What is an adventurer?

Adventurers are individuals who seek out exciting, unusual, or risky experiences, often traveling to new places and exploring uncharted territories. Their pursuits can range from mountaineering, deep-sea diving, and long-distance trekking, to exploring remote cultures or undertaking challenging expeditions. Adventurers are driven by curiosity, a desire for discovery, and often a love of the outdoors. They typically possess qualities such as resilience, adaptability, and a willingness to face uncertainty or danger. While some adventurers work independently, others may be sponsored by organizations, media outlets, or research institutions.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an adventurer?

To thrive as an Adventurer, you need strong physical fitness, risk assessment abilities, and survival skills, often supported by training in first aid or outdoor leadership programs. Familiarity with navigation tools like GPS devices, topographic maps, and certifications such as Wilderness First Responder are typically used. Adaptability, problem-solving, and resilience are crucial soft skills for handling unpredictable or challenging situations. These competencies are essential for ensuring personal safety, successful expedition planning, and effective decision-making in diverse environments.

What are some common challenges faced by professional adventurers and how can they be overcome?

Professional adventurers often encounter unpredictable environments, physical fatigue, and logistical hurdles such as securing permits or managing supplies. Overcoming these challenges requires thorough preparation, adaptability, and strong problem-solving skills. Building a network of reliable contacts, staying up-to-date with safety protocols, and maintaining physical fitness are key strategies to ensure success and resilience in the field.

Job description

Lifelong enrichment through group outdoor adventures. Our 90 minute adventure hikes combine training, exercise, and pack dynamics in the real world. Being part of a pack of dogs reinforces socialization and behavioral expectations. The hike offers all-senses stimulus and physical exercise. All the while bolstering come, leave-it, sit, and other necessary behaviors for a good canine. The results of the hikes are deep and long-lasting, with dogs mentally and physically enriched in the day to day, while chill and well behaved equally at home or at the coffee shop.


Our adventure trainers pick up and drop off, and are with our dogs from start to finish. We go to off-leash hiking areas (Turkey Creek; Onion Creek; Red Bud when the water doesn't have blue algea; etc) and do 90 minute off leash hikes. Trainers send updates on the pick up and drop off times, pictures, and videos. We pay $30 per dog. You can currently expect about 24 dogs a week, with growth opportunities, both in picking up more dogs, but also with boarding and becoming a 1:1 dog trainer and manager opportunities. Note on 24 dogs: sometimes people go on vacation so it may dip from week to week, but that is otherwise standard.
