I (M20) am a college student, and I go to school out of state - my family live a couple states away, about 2 hours by flight and about 12 hours by car. My little sister (F18) has applied to a couple different schools, and her dream school was the one I attend, but she was rejected this week from the school and has to start looking elsewhere. She and my dad (M55) and mom (F53) have been talking about visiting schools sometime this month.

This afternoon I missed a call from my dad, who left a voicemail just asking him to call him back. I did, and my dad started asking me about when my classes for the week ended and what days off I had next month. I told him but cautioned that I frequently have plans with my friends on the weekend, and I overheard him over the phone telling my little sister to "look up available dates". I asked him point blank what was going on, and he told me that my little sister, he, and my mother were going to go to some of the schools that my little sister had been accepted to, and they wanted me to fly home to watch the dog and house sit for possibly multiple weekends next month.

I was a little incredulous at this - my twin brother (M20) is at college at a school much closer than me and regularly visits home for the weekends, something that I rarely have the luxury to do. My family also knows many people with whom our dog is quite friendly, so it's not like they \*need\* me around. The dog has some medical issues and will get very stressed if he is separated from his family, however, but we have gone on extended trips without him several times without significant issues.

I told my dad this, and he said that he wanted me to dog-sit, and would pay for me to fly home. I felt really uncomfortable with this (a plane ticket would be something like $300, and the cost of getting a friend to dog-sit would be far less, or even free if my brother was available, though my father is well enough off that finances are not a significant obstacle for him). He asked me when I would be available for the weekend, and I told him point blank that I simply did not want to do it. I often go out and do things with my friends on the weekends, and I thought that it was a waste of my time and his money to send me home just to dog sit. I am not home sick or anything, and the thought of flying home to an empty house for a weekend is not something I enjoy.

He accepted it, we talked for a little bit more, and then we ended the conversation. A few minutes later, he called me back, and said that he was quite angry at me for saying no.

He said that he was only asking a favor of me, and that he had spent the past twenty years doing favors for me (including paying for my college, plane tickets home for winter/spring break), and that he felt offended that I had declined to do this favor for him, and that he did not like that I had declined without giving him specifics with regard to availability. I told him that I appreciated all of the favors that he had done for me throughout the years, but I did not feel comfortable doing this for him as I did not think it was a smart move on either his part or my part. I apologized for offending him. He did not ask me again to come home and dog sit, and I did not offer. We ended the conversation again, but I got the impression that he was still angry.

Am I the Asshole? Even if my dad has no issue spending that money for a plane ticket home, I did not want to go home to an empty house and a dog for a weekend, and I thought that it was unreasonable of him to expect that of me.
