Default Going on vacation..how do I give "the talk?"

I'm going on vacation in May and I can't stop worrying. I'm leaving my pup (she's 14 wks now, by then she'll be almost 18 wks) for the first time and not feeling too confident.
The problem is, I'm leaving her with my boyfriend's mother and I'm worried she will let her run wild and do whatever she likes and after all the work I have put in trying to keep her from developing bad habits, she will have her for a week and I will be handed back a rambunctious brat.
I have worked hard at not letting Itsy bite fingers or chew shoes or anything but whenever my bf's mom comes over she is one of those people who holds the puppy and is like "aww! she's chewing my fingers! how cute!" or "oh look, she's got hold of my shoe! how cute!" I have corrected my pup in front of her and told her "no, leave it" yet I get the distinct impression my bf's mom thinks I'm just being "mean" when I discpline the cute little puppy. I am tempted to just put her in a kennel but my bf's mom is already so excited about babysitting I know she'd be crushed. What do I do?????
