I’m assuming OP probably took the response sideways and the neighbor sounded like it was a burden to do it. Dog, if it’s a burden for you to do it then I’m not asking you to do it anymore. It’s not a strange request, if anything. The neighbor sounds autistic. Also I can’t stand people starting texts like:

Good Morning, (insert name here)

What is this an automated email?

Bro that is the most normal greeting ever, I think you might be autistic 😂

She started with ‘that’s a strange request’. 

Clearly she saw it as a burden.

How many times have you been asked to check if a stove was on from a neighbor in your life? It's objectively more strange than being asked to check the mail or to go in and feed a cat. It's just literally not a common request.
