Heather's Fur Babies

Heather's Fur Babies is a small dog boarding and daycare business at 24541 670th Ave in Nevada, Iowa, offering overnight boarding, in-home boarding, and doggy daycare. For owners comparing dog boarding in Nevada, its main draw is size: the business lists a capacity of 10 dogs.

What services does Heather's Fur Babies offer?

The business covers three kinds of care. Daycare suits owners who want their dog to burn off energy during the workday instead of waiting at home. Boarding covers trips and longer stays, and the business is also listed for in-home boarding.

• Traditional overnight boarding
• In-home boarding
• Doggy daycare with supervised play
• Indoor play space
• Kuranda raised cots in every kennel

How are boarding dogs cared for?

The approach here centers on keeping dogs busy. The website describes a goal of keeping boarding dogs out of their kennels and active as much as possible, so they settle in tired at the end of the day. Supervised play gives dogs regular chances to socialize and get exercise.

Each kennel has a Kuranda raised cot to sleep on. Owners are welcome to bring a bed, blanket, or toys from home so the space feels more familiar. Food and water bowls are provided.

Why does the small group matter?

With a capacity of 10, the play group stays small. The website frames this as more comfortable for both the dogs and their people. A dog that gets overwhelmed in a big, noisy daycare may do better in a setting like this. Because space is limited, contacting the business ahead of time makes sense.
