Ann-Marie Sheehan
Owner at Sheehan Homestead LLC DBA Critters-On-Call
Website Address: https://Www.sheehanhomestead.com
Short company description:
Spread joy learning and wellness with critters and stem on call.
How do you define success?
Quality of life for our animals
How did you get started in your field of work?
We started Sheehan Homestead after reevaluating our careers and life goals. Ann-Marie, a dedicated educator, and Michael, with a background in corporate sales and an Executive MBA, both felt the call to create something more meaningful and personally fulfilling. Inspired by Mike’s EMBA capstone project on ‘Homestead Retreats,’ which aimed to offer a respite from professional burnout, we decided to establish our own small-acre farm. This allowed us to combine our passions—education, animal care, and sustainable living—into a venture that not only serves our community but also aligns with our values and desires for a healthier lifestyle. We believe this is only the beginning as we have a long-term vision that is both broad and deep.
What do you consider to be your greatest accomplishment?
My daughter. I’m a mom now.
How has your business changed in the past 12 months?
So much has changed. Being a mom entrepreneur and finding ways to do both like the momm&me offering i came uo with.
Describe a Failure in your Career
Some of my first events had zero attendees. It isn’t that easy to be a successful programmer- even with goats.
What about your company makes you the most proud
The animals promote happiness, wellness, and learning.
How do you motivate people to give their best?
You get a golden goat statue if you do a good job.
