Dog Walking in Yellowknife, NT

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! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Riley is absolutely amazing! While we’ve been away, she’s been walking our dog Goose and taking such wonderful care of him during their time together. I can tell she loves him because it shows from the happy photos and the detailed maps she sends of their walks. It’s clear that Goose is in excellent hands whenever he’s with her. We’re so grateful to have found someone so caring, reliable and attentive. Knowing Riley is looking after Goose allow us to relax while we’re away. We can’t recommend her highly enough! 🐾💕

It is important to note any safety concerns as soon as possible, especially interactions with other dogs, children etc who we may come across during the walk.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
