Usually my mom watches mine and vice versa when we travel. Once I did use a very nice boarding facility near me called Wee Tuck'em Inn. This is not a typical boardng place -- you can really have your pups spoiled there. I had two of mine stay together in a "toddler room with a view" -- It had a toddler bed, a big window to see outside, and still lots of room to play and have their food and water bowls. They get 6 outside walks a day and because they are cute -- even more attention than normal.

They even had TV rooms if desired. I was impressed at how clean they were and the way they required proof of shots and a recent vet visit. Larger dogs were kept in a separate area and the little rooms were secure anyway so I did not worry about other dogs getting to mine. They would provide a premium food or you could leave your own, which I did. Everything was logged so I could see at what time they ate and went outside. They groomed mine while they were there too so it sort of saved a trip. This place got high praise from my vet and a couple of other pet owners I know. So, you can find some nice places that will take good care of your little ones. Just make sure to make an unannouced visit to check them out thoroughly. I read about some that even have live webcams so you can check in on your pets whenever you want. I would have really appreciated that cause I called them every day checking in.
