I'll tell you why it matters. I have a pet. If someone opens the door and my pet runs out, I may never see her again.
Believe me, it matters.
I would NEVER leave my Animals alone for 3 Days! I would take them with me or Board them or have people look in on them! & I would let Everyone Neighbors LL know I was gone in case of Fire!

You mean a pet that you aren't supposed to have there?
If your lease allows you to have a pet then the landlord is aware of it when they enter.
To OP-I think the op should notified the landlords of expected package and what to do with it. When I expect a package to be delivered when I am gone, I notify the shipper to hold it until I know I will be back.
If your package is sitting there for 3 days outside while you are gone and gets stolen, will you be happier then?
I think that was nice of them to receive your package. It's not like they opened the door and walked around and set it in your bedroom.

Never mind. It's not worth it and it can't be fixed.

Then read it again. It was in response to someone saying a landlord can't enter because they had a pet and it might get out and run away. I responded if they had a pet under the lease the landlord would be aware of it. As such they would take reasonable precautions upon entering to make sure the pet didn't get out.
As a landlord I knew which tenants had pets and was always careful to open the doors carefully so the pet didn't bolt out the door as they sometimes would hear you coming and be sitting right at the door.
Just wanted to add that just because a pet is legit and in the lease doesn't mean they'll know and/or care. I have a cat that I'm allowed to have and every time someone comes in while I'm not here I have to lock her up in a bedroom because they let her out the first time they came. The guy was a worker who had no clue I had a cat despite the sign on the door. He said "oops, sorry?". Luckily my scaredy cat hung out close to home.

You mean the same landlord who buys treats specifically for my dog? The dog that, according to you, she doesn't know I have?

My LL knows I have a dog but if he's going to be there or have people in there when I'm not I certainly make sure the dog is kenneled.
And Cats on an automatic feeder/waterer are fine for three days. Cats really don't need us.
Exactly. I either hold my dogs collar or put her in the bedroom before I open the door.

Then stop deflecting and accusing people of having pets without the landlord's knowledge.

And there you go again. It flew right over your head that the thread was about entering WITHOUT THE TENANT'S KNOWLEDGE.
Damn. It must hurt!

Exactly.
You are hypersensitive. Note the question mark about the pet when I made that statement.
I'm not deflecting only clarifying the intent of the post-but of course you you seem like the type that always feels persecuted.
If your landlord buys your pet treats, then why are you so worried that he will let the pet out and runaway? He obviously knows there's a dog there. So why post something as stupid as you did about the landlord letting the dog out.
What hurts is idiots like you that make a statement, then make another that makes you look like a fool.
