01

Dog Obedience Training

Help with problem, behavior, and basic obedience. I am a certified dog training instructor offering private sessions covering puppy, basic, and advanced instruction.

02

Dog walking

Now you can enjoy work even more knowing that your canine companion is being taken out for a lengthy walk during the day. No more worrying about getting home at 5:30pm in the evening to get him or her out before it's "too late". Smooches4Pooches provides a professional dog care provider who will exercise your dog and provide attention during the day. In return you'll have a happier and healthier pet!

03

Doggy Day Camp

Why leave your pup home alone when they could be living their best life? Smooches4Pooches Day Camp is the ultimate Disneyland experience for dogs. Available Monday through Friday, 7:30am to 6:00pm. Give yourself peace of mind knowing your furry family member is spending the day in a fun, safe, and loving environment while you focus on yours.

04

Pet Boarding

While you're away on your trip, your dog gets to go on one too! Smooches4Pooches provides a loving home boarding environment where your pup can socialize with other dogs, enjoy outdoor potty facilities, and receive the personalized care and attention they deserve. Say goodbye to crowded kennels and give yourself true peace of mind knowing your best friend is safe, happy, and living their best life until you return.

​

Smooches4Pooches is a licensed kennel operator, giving you the added confidence and peace of mind that your pet's care meets the highest professional standards.

Pooches,

Where Pets Are Family.

About Smooches4Pooches & Meet Christine! 

​

Welcome to Smooches4Pooches! I’m Christine Davis, the founder and heart behind the business. As a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to 11 wonderful dogs of my own, I know firsthand that our pets aren't just animals, they are cherished members of the family.

​

I started Smooches4Pooches 25 years ago because I saw a real need for personalized, stress-free pet care. I wanted to create an alternative to crowded kennels and rushed dog walks, a service where owners could go to work or travel with complete peace of mind, knowing their best friends were receiving the same love, attention, and routine they get at home.

​

What sets Smooches4Pooches apart is our commitment to your pet’s individual happiness and well-being. Whether it’s a midday walk to break up a long workday, a cozy boarding stay, or basic obedience training, my goal is always the same: to keep your canine companion healthy, content, and safe in a home environment. 

 

When you choose Smooches4Pooches, you aren't just choosing someone to care for your pet; you are gaining a reliable, certified partner in your pet’s care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

APPROACH

Devoted Care, Just Like Home

I believe that every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and right at home, even when their owners are away. My approach at Smooches4Pooches is built entirely around creating a cozy, nurturing environment where your pet is treated as a true member of the family. From familiar routines and warm cuddles to individualized attention and a home filled with love, I make sure your dog never feels like just another client. From the moment they walk through my door, they are welcomed with open arms, treated with the utmost care and devotion, and surrounded by the same warmth they have at home. You can go to work or travel with confidence, knowing your companion is in the hands of someone who truly loves them like their own.
