Should I be upset?

My roommate expects me to dog sit his dog. Now his friend has dropped off a dog without my knowledge which is growling at me from inside a cramped carrier. The roommate comes home, rants at me for not taking the dogs outside enough, then sets the oven on self clean and leaves the house. I smell smoke and go into the kitchen. The entire house is filled with smoke from the oven and the alarm is blasting. I herd the dogs into another room and open EVERYTHING plus three fans to get rid of the smoke. It's pouring out of the house as if it were on fire. I call the roomie and he says, "Well I tried to tell you about the alarm, but you were in your room". How is this my fault? This among MANY things and little insults he has thrown my way. I am very low key and quiet, working in my room. This feels like the last straw to me. I didn't sign up for this. Nothing about dog care or being accused of everything under the sun in the rental agreement. What are your thoughts?

    Try discussing the situation with your roommate and work out an agreement of house chores.If you cant then move out or move back home.

    Yes, move back home to your parents until you can support yourself financially.
