Travelers who are going out of town and need a place to harbor a hound or keep a cat can use a national chain of boarding facilities that truly pampers pets. NY1's Valarie D'Elia filed the following report.

Traveling for the holidays is troubling enough, without the added worry of where to put your pet.

Best Friends Pet Care, a national chain of boarding facilities with 42 locations in 19 states, has several locations in the New York metropolitan area. Its newest location in Walt Disney World is designed to help customers who take Fifi and Fido along.

"After a day at Magic Kingdom, come by, take their dog out, play in the dog park, take a walk in the woods," says Debra Bennetts of Best Friends Pet Care.

It’s no surprise that the Best Friends Orlando also has the cushiest digs for dogs.

"We have these fabulous VIP suites which are literally as large as some hotel rooms, equipped with flatscreen televisions and all sorts of special extras," says Bennetts. "In fact, each of the VIP suites has a video camera, so you can watch your dog from your computer."

Best Friends also offers cat condos, which are as high as four stories tall, and also welcome “pocket pets” like rabbits. The chain also serves treats that get pets licking their chops. "We have special ice cream treats which are very popular. For kitties, we have tuna on a Ritz [cracker] and cookies and milk," says Bennetts.

For $5 extra, a pet can have a home-cooked feast for the holidays.

"We roast a turkey in the lobby the day before Thanksgiving, and on Thanksgiving Day, if you like, your dog can have a little turkey and some trimmings," says Bennetts.

Perhaps the familiar touch can help alleviate the human guilt of leaving a pet behind.

"It's like dropping off a toddler at daycare. The minute you're out of sight, he's going to be fine," says Bennetts.

The "Stay and Play" package includes overnight boarding and four hours of socializing for an average of $45 a day.

Now here’s a D’Elia’s deal you don’t want to miss at all Best Friends locations in the United States. Your pet’s first night is free and there is no minimum stay. For more information, visit http://manhattan.ny1.com/content/ny1_living/travel/128888/pet-hotel-chain-offer-first-class-pampering

Siberian Husky for adoption!

This exquisite, 5 year old, female Siberian Husky longs for a family to call her very own. Gizmo has had a rough time adjusting to shelter life, as she’s a very sensitive girl. She dreams of being in a home where she can have lots of fun time outside with her humans, running in the yard, lounging in the grass, romping in the snow, etc… Gizmo is looking for an adopter who will take her for walks and spend plenty of time with her. She’s not a solitary type of pooch. Her ideal adopter will be someone who is dog-savvy and who is willing to put in the time, training, and consistency Gizmo will need in order to feel secure and loved in her new home. Gizmo is petite for her breed, weighing in at 35 pounds. She is looking for a home where she will be an only pet, please. If you would like more information about GIZMO please contract PAWS at (203)750-9572!  Visit their site to see their other amazing pets!

Sweet Greyhound Mix looking for a home!

 LuLu is a sweet grey hound mix. She was adopted out last month but was returned on 10/30/10 because of her extraordinary spunk - she's got alot of energy this girl so would do best with a family that is athletic and has the time to give her the love she so deserves. Lulu walks well on a leash, knows sit, but has a tendancy to jump up on you and this needs to be worked on. She is a smart and loveable dog who is just a year old, weighs 54 lbs.A true beauty - her lines, her coloring are just unique (and so is her personality!) - call Isabel at: 203-249-2170 to meet Lulu or email her at: opin.inc@gmail.com
