The facility is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 to 4:00 for grooming and 6:30 to 7:00 for daycare and boarding, with Saturday hours by appointment and Sunday closed. The business was founded by a dog groomer who wanted to offer cage free grooming options. As clients began asking for care during travel, the operation grew to include doggie daycare and pet boarding built around homelike care rather than a traditional kennel. The owner keeps ten dogs, two cats, and chickens, and named the business after Poet, the first dog who began the owner's love for animals. Poet passed away two months after the opening. The location sits on Wright Street, about a third of a mile from McClellan Avenue, roughly four tenths of a mile from the Dead River, and under a mile from both the Marquette Forensics Laboratory and the Eighth District Headquarters. Poets Pet Parlor holds a rating of 4.80 from customers who have reviewed it, reflecting the standing it has built among pet owners across Marquette County.
