I have not had to deal with this yet. Alden and I have been on a few weekend getaways but we have a 20 year old son who is still living at home and he takes good care of the furkids. I already have a doggie day care/kennel picked out for when we need it though. Katie and Tori do their dog obedience there and Katie has been a few times for doggie day care. It is a wonderful place! Each dog has there own bed in their own room, there is a wonderful indoor play area and three huge fenced areas outside with swimming pools, playground equipment and all kinds of toys for the kids to play with. The owner and her employees are fantastic with dogs. It is a bit pricey but well worth it to me.
