FarmHER On-Call: Reproductive & Wellness Support Service

A premium, boots-on-the-ground (and boots-in-the-barn-at 2 am) husbandry service for small animals & livestock.

FarmHER On-Call is a specialized reproductive and wellness support service for dog breeders, small animal owners, hobby farms, and livestock operations. Whether it’s a whelping room glowing under heat lamps or a drafty barn expecting twin goat kids, you provide the animals — and I provide the experience, the calm, and the hands-on expertise. 

Why? Because I have been there, in the same position as you, wanting to do it myself, but needing to learn hands-on with the support of a mentor who can provide guidance. In Agriculture and breeding, that is a rare find, and I am here to change that. 

This service blends scientific knowledge with seasoned intuition… the kind you only earn after years of kidding seasons, farrowing pens, bottle babies, mastitis battles, dystocias, fading puppy protocols, long nights under a red lamp or in the unfortunate case, a tearful goodbye after hours of literal blood, sweat and tears inside of a barn stall, or in your whelping room, wishing there was one more thing you could have done. 

It is designed for small- and large-animal owners who want professional-level support without the cost or limitations of emergency vet hospitals, and for farmers who prefer evidence-based, compassionate care guided by someone who has actually lived it.
