Nick Carrel

Inspired by the dog walkers of Buenos Aires, Nick returned to the Bay Area and completed the Dog Walking Academy in 2015.

His natural affection for dogs & love of South America’s highly-caffeinated “yerba mate” are a winning combination. Known for his enthusiasm on the trails and energetic leadership, he can be heard whistling, clapping and encouraging his dogs along the hike.

Nick is also co-founder of a dog treat company, Rigby, graduate of Karen Pryor’s Dog Training Professional academy, and dog dad to Teddy, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.
