Neil – Founder, Senior Musher & Senior Maine Raft Guide

As born and raised “Mainer”, Neil has over 30 years of guiding experience. When he isn’t on the river or snow-packed trails, he is in the classroom sharing his knowledge of science. In addition to all these adventures Neil has added a strong love for creating delicious homemade maple syrup and raising beef critters.

Emma – Reservationist & Office Support

While she fancies herself a Vermonter at heart, Emma has called NH her home since 2010. Emma graduated from Paul Smith’s College in upstate NY back in 2009 with her BS degree in Hotel, Tourism and Resort Management and moved to NH. When she isn’t working from home assisting guests with their reservations, she enjoys exploring the outdoors with her cattle dogs, tending her beehives and reading romance novels. As a mom to a 5 year old and 3 year old twins, she is also an avid coffee lover.

 

Garrett – Musher

Garett is an outdoor lover from small town Maine. After graduating from Unity College with a degree in Adventure Therapy, he moved to Utah to explore the West – but you couldn’t keep him out of New England for long! He moved to New Hampshire with his wife in 2019 and has been adventuring around The Whites with his dogs since! He’s excited to be joining the Muddy Paw team this year, and to tie his love for dogs with his love for getting outside.

 

Heather – Kennel Hand

Heather is the newest addition to the two legged pack at Muddy Paw. With 6 rescue dogs of her own, she is no stranger to the care dogs require. Besides her love of dogs, she also enjoys keeping fish (both fresh and salt water) and coral. Heather has an education in the vet tech field, and has a working knowledge of operating agriculture equipment. While she is no longer and avid hiker, she still prefers to spend her time outdoors whenever possible.
