Missy Holland

Missy is one of our Senior Groomers and has been in the business since 2008. She has a passion for all things dogs! She has been working with dogs since she was in 4-H at 11 years old with things like agility, conformation, and obedience. She specializes in making doodles look like doodles, small mixed breeds, show cuts on poodles, puppies' first haircuts, large breed dogs, senior and special needs pets, and cat grooming!
Beckie
Master Groomer
Becki has been grooming pets for over twenty years. She is our resident cat expert, she has a very special way with them, and they love her! She is also wonderful with small dogs. Beckie can always be found with her best buddy, Eva, a beautiful standard poodle.
Michelle Rigby
Master Groomer
Michelle is a Utah County native who has loved dogs her entire life and has always wanted to work with them. She started as a bather while attending Snow College, and then in 2005 decided to learn to groom and knew she had found her passion!
Michelle is very interested in dog psychology and how their emotion drives their behavior and uses this knowledge for a positive and fear free approach to help dogs feel comfortable and confident.
Ginger Ford
Senior Groomer
Ginger started out as a client of Synergy Pet Salon. After the move to American Fork, Ginger became one of our valued staff members! Ginger’s personable demeanor makes her a favorite among staff and clients alike. She has a knack for communicating with animals and they fall in love with her. Ginger has a background in cosmetology and becoming a pet stylist has been a beautiful combination of two loves for her.
Christie Mangum
Dog Groomer
Christie is an American Fork local and joined our team at the begining of 2020. Christie originally learned to groom humans, but soon learned dogs are much more fun! She brings all of her creative skills to Synergy and produces beautiful grooms. As a bonus, dogs love her! She specializes in awesome doodle and poodle cuts. Her books are currently closed, but you can contact us to be put on her waitlist!
Anna Moore
Dog Groomer
AnnaLynn Moore is a Utah native and creative soul. Brought on as a receptionist at Synergy Pet Salon, she quickly fell in love with the grooming world. She was trained here, under Aubrey Slabbert and Kaeli Thomas. Anna loves that she gets to combine her two passions, animals and art, every day! When not at work she continues to create and publish art, mainly working with watercolors, all based around animals.
