitude for the
fabulous, personal, hands on discounted pet sitting.
