There are many professional programs out there that can do the job.  Of course they don't use one program alone, normally you need programs for texturing, uv mapping, animation, rendering, etc.  There is no specific program they use though.  Some work better for some people, some work better for others.

The Toy Story series was made partly in 3ds Max. Read that on Wiki. :P
