What do you do with yours pets when you deploy?

I left my Dog with family. but make sure who ever you do they really dont mind it. because i had a buddy who left his dog with his mom and when he got back his dog was gone to new home.

Find a good friend or a relative who is willing to pet sit for the duration.

My pets stayed at home with the wife and we offered her services to watch others as we found out that many local shelters in the area we were in mistreated the animals and some returned home to find that their loved little companion had died.
