Welcome to Sun Valley Auto Repair! We’re Carson and Rachel Miller, proud owners and operators of a family-run business with deep roots in our community. Our story began in 2012 in the unlikeliest of places—Carson’s parents' farm shop. That first winter was anything but glamorous, with no insulation to keep the cold out. Carson braved the elements in coveralls, working alongside space heaters to bring customers quality service. It was a humble beginning, but it fueled a dream.

In 2016, after years of hard work and dedication, we purchased land and built what is now Sun Valley Auto Repair. Seeing our vision become a reality has been a rewarding journey, and every step has brought us closer to serving the Holmes County community we love.

Carson’s passion for automotive repair started as a teenager, and running his own shop has always been his dream. He remains deeply invested in growing not just our business but also the industry as a whole. Carson serves on the advisory boards of the Coshocton County Career Center, Buckeye Career Center, and Stark State College. We are also active members of the Holmes County Chamber of Commerce, the Walnut Creek Business Association, and our local BNI chapter. We believe in lifelong learning and staying at the forefront of automotive technology and customer care.

As a family-owned business, we bring something special to both our customers and our employees. We treat everyone who walks through our doors like family, building relationships based on trust and transparency. For our customers, this means exceptional service with a personal touch. For our team, it means a supportive environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to grow.

We are honored to serve Holmes County and grateful for the trust our community places in us. At Sun Valley Auto Repair, we’re more than a repair shop—we’re part of your journey. Thank you for letting us be a part of yours!
