Hi! My cousin works at a kennel & she is great. This particular kennel is also a doggie day-care. You might want to look for one of these places as the dogs get all kinds of attention during the day, whereas they might be crated all day at a vets office.
I boarded my 2 at my cousin's kennel recently. I brought their little beds from home, their regular food (make sure you bring her usual food because a change in diet will upset her stomach, especially if she is away from home), a t-shirt of mine, a few of their toys, and a picture of my & my fiance to hang in their crate - I didn't want them to foget what we looked like!
Best of luck - and have fun!! You aren't doing anything wrong, don't feel guilty!! You deserve a vacation!!!
