Meet Amanda Hinners
Amanda has been working with animals all her life and started
her career in grooming 7 years ago. She apprenticed under a Master Groomer in her home town of Coos Bay, OR, for
1 1/2 years. When she started working as a groomer in that salon she had no idea that this would turn into a passionate
career for her.
Amanda moved from Coos Bay in 2004 and began working at
a local vet clinic here in Carroll. Where after 3 months of cleaning kennels she finally started grooming again.
At the interview for that job, she was asked, "Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" She responded with, "I hope to
own my own grooming salon." Less then 5 years later here she is, with her own salon.
"Grooming dogs has been a passion of mine for some time
now. It started with a job given to me as a way to keep me from joining the Army. Little did I know that my passion
for animals would spill into a career in grooming.
I can honestly say that when your pet comes to me for a
groom, your dog will be cared for like he or she was my own dog. And let me tell you, my dogs are really spoiled!"
Amanda currently owns two dogs, both Australian Shepherds,
name Jesse James and Rocky. She also owns two horses, CJ and Gunner.
