Written Confession: Dog Sitter Experiences Doors Mysteriously Unlocking and Opening in the Middle of the Night

The following written confession was shared online by ExoticNerfs:

About a year ago I was at my dad’s house taking care of the dog for the week because he was gone camping with some friends and my sister, my wife was also gone to Colombia with her family for a month. My in-laws asked me to take care of their dog while they were gone and I, of course, said yes. So there I am, first night at my dad’s house with two dogs who had been playing together all day. I decide to go to bed around 10:00 so I go lock the front and back door, I make sure every door in the house except for my bedroom door is closed and I sleep.

At about 12:00 I hear the dogs freaking out barking and whining so I jump out of bed and go check on them, on my way downstairs I see the back door unlocked and open, I look down at the dogs and they are both staring at the basement door whining and growling while laying in a puddle of their own pee. I see that the basement door is open so I have 911 ready to be called on my phone and I go downstairs, I search around for a while not even sure what I am looking for until I decide to go back upstairs and clean off the dogs.

At maybe 1:00 the dogs are finally clean and no longer focused on the basement so I make sure the basement door is latched and I go back upstairs after making sure the back door is locked as well. At about 2:00 I once again hear the dogs barking and freaking out so I run downstairs, once again I see the back door wide open, so is the basement door, but this time both dogs are staring out the window looking into the back yard. So this time I do not bother to go downstairs I just close the door, I run to the back door and I close it and lock it as hard and as fast as I can, I go upstairs and I did not sleep for the rest of the night but both dogs slept on the bed with me.

After about a week my dad gets home and I ask him if we can watch his home cameras for that first night I was there, I had to wait for him to get home because I had no clue how to work it, and as we are watching I am just looking to see if anything or anyone even went near the house during the night, oddly enough there was nothing. The only weird thing is that around 12:00 and 2:00 the back door randomly flings open with nothing going in or out, but the scary part is that from a different camera in the house we can clearly see me lock the back doors every single time… no issue with the lock any other day before or since then.
