As a pastime activity, we love visiting cat cafes in Singapore and even pet cafes in JB. However, the pawrents amongst us have pets whom we may sometimes tend to neglect due to our busy working schedules. If your doggos are in need of some pampering, treat them to some tender loving care at Fort Canine Swimming Club – a new pet recreation centre with a mineral pool.
Fort Canine Swimming Club has a mineral pool for dogs to swim in. Mineral pools have lower concentrations of chlorine compared to regular pools, and they contain minerals like magnesium and potassium chloride. These minerals provide benefits like stimulated hydration, muscle relaxation, and detoxification.
Mineral pools are more suitable for pets as they are gentle on the eyes and sensitive skin, providing a safe environment for your pets to swim in comfortably.

Located at Clarke Quay, Fort Canine Swimming Club is a new addition to the pet facilities in Singapore, boasting the largest indoor dog pool enriched with minerals such as magnesium. The pool was built by Mutts & Mittens, a highly-rated doggy daycare centre that offers pet boarding services.

What makes this indoor pool extra pet-friendly is its sloped floors, rest areas for your pets when they are tired, and even life jackets for those doggos that can’t swim. Plus, the mineral-enriched water is heated and salt-free, so you don’t have to worry if your pet has sensitive skin.

As part of their opening promotion, a 1-hour swimming session here would have an entrance fee of $38. You’ll be able to admit 1 dog and 2 adults, and you’ll be entitled to 15 minutes in their cubicles for showers and 15 minutes in the drying area. Do note that you have to bring your own hair dryers.

Apart from bonding activities in their pool, they also have The Pet Physio – a team of experienced dog therapists who aim to help your pets recover from injuries with advanced medical treatments. Their physiotherapy services include dry needling, laser therapy, peripheral magnetic stimulation, and hydrotherapy which are done to relieve pains and inflammations.

In collaboration with The Pets Workshop, a pet grooming centre with multiple outlets in Singapore, you can now send your pets for a spa and grooming session at Fort Canine Swimming Club too.
Providing grooming services since 2021, the team here has trained stylists with SKC Class C certifications, so you can rest assured your pet will be in good hands. For their grooming services, they offer haircuts, bath and fluff, and dental checkups.
We suggest trying out the Herbal Spa Treatment (from $30), where more than 20 herbs are used to heal skin conditions such as eczema and yeast infections.

If you’re looking to restock your pet pantry, you can visit Heads Up For Tails (HUFT), their pet retail store with a wide selection of treats and pet toys. Their pet care products also include bedding, bowls, and clothing to cater to every need your pet has.

After a day of pampering your pets with grooming services and physiotherapy, you can refuel yourselves at ROLLIN, a pet-friendly cafe serving cheese-crusted hot dogs.

What separates their hot dogs from regular ones is that they use freshly baked olive focaccia buns, german sausages encased in collagen, and condiments that are sodium nitrate-free. Some of the must-trys here would be the cheese-crusted Bacon Delight ($13.90), Cheesy Beef Bolognese ($15.90), and finger food like their Mozzarella Cheese Sticks ($6.90).
