Rovie
Hi! My name is Rovie! I’m the Roving Coach mascot and yes, I’m a girl. The Roving Partners are all women, so it was only fitting that I should be female too. Here is my story; I hope you’ll find it interesting. By the way, I am a fictional character, of course (just making sure you knew that – although, wouldn’t that have been cool if I HAD been a real dog and then CJ, our Chief Rover, started a business named after me?!) Fun fact: I LOVE chasing squirrels! It’s my favorite thing in the whole world, besides creating world peace, that is. Check out my personal page.
