An Easier Way In — and Out — of the Pool
Swimming should be fun for your dog — getting out of the pool shouldn’t be the hard part.
The PetSTEP Dog Pool Ramp gives dogs a stable, gradual way to enter and exit the pool without relying on pool ladders or trying to pull themselves over the edge. The soft, rubberized non-slip surface provides secure traction for wet paws, helping your dog confidently walk into and out of the water.
Designed for dogs of all sizes with a 500-lb animal weight capacity, the complete system combines the Original PetSTEP Folding Ramp with a specially designed Pool Leg Kit that supports and stabilizes the ramp in the water.
Whether you have a water-loving Lab who would swim all afternoon or a dog that simply needs an easier route out of the pool, the PetSTEP pool ramp creates a dedicated entry and exit point you can both feel better about.

Choose the Right Pool Leg Size
Choosing the correct pool legs is important for creating a comfortable ramp angle for your dog.
Standard – 23"
Recommended for pools measuring approximately 42–52 inches deep from the pool floor to the top of the pool coping.
Long – 30"
Recommended for deeper pools. The longer legs raise the ramp higher from the pool floor to create a gentler incline in deeper pools.
Important: Measure from the pool floor to the top of the pool coping, not from the pool floor to the waterline.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the PetSTEP Dog Pool Ramp work?
The system combines the PetSTEP Folding Ramp with a Pool Leg Kit designed to support the ramp inside the pool. The ramp rests against the pool edge while the legs provide a stable base underwater, creating a gradual path your dog can use to enter and exit.
Which pool leg size do I need?
Standard legs raise the ramp approximately 23 inches from the pool floor and are recommended for pools measuring approximately 42–52 inches from the pool floor to the top of the coping. For deeper pools, choose the 30-inch Long legs.
How should I measure my pool?
Measure from the floor of your pool all the way to the top of the pool coping. Do not measure only the water depth.
Will this dog pool ramp work with an above-ground pool?
It can work with compatible above-ground pools that have a deck or platform surrounding the pool where your dog can access the ramp.
Is the ramp slippery when wet?
The PetSTEP ramp uses a soft, rubberized, ridged walking surface designed to provide traction for your dog's paws, including during pool use.
How much weight can the ramp support?
The PetSTEP Dog Pool Ramp has an animal weight capacity of up to 500 lbs, making it suitable for dogs of many sizes and breeds.
Can I leave the ramp in the pool all summer?
PetSTEP recommends regular care of the pool legs rather than leaving them continuously exposed to chlorine or saltwater for extended periods. Rinsing the legs regularly can help reduce oxidation caused by pool chemicals.
Can I use the PetSTEP ramp for something besides the pool?
Yes. The PetSTEP Folding Ramp itself can also be used for vehicle and home access after the pool legs are removed.
Pool Days Are Better Together
Give your dog their own way in and out of the water — so you can spend less time worrying about how they’ll get out and more time enjoying pool days together.
