Strange hamster request- is there a hamster boarding kennel anywhere?

hi
i know you can put cats in catteries and dogs in kennels when you go away, but is there a similar service for smaller animals? i have a hamster and have to go away for about 2 weeks over xmas/new year and may not be able to take her with me - we don't know our neighbours so would seem a bit strange asking them to pop in/clean her out.
any suggestions would be gratefully received.
thanks

You can get small animal "hotels", I think someone advertises on here for it. www.holidayhutches.com
We were having the same problem for our guinea pigs until my neighbours daughter offered to come in and look after them.
Is there no children or anyone from your work who you could ask?
