My sister takes her dog to Doggie Doo Run every Wednesday for dogsitting due to her work, so that they are familiar with the place. As the poster above says, they let the dogs run free around the house and fenced-in yard. They are very well treated and love to go there. So when she travels, there is no separation anxiety. This method might work for you too. If something, God forbid, ever happened to you, your dog could see that there are other loving people out there to trust.
