If your looking for a place to board your dog over summer vacation, I highly recommend
Great Doggy Doos in Cleveland. I personally know the owners and have taken my dog over there several times.
When we first got our dog, my family and I had some friends of ours pet sit while we were away. For a while, it worked out really well. We were happy to let him stay with someone we trusted and he seemed content in playing with their puppy and song bird.
After a few trips, our friends asked us to return the favor while they went camping for a week and a half. Perhaps we weren't prepared for a high-energy puppy or perhaps we had gotten used to a quiet, obedient dog, whatever it was, we were all exhausted at the end of the week and a half. Our family loves animals, but over the course of eleven days, we discovered that we were not meant to be in the dog-sitting business.
When we decided to go on another trip, we all begged our mother and father to do something different with the dog. Knowing we could not handle another day watching any more dogs, pups or otherwise, she looked into boarding. Being friends with the owners, we decided to try Great Doggy Doos, and have not gone anywhere else.
Check into them, you'll be glad you did.
