My husband and I have relied on Emma Marie's since they opened in August of 2010 for daycare and grooming. We work opposing shifts, so Mikey generally is not alone for more than a few hours, but on those occasions that he could be, the only place we consider is Emma Marie's. He loves it so much, and gets so excited that we are usually more than a mile away when he starts getting frantic because he knows that we are going to see his friends. Emma Marie's is a local business born out of love and proper care for dogs. They provide a safe and nurturing environment where dogs can socialize as a pack and exercise ALL DAY LONG in a controlled fashion. Local owner, Johnelle, offers what the major chains can't - personalized service, consistent care, direct owner involvement and a team dedicated to the well-being of dogs. The staff really knows each dog and takes the time to let you know how they interact throughout the day. I would highly recommend Emma Marie's!!!
