Meet The Team


We created To Wag & To Hold because we love love, and we love dogs. Get to know our team of professional dog handlers and the inspiration behind it all.

  • DANNA

    Ube is one sassy pup. Being a Sheepadoodle, she’s also a hard working dog. She makes sure that her pack always stays together. Ube’s hobbies include napping on her laz-y boy couch and pawtrolling the mean streets of Seattle (from the window of course)
