My across the street neighbors are family friends, so we are always helping each other out when it comes to things around the house. So, when they asked me to watch their house while they were on vacation. I didn’t think twice about it, but later realized that if I said yes that meant I would have to look after their dogs as well. I really didn’t mind since they are always helping me out with things too. So I checked on the house the first day they were gone and everything was going good. However, I woke up the next day to a bad snow storm so I knew that I needed to go to the house and make sure they dogs weren’t too scared. Well, right when I walked into the house I knew something was wrong. The house was freezing cold and I had a feeling that the heater wasn’t working. I went over to the thermostat and noticed that the temperature of the house was forty degrees. I saw the dogs in the corner of the house snuggled together to keep warm. I felt so bad that they had to sleep in the house all night without the heater. I called an HVAC company to come out to the house but because of the storm they weren’t able to come out that day. So I walked the dogs across the street to my house where the HVAC system was working and the heater was turned on. Hopefully the HVAC company will be able to come out soon!
