1. Do you have a sitter come to your place or do you take your pet somewhere (daycare/broading) or leave them home and have someone check on them?
We usually take them with us.... when we travel. The RV was a purchase we made shortly after we got Shelby.
2. Do you only trust family and/or close friends or go to a boarding/daycare?
Family..... if it is a necessity.
3. Do you leave a booklet of your personal instructions or just a brief note or nothing at all?
A note with instructions.... it probably wouldn't be considered brief.
4. Do you pack a bag full of goodies or just take a few things?
They have a backpack that matches Shelby's carrier (Seymour uses a Sherpa..... hubby doesn't want to carry him in a "froo froo" carrier!) 
5. What do you pack for your furbaby?
Sweater or t-shirt, bottled water, small dishes, ziplock bag of food, blanket, squeaky toy, chew toy, and stuffed animals ( 1 for each dog), bows, leashes, harnesses, medical records, recent pictures, towels, petwipes, tooth bruches and gel, "scented" finishing spray.... oh my, I pack more for them than i do myself! 
6. Do you call often to check on them or not call at all?
Of course .... who doesn't?
7. If you call, do you talk to your furbaby?
No, but I do when hubby is watching them.
8. Do you think of our furbaby while you are away or enjoy the relaxation of being alone?
Sometimes.... but I make sure they are in good hands.... so I try not to worry.
9. Do you bring back goodies/gifts for your furbaby? If so what are some things we have bought?
I always go to the pet stores.... or will pick up the homemade treats in the mall for them. I have purchased treats in an airport before!! 
10. When you pick up your furbaby, do you bypass the humans and go straight to your baby or talk w/ the humans awhile before seeing your furbaby?
Usually the furbabies get to me before i can open my mouth!
