Rover.com, a network of reputable pet sitters and dog walkers, is hosting "the UK's First Dog Swimming Gala" this summer, encouraging pet owners to beat the heat with their dog in a fun way.
At the dog swimming gala held at the West Reservoir Centre in Hackney, pet parents will be able to treat their pets to icy dog treats, fun games in the water and free 20-minute swimming sessions. Doga may also be entered into an aquatic race to win a month’s worth of free dog walks with one of the many five-star walkers available through Rover. As well as being able to offer their pet a refreshing way to cool off, pet parents will also be able to enjoy dog-themed inflatables and take advantage of talks on general pet care.
The dog swimming gala from Rover is being launched to promote the network's new website.
