Hi! My name is Nicole!

I’m the owner and founder of WedPets. In August of 2017, Dane and I were married. We had wanted our German Shepherd, Greta, to be part of our special day, but this came with many challenges. With a lot of planning, great vendors & amazing friends, Greta got to be there. Everything was perfect.
 
A couple of months went by and I couldn’t stop thinking about how more couples might like to have their pets be part of their special day. The following November, WedPets was born. I am honored to help make the impawsible pawsible for others on their most special day. 
 
In addition to running WedPets and being a basic dog mom, my husband and I have fostered dogs, foster failed, and will foster again! We are now a family of four (Ike, our chocolate lab mix entered our lives two weeks after our wedding as a hurricane rescue) and have a little baby boy on the way!

Andrea

Hey there! My name is Andrea and I am a Pet Handler here at WedPets. I’m a Saint Louis native and a die-hard animal lover. So, it’s only natural that I’ve ended up here! As a mom of 4 large breed dogs, 2 cats, and 9 chickens, I can truly say I’ve seen (and cleaned!) it all. 

 

My animal care background is rooted in shelter work, so I have extensive handling experience across a multitude of behaviors and am extremely comfortable with strong pullers, reactive dogs, and dogs with fear/anxiety based challenges. My full time job is in market research, but I’ve combined my love of dogs + nature and created my very own canine hiking service here in the Lou, called LEASHcapades. You’ll rarely find me out and about without a leash in my hand. 

 

I look forward to meeting you and your furry loves for your big day! I want you to know, I’ve got your back.

ERIN

My name is Erin and I am a Coordinator for the WedPets team. I met Nicole through a fundraiser for Five Acres Animal Shelter and instantly knew I would love to be part of her crew.

 

I am originally from Des Moines, Iowa but have called STL my home for the past six years. My 14-year-old (fur) child, Lilly, is the light of my life and was the flower girl at our 2015 wedding.

 

Fun fact, my husband Nick and I got married on Halloween! I am the owner/ lead photographer of STL PET PICS, a wedding coordinator for Lost Hill Lake Events, and I have a career in marketing which led me to work at a local pet care facility for three years.

 

I am so excited to build from my experience and begin working as part of the WedPets team. I have never met a dog I didn't like (who has?) and I already feel honored to be able to help pet parents make their wedding day dreams come true!
