   How does the dog act when boarded -- is he a lunatic if he sees other dogs   
   in the next cage?   
      
   There are professionals who will come in just long enough to check on a dog,   
   feed him, take him for a walk, etc -- whatever services you ask for --   
   without actually staying in the house. A local vet might recommend someone.
