Pat, I'm really lucky that I have family at home most of the time to care for 
my dogs in my absence.  However, when we all go I have a local pet sitter 
that comes twice a day to care for 9 dogs for $20 per day.  She feeds twice a 
day, makes sure everyone has water and cleans my runs twice a day also.  
I'm really grateful for her.
