WHY WE DO IT
FOR THE LOVE OF DOGS
Cha Cha’s has been caring for Sacramento dogs for more than 20 years. Simply put, we respect the power of the dog and honor the value they add to our lives. It is our mission to not only provide superior care, but to help our canine kids successfully navigate all their ages and stages. The Cha Cha's family embraces change, growth and diligently seeks out instruction to keep us up to date on all things “dog.” Each day we learn from our clients, both canine and their human counterparts.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
BALANCE
A content dog comes from fulfillment in multiple areas: physicality, mental stimulation, emotional security and regenerative rest. Our dogs are given the opportunity to safely explore each of these areas. We understand that as dogs develop, their needs change. We’re here to give them what they need, when they need it. Our small size allows us to intimately cater to the individual needs of each guest.
