[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, legally it’s the car owner’s responsibility.
But ethically, yes, you made the mistake. 
Talk to the owners. See if they’ll split with you. Next time do not agree to move a car. [/quote]

No, do not ask them to split it with you. Your mistake. You pay. [/quote]

NP. I disagree.

Did the house sitters disclose this ahead of time? That you'd be responsible for moving their car, and did they share with you how best to do for the neighborhood?  If the OP knew all this and agreed in advance, then they should pay. But if the owners didn't share this info in advance, I think it's on them. I've had someone hosuesit for my home, and I left detailed neighborhood parking info.[/quote]

OP here. They told me ahead of time and to park in front of a specific person's driveway, that they'd cleared it with him. I chose to go around the block to a quieter/less busy street.

Last question: I will pay this ticket. Do I have to tell them? I feel so stupid. [/quote]

I would tell them because it's part of their record. I can enter my car in the local database and all my parking tickets come up.[/quote]

This.   When we get tickets of any kind, they are associated with the license plate.  Since I am the registered owner, it is my  responsibility to pay those tickets (or have or ask others who I offered use of my car to do so).     Given the very clear directions OP, I do think this falls to you.  However, please let them know what happened so it's not a surprise when they check their MVA registration record.[/quote]
