We don't have any family around so we board our dog. It's a small in home boarder so it's not as bad.

First choice is my parents. My mom and pup are BFF's. He loves her even more than he loves DH and me. Second choice is my inlaws. They love him.... but it's harder for them because our dog has separation anxiety so you can't leave him home alone- he's already eaten their blinds once. My mom's more willing to take him everywhere she goes, while they actually like to have a life.
But in a few months we'll be going to NY for 10 days and my parents will be with us, and my inlaws can't stay with him 24/7 because they work, so we'll have to board him for the first time ever

A vet tech we met through the BT rescue. She charges $30/day for both so it's not too bad. She even lets them sleep with her. My parents aren't really great with animals...they don't seem to grasp the concept that dogs need to STAY ON A LEASH AT ALL TIMES when you are outside. They don't live nearby, though so this will only be a problem when we're in the hospital for the birth of our daughter.

We have a professional pet sitter who cares for our cat when we are gone. She comes in twice a day and plays with kitty, and also takes in our mail/newspapers, etc. She also texts us pics of our cat playing while we are gone She is pretty much the only person besides me and my husband that our cat likes, so we love her!!!

If we are going to see family we take them with us or drop them with my Dad. If we are going elsewhere we take them to doggie daycare and board them.

My in laws usually take our pup, they love her and she loves it out at their farm. For being a small lap dog she loves to run outside. Otherwise I have a friend who loves to take her because her 2 year old son loves her.

My neighbors normally watch ours, and we watch their's when they're out of town. Otherwise, we board them.
