Rover Park
Gym Sessions include access to Rover Park - our 5000 sq ft, fenced in offleash park! A great way to relieve Rover in between workouts.
There's something magical about a happy dog's smile – it sparks our best endorphins!
Swimming is the ideal low-impact activity for dogs, offering a perfect blend of conditioning, endurance, stamina, and valuable bonding time with Rover.
Doing gradual exercise like swimming regularly helps build muscle strength, effectively reducing the risk of injuries for Rover.
Research indicates that dogs left inactive from 9 am to 5 pm, only to receive a burst of activity with a thrown ball, face a higher likelihood of tendon and muscle tears. Providing consistent activity is key to maintaining your furry friend's well-being!
