FairyTail Pet Care

08/27/2025

Not much beats the moment when your dogs come see you on the morning of your wedding 🥹 fun fact: often your dog doesn’t recognize you at first (hello tuxedo or giant white dress combined with a not-your-everyday hair/makeup routine.) When we walk up, they’re confused but excited and then suddenly the snoot starts sniffing and they realize it’s mom or dad and lose their minds 🫶 pure sunshine, love and happy tails! Having that quality time with your pups before the ceremony helps them to calm down and understand what’s going on during such a hectic day, plus it helps ease your wedding day jitters, too! All leading to a magical family photo like this one on the last slide 😍🩵🐾 // // 📸:

“Our dog, Ollie, has been a huge part of our lives since college. My husband and I met and I fell in love with his shaggy haired dog immediately. This dog has nine lives we say as he’s been through the ringer with getting into chocolate and going through numerous surgeries; everyone loves his overall carefree personality through anything he’s been through himself or with us through our various life events. The day wouldn’t have been complete without him there...

FairyTail Pet Care‘s services were recommended by our planner, and we ultimately chose them as they set us up with our sitter and had us meet in person to get to know one another before the big day. After meeting with our sitter we immediately felt at ease knowing Ollie would be in the best hands as they are so thoughtful and kind to our special pup!" - The Bride 💙🐾

We are so excited to celebrate ’s 1 year business anniversary! 🎉

Let’s get to know the owners, Joshua & Bailey:

🔹They live in downtown St Louis & are Cat Parents to 5 (indoor) City Cats | Fish Parents to 2 ponds & 3 Tanks | Fun Aunt & Uncle to many friends/family cats & puppies | Walk Shelter Pups often for more puppy time :)
🔹They both left behind more traditional career paths to pursue passion driven lifestyles- in beauty, local property investments, and now... pets! After years of Business Administration, Bailey decided to follow her love of beauty by becoming a Bridal Hair Specialist in the St. Louis Area, working with over 250 bridal parties thus far. And Joshua, being a Marine Veteran who grew up in St. Louis, follows his passion for serving the community through local property investments and events at local pet shelters.
🔹While they love animals - we also love Shark Tank! That is how they discovered FairyTail Pet Care. It so happens Bailey heard from a local bride that their area needed a service like this, so they didn’t hesitate. That gave Joshua the push to retire from his decade long Automation career, and ensure his FULL time was spent towards a more meaningful purpose —helping shelter pets find a loving home and making sure you have the wedding day of your dreams!
🔹When they aren’t busy taking animals (of any sort!) to weddings you can find them enjoying all that STL has to offer or traveling the world visiting animals everywhere they go!

If you’re not already, be sure to give them a follow and watch along as they help make it possible for St Louis couples to include their dogs (& cats!) in their wedding days 🩵🐾 //

We are so excited to celebrate ’s 1 year business anniversary! 🎉

Let’s get to know the owner, Nicki:

🔹Nicki has been a lover of pets since a very young age, and has had numerous pets over the years ranging from cats, dogs, and even a pot belly pig.
🔹Out of college Nicki worked in customer service and sales for the bulk of her career and is currently a Real Estate Agent. Wanting to do more in the pet community she decided to start a pet sitting business about a year ago.
🔹She rescued her fur baby, Buster, from a local shelter in 2017 and has been a passionate supporter of pet adoption ever since.
🔹When the opportunity to become a part of FairyTail Pet Care came around she knew it was a perfect opportunity to combine her love of animals with a rewarding career that brings happiness to so many people.
🔹Outside of work Nicki enjoys spending quality time with her husband, two boys, and dog Buster. Living in the Sacramento area for over 10 years, she enjoys patronizing local restaurants, and family owned wineries with family and friends.

We are so excited to celebrate ’s 3 year business anniversary! 🎉

Let’s get to know the owner, Crissy:

🔹 Crissy has always been an animal lover. Since she was young, she was known as the “animal whisperer” to family and friends, attracting both pets and wild animals alike.
🔹She studied Wildlife Conservation at Humboldt State University in Eureka, California before accepting a job in Wildlife Rehab at a local sanctuary in Florida.
🔹She found FairyTail Pet Care through TikTok, having many of her friends say that it “had her name written all over it”. Loving being a fur-mama to her pup Jasper and 3 cats at home, she knew this was the dream for her.
🔹After working as a FairyTail Lead Handler for one year, becoming a franchise owner to bring the company to Palm Beach was her new calling.
🔹When she isn’t becoming best friends with your pets at your wedding, you can find Crissy teaching the public as a Wildlife Educator, paddle boarding the Intercostal with her partner, Kelly, and fostering kittens through a local rescue.
🔹PS- want to include an animal other than your cat or dog in your special day? Crissy loves working with snakes, lizards, birds, rabbits and other critters too!

If you’re not already, be sure to give them a follow and watch along as they help make it possible for West Palm Beach couples to include their dogs (& cats & other animals!) in their wedding days 🩵🐾 //
