THE PINE HILL RANCH

Our Team

Bob Mullenax

Owner

Bob Mullenax is the founder and owner of The Pine Hill Ranch. LLC. Bob fell in love with horses as a six-year-old boy on the back of a Shetland pony named Dobber. As an adult, his fondness for horses was rekindled, and he purchased a young American Saddlebred named Red Hot Mamma. Red Hot Mamma, aka “Girlfriend,” would become a show horse and earn Bob Six world championship titles. As a result, Bob’s fondness for horses became a passion for excellence.

As an entrepreneur, Bob is familiar with both failure and success. He has had his share of both. Today, Bob owns several companies that provide health-related services to nursing home residents. He attributes his success to God’s blessings in his life.

Bob’s passion for excellence has become the standard for everything at the Pine Hill Ranch.

EQUESTRIAN CENTER STAFF

Lindsey

Equine Manager of Pine Hill Ranch

Nearly 20 years of equestrian experience originating in Pinehurst, North Carolina, ranging from jumping and equitation, polocrosse, barrel racing, and trails. Lindsey would say her favorite event would be jumping but does not object to any specific discipline. She has always been interested in veterinary medicine. She has worked closely with veterinarians to gain extensive experience and knowledge, providing the best care for the animals under her watch. Gaining her bachelor’s in business administration in 2021 after taking a few years off from school to get married and start a life with her husband, moving from state to state due to the military, she is excited to use the business side of her brain to run The Pine Hill Ranch. Outside work, she spends time with her three horses and mini donkeys. She enjoys lounging with her husband, three dogs, and three barn cats when she has a spare hour.

Jennifer

Program Director Healing Hooves

Jennifer Sanderson has demonstrated a lifelong commitment to serving something bigger than herself, with 15 years of military experience underscoring her dedication. Jennifer’s professional experience spans project, program, and personnel management across the private and public sectors, making her a versatile and impactful leader. She has transitioned from a distinguished career in federal service—where she worked with the FBI and FEMA—to leading initiatives at Healing Hooves in Little Rock. 

Her journey into the world of horses began at 12 when she got her first horse – Sunshine. As a true animal lover, dogs and horses helped shape her into who she is today. She has experienced their healing power first-hand and loves sharing it with others. After high school, she became a working student for Warren-McMullin Dressage, now near Boston, MA, and in Wellington, Florida. Since then, Jennifer has leased and owned horses and taught lessons. Her favorite disciplines are dressage, hunters, and equitation. 

Jennifer has a passion for teaching and the learning process.  She continues her equestrian education with certifications in Horse Powered Reading, Equine Assisted Learning, Equine Specialist in Mental Health and Learning, and Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor.

For over five years, Jennifer worked as a live-in aide and personal assistant to Sarah, who has developmental disabilities and movement disorders and is nonverbal. 

In a culmination of her diverse background, Jennifer now channels her passion for service into the non-profit sector, combining her skills and love to profoundly impact individuals and communities, changing one life at a time.

Raegan

Barn Manager/Head Instructor at Pine Hill Ranch

Lifelong horsewoman and competitor Raegan has shown horses since age 7 in rodeo events, western pleasure, and the working cow horse. She has also shown in the AHCA obstacle competitions. Raegan has an incredibly high drive to make sure she is constantly learning and becoming a better horseman. She gave up showing for the past two years to choose instead to teach and instill her competitiveness and drive in young horsemen and women. Raegan has had the opportunity to train under many talented horsemen and carry their knowledge into her personal and professional equine life. When not giving lessons at the barn, she enjoys spending time with her show horses and her two dogs, Delta and Wheeze.

Our team would not be complete without mention of our unique herd of horses. Although each is different in color, shape, and size, they all have a genuinely gentle spirit and a desire to connect with us as we grow together as equestrians.
