Who We Are
Squeals on Wheels is an old-fashioned family business founded from a love of animals. Meet our dedicated family members and passionate team who bring joy to events with our petting zoo services. Learn more about our background, team, and ongoing family involvement.
We are an Old-fashioned Family Business
Our business came about from a love of animals and sharing them with friends and family. While growing up, all five of our kids participated in events and cared for the animals at our farm. Today, our daughter Chelsea owns the petting zoo Tiny Tails to You in Texas and Tyler owns Rent-a-Coop in Maryland! Our daughter Marlena is a nurse practitioner at a children’s hospital and our son Grant lives in Germany with his wife Kate and Raquel lives in Colorado with her fiance. All of our kids love to visit with their families and stay involved with our farm and the zoo.
Today, many of our events workers are students and teachers who have a love for animals and kids! We still believe in a family business atmosphere and strive to have our staff members as involved as our kids were!
Warm Regards,
