There are a few different ways that you can be sure that your pet is getting fed the proper food and on time. With our pets being so important to us it is invaluable that we know that they are cared for when we are not there to do it ourselves.

I have a lovely Sister in law who looks after my Cat, Buddy if I have to go somewhere, and I can't take him with me...

Noted. Thanks Andrija, Our pets are always part of the plan when ever we evn think of doing anything, We take our 13 yr dog with heart probs, and my daughter or mom take care of my kitties. Whenever we can't take our doggy for some reason, she stays with my daughter.

Noted and tweeted. I really wish I could say what I would do with my furbaby if I went on a vacation. But I have not had one in more than 20 years, so I can not say. I did take a drive at night, spend the day, at Gulf Shores trip several years ago with a girl friend and we loaded both our dogs up in a station wagon and took them with us. I think I would leave her with friends. I would never trust anyplace to board her. Thank you Andrija!

I don't go on vacation because no one can take care of my pets like I can.

In my experience, dogs like to travel with you, but I would not want to take one on a plane, cats are most comfortable in their home. So my preference has always been to have someone I trust stay at my house during my absence.

Thank you for the article ~ we take our 3 babies (2dogs/1cat) to a kennel, where they have been many times....things work out well...other than I can't wait until I get home to be with them!!!

I rely on friends who are willing to follow my detailed instructions. Or I'd pay a friend to come in and follow my detailed instructions. I'd never take my cats to a place where they are going to be caged or with other cats.

Board them (two cats and a dog) at my vets as they have lovely facility so I know they are in good hands. The two cats are on special diets for kidney problems so really apart from being with me they couldn't be in a better place :-) AN

I have too many animals to take vacations! 4 dogs, 7 cats & 100 plus chickens. I don't do vacations. Being at home with my animals is just as relaxing as any vacations as my animals gives me more pleasure then any vacations would do & it does not cost me that much to look after them & make sure that they are well fed & well taken care off. Thanks Andrija.

I rely on family or friends, as long as I can, people I trust, who will follw my instructions. Of course, I'm always ready to do the same for them! Never took my dogs to a kennel, actually, I'm not so keen on it...

I don' t have any pets, I guess that one less worry. But if I did have pets, I would not leave them behind, I don' t think I would enjoy my vacation. Either take them with me or no need to go on vacation. Simple as that.

Nope..no vacations for me... and the doggie gang here hates it when I go to the store so out of country is out of the question.

I have been called a freak at work because they all know how much I love my three and there is no one I would to take care of them ,if I went on vacation . They mean the world to me . We tried one time . Offer a good friend 200 dollars for three days . One condition : they had better all be here and in the same condition we left them .or may God have mercy on your soul ! Cause I wouldn't want to be you if they are harmed in any way . She said no thanks ! I don't even like to leave them when I go to work .

I don't go on vacations either, with my dog and six cats it is impossible. But if i would go on vacation the only one i will trust with my animals is my brother and his wife.

I dont go far from home or even spend one night away. The animals will not survive without me, or maybe I will not survive without them.
