Giraffe Ranch is a leafy wildlife park on Mickler Road in Dade City, Florida. Guests meet giraffes, camels, and rhinos on drive-through tours and up-close encounters. The ranch lies near Trilby in Pasco County. Families visit for animal experiences that feel far from city life. Open pastures and shaded paths make each tour memorable.
Dade City is known for its citrus history and small-town charm. Live oaks, laurel oaks, and slash pines shade many properties here. Cabbage palms line fence rows and yards. Longleaf pines, southern magnolias, bald cypress, and hickory also grow across the area. Each species adds shade and character to the countryside.
Get Solutions to Every Tree Care Problem
Priority Property Services FL is a local team that solves tree problems around Giraffe Ranch, Trilby, and nearby Dade City neighborhoods. Dead limbs over paths put visitors at risk, so we remove them fast.
Leaning pines and hollow laurel oaks get safe, controlled removal. Overgrown brush near fences and driveways gets cleared. We grind stumps that block mowing and walking. Storm season brings snapped branches and fallen trunks. Our 24-hour crews clear them and clean the site before you reopen.
Our free quotes keep costs clear from the start, and tree owners gain safer grounds, open access, and steady support all year.
A Planned Approach with Modern Equipment
Priority Property Services FL builds each job around the sandy soil and limestone base common in this part of Pasco County. Loose sand drains quickly, so roots hold less firmly during summer storms.
We use hand saws, climbing gear, rigging ropes, a wood chipper, a stump grinder, and a mini skid steer. Ropes lower heavy limbs gently, which protects nearby pastures and animal areas.
Our arborists avoid heavy equipment and work by hand when we can. When no other option exists, we bring in a bucket truck or a crane. Ground mats spread weight and protect the soil.
Route to Giraffe Ranch from Our Base
Our base in Webster is only 6.4 miles from the ranch, so our crews arrive in about 11 to 15 minutes.
- Our trucks leave 7035 Ricker Ave and head toward Citrus St and Hackwood Ave.
- Next, we turn left onto Citrus St and follow Hackwood Ave for 0.2 miles.
- A left toward US-301 S comes after that, then a right onto US-301 S for 3.6 miles.
- We take a slight left, then another slight left onto US-301 S for 1.8 miles.
- From there, Mickler Rd leads us 0.5 miles to the ranch entrance.
If this shortest route is busy or blocked, we switch to another road. Our crews know the back routes around Trilby, Dade City, and Webster.
