Her early career included a recurring role on 'Viper' and a part in Adam Sandler's 'Happy Gilmore'.
Fleming's breakthrough came when director Dario Argento cast her in his show 'Masters of Horror' in 2005, where she played a disfigured woman with cannibalistic tendencies in the episode 'Jenifer'. She went on to appear in various horror productions, including 'The Tooth Fairy' and 'Bloodsuckers'. On 'Supernatural', she played Karen Singer, the wife of Bobby Singer, portrayed by Jim Beaver.
In 2015, Fleming appeared in the TV film 'The Unauthorized Full House Story', playing the mother of Candace Cameron Bure's character.
