About: Hi there! My name's Riley. I've signed up on Rover to add a dog along with my walks around Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. A service dog lives with me and I'm unable to have any other pets -- so I'd love to walk/run with yours around town. I'm a big supporter of fitness, being outside, and am a shift-working federal employee with security checks. Year's back, I was an employee at a Vet Hospital on the East Coast and have been working around and exposed to every type of dog breed, demeanor, age, disability, fitness level there is. Looking forward to meeting you and your dog here in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I am flexible as a shift worker and am available at unusual hours. Fitness and getting outside every day is an important goal for me. I follow the instructions provided during the meet and greet and am able to take any updates as they come in from the owner. Safety is a priority.
