Imagine being in your own home, paying for a service, and being falsely accused of a crime by a young girl with a victim mentality. 62 years, no trouble. Now a permanent stain on your record: Charged with Kidnapping. She should be charged as well.

"no signs of dogs living there" meanwhile it's dog decorations all on the house, the house she says looked run-down meanwhile it's a normal new england home 💀

Short story: It was her first job. She saw something different than what she expected. SHE panicked. In 10 years she’ll be calling the cops on the delivery man.

Y’all don’t know how sheltered and entitled a lot of the ‘middle’ to upperclass New England kids (and adults) are. They think every house should look like a million+ dollar house because that’s all they know, and then they go out in the world afraid of average people. She panicked and hopefully will never get hired as a dog walker again.

if she was able to leave with no problem then she was not kidnapped, that’s crazy

She wanted her identity concealed because she knows she overreacted, but still thinks it’s too late to back down and admit she was wrong

First thing i was taught as a female never enter a house you dont know and never invite a stranger into your home, taught the same to my daughters. Its not just for your own protection but the other persons as well.

"they closed the door and locked it behind me" 😂😂😂 was she expecting them to leave their front door hanging wide open?

I understand she felt uncomfortable but she needed to communicate that rather than immediately escalating the situation. A polite “This is my first job and I’m a bit nervous, so I would prefer to wait outside if possible” would have cleared this up.

I was a full time rover sitter for all of college. I would have immediately assumed it was family but would ask where the woman on the account was (I.e. “where’s Lisa today? I’m excited to meet her!” And see the response from there. It’s part of our job and okay to be suspicious but not okay to incriminate someone if they have done nothing wrong

Shes young and got paranoid. That’s it. It’s not weird for him to lock the front door after she entered.

See I work on Rover and I always do a meet-up to meet the pet with the owner at a local park or something before I book anything. It’s a safety thing and Rover recommends you do meet-ups for new pets especially dogs.

sure I dont disagree there was some weird aspects, but how were charges filed if she left of her own accord? did anyone put hands on her? I dont see how this constitutes kidnapping.

People are questioning him locking the door. Both my cat & dog open up doors & we have to keep any doors we don’t want opened locked at all times 😩

I’d close door quickly and stand in front of it too, if a stranger just came in, and I have three dogs wanting to go out. Does not matter at all who the stranger is. I’m just preventing my dogs from being jerks at the door.

It's very weird that it wasn't communicated that someone would be there...I wouldn't have even entered the house with an unexpected man there. I do not blame her.

I think she’s completely wrong but why can’t they just drop the charges if there’s no evidence? I don’t think she’s wrong to go to the police if she felt uncomfortable but I don’t really get why kidnapping charges were the end result of someone walking into the police station and just telling a story.

Kidnapping? I understand being met with a strange man is awkward as I used to dog walk myself, but you need to be able to communicate things properly.
