While they were away, the Redditor's mom received messages from the petsitter to say the birds were doing fine.
Our beloved pets are an integral part of our family, and we want the absolute best for them. So, when we have to leave them for a significant amount of time, it's only natural that we choose someone we trust to take care of them.
Reddit user u/Reddit/Sammid247 has three birds - a pair of budgies, and a cockatoo that she is taking care of for a friend. So, when the OP and her family were planning a weekend away, she wanted to make sure the birds would be taken care of.
The Redditor's mom asked one of her brother's exes to look after the birds while they were away. The OP agreed with the plan as long as the birds were cared for the way she asked.
Before they left, the OP uncovered the birds, changed their food and water, and left some radios on for them. While they were away, the Redditor's mom received messages from the petsitter to say the birds were doing fine.
However, when they arrived home after two days, the OP walked into the house to find everything in darkness, no radios on, and the birds' food and water hadn't been changed. The OP was furious and immediately went to tell her mom about it.
The Redditor's mom brushed it off, but the OP said the birds would have been better off if no one had come at all. She told her mom that she would never allow her brother's ex to petsit again.
Now the OP is wondering if she was overreacting here. Keep scrolling to see how people reacted.
What are your thoughts on this situation? Do you think the OP overreacted, or are her feelings understandable?
Either way, it doesn't seem that the petsitter did much petsitting at all. Those poor birds were essentially left to their own devices for two days.
