Groverland

Fully Fenced
2 acres

The pool is open!! Please remember - it needs to be added as an “extra” and there is a limit of 3 dogs in the pool for the longevity of our filter and pump :) There has been some confusion around booking the pool - you need to book the yard for at least as long as you book the yard. The yard blocks the spot on the calendar, not the pool. For example, if you book the yard for 90 minutes, the longest you can book the pool is 90 minutes (you can book the pool for less (e.g. 60 min or 30 min) if you prefer. We will provide towels, pool toys, and life jackets for your use. Please hang the towels and life jackets on the fence when you have completed your visit. Groverland is a 2 acre fenced yard so you and your furry friend(s) have plenty of room to roam. Please be sure the gate latches when you come in and when you leave. We live next to a very busy road and want to ensure everyone's safety! We have toys in a bin on the steps to the deck. Feel free to use them, but please put them back when you are done. There are poop bags and wet wipes on the toy station as well. The poop bucket is next to the gate you came in. Water dishes will be on the pavers between the pool and the house. There is also a kiddie pool for use. We do ask that you keep barking to a minimum. I have grumpy neighbors who disapprove of the Spot :) We are open from 10am - 4pm, but will sometimes make exceptions, so feel free to ask. Now for the Debbie Downer part - as the spot has gotten more popular, we are seeing things getting damaged and, as a result, have added a few rules. If you damage something, please let us know so we can address it. Things happen, so do not worry, we just need to know so we take care of it before the next guest. Pool rules: 1) No dogs on the pool furniture 2) Please do not prop the pool gate open Let us know if you have any questions! IMPORTANT - please note that we have audio and video surveillance in the yard. We are not listening to you….the surveillance is in place as documentation of the noise generated by the Spot to defend against neighbor statements of excessive noise.

I am in the process of making a new area for off leash dog play that will be a little more private. Stay tuned…. I have a dog agility training school and when we aren’t training, I have space for your dog to come play in a fully fenced arena. Please check to see if agility arena is available before coming if you wish to use it. You can also walk your dogs on leash around the farm to see the animals. I also abut a nature preserve that is private although not fenced. There’s a 10 minute poop loop walk

Frequently asked questions about Ellington dog swimming pools

Why are private dog swimming pools better than public dog parks in Ellington?

Private dog swimming pools in Ellington eliminate major public park risks: unpredictable dog encounters that scare puppies, aggressive dogs that trigger reactive behavior, chaotic crowds that overwhelm seniors or small dogs, and disease transmission from dozens of unknown dogs. Ellington's 13 private dog swimming pools offer complete privacy, professionally maintained cleanliness, and controlled environments. Whether you have a fearful puppy, a reactive adult, a fragile senior, or simply want peace of mind, private bookings give you control.

How safe are Ellington dog swimming pools compared to public dog parks?

Ellington dog swimming pools are significantly safer than public facilities. Public dog parks risk: aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission, overcrowding that triggers reactive behaviors or injuries. Private Ellington dog swimming pools eliminate these concerns—bookings are completely private, all guests have vaccinated dogs (or titers), and hosts maintain clean spaces. 93% of Sniffspot reviews are 5 stars.

Are Ellington dog swimming pools safe for reactive dogs?

Ellington owners of reactive dogs choose dog swimming pools because they offer safe, private environments for off-leash exercise without the triggers of public dog parks. Complete privacy means no unexpected dog encounters, no overwhelming chaos, no aggressive dogs. Reactive dogs can finally enjoy safe swimming while building confidence in a controlled setting. Many Ellington reactive dog owners say Sniffspot is their only safe exercise option.

Can anxious dogs safely use Ellington dog swimming pools?

Yes! Ellington dog swimming pools provide controlled environments perfect for anxious or fearful dogs. No other dogs means no triggers, no overwhelming situations. Anxious dogs can explore a pool facility where dogs can swim, practice water therapy, or cool off safely at their own pace without stress. Many Ellington dog swimming pools offer quiet, spacious settings ideal for building confidence in nervous dogs who struggle at chaotic public dog parks.

Are Ellington dog swimming pools good for small dogs?

Absolutely! Small dogs benefit enormously from Ellington dog swimming pools because they can explore without fear of being trampled or intimidated by larger breeds. Many small dog owners in Ellington avoid public parks entirely due to safety concerns—dog swimming pools eliminate that worry. Filter for appropriate sizing, secure fencing with no gaps, and hosts who understand petite pup needs.

Do Ellington dog swimming pools work for senior dogs?

Yes! Senior dogs thrive at Ellington dog swimming pools because they can move at their own pace without being knocked over by rambunctious puppies or young dogs. Look for Ellington dog swimming pools with flat terrain, easy access, shade, and smaller sizes if your senior has mobility limitations. The privacy means your older dog can rest when needed and enjoy gentle exercise without stress.

What do Ellington dog owners say about dog swimming pools?

Reviews of Ellington dog swimming pools consistently highlight: excellent privacy for all dog types, secure fencing that prevented escapes, clean and well-maintained spaces, responsive hosts, and safe environments for anxious, fearful, reactive, senior, and small dogs. Local favorite Groverland is particularly praised in Ellington. Read reviews to see real experiences from Ellington dog owners with similar needs.

How clean and maintained are Ellington dog swimming pools?

Ellington hosts maintain their own dog swimming pools and take pride in providing excellent experiences. All guests must have vaccinated dogs (or titers). Many Ellington hosts provide poop bags, trash cans, and regular cleaning. Reviews highlight maintenance quality—browse Ellington dog swimming pool listings to see real feedback about cleanliness and upkeep.
