Garrett Mino
Owner & Operator
Garrett brings extensive expertise and creativity to each and every project.
In addition to being the ‘face’ of the company, he handles the day-to-day operations and maintains wonderful relationships with all of our past and current clients – many of which have become great friends!

He’s a man of many talents and brings a fun and relaxed attitude to each project!
Julie Mino
Client Relations
Meet Ms. MiniPools herself… Julie!
Julie is on the front lines of MiniPools and is usually the first point of contact you’ll talk to when reaching out to us.
She is fun-loving, creative, and well-equipped to handle any questions you may have about what we do and how we operate.
Outside of MiniPools, Julie is a devoted mother to 5yo twins and a gifted artist that channels her creativity into interior design, unique pools and abstract art!
She brings a positive ‘can-do’ attitude to every conversation and project that we undertake!
Noah Walker
Business Development
Noah handles all things business development for MiniPools and is your go-to guy for specific questions about the design and build-process for your new pool!
When he’s not visiting with clients, Noah loves training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, playing piano & guitar, and being below-average at golf (😅). He’s also a former Division 1 baseball player for Texas State University and brings a winning, optimistic attitude to each project.
If you’re along the I-35 corridor between San Antonio and South Austin – reach out to Noah to find out if MiniPools is right for you!
Michael Whittaker
DFW Area Manager
Meet Michael!
Michael grew up with Garrett in the Austin area, and even though he went to the rival high school, we don’t hold it against him 😜!
Michael has run projects ranging from $500 to $1 million in all aspects of construction. Michael joined the team from Fort Worth (watch out Dallas, he’s coming to you soon)! Michael has always had a passion for design and construction, and takes particular pride in the schedule and processes associated with each project. During construction his goal is to keep communication open, keep on schedule and understand you still need to operate at your house with out being too disrupted!
Outside of pools, Michael spends most of his time with his family on the Texas Coast fishing for trophy trout.

Mini Pools are Making a Splash with San Antonio Homeowners
Donna Muery had never heard of a plunge pool until a friend mentioned it to her.
Bigger than a whirlpool spa and smaller than most standard pools, a plunge pool — also known as a cocktail pool, mini pool, dipping pool and spool — can comfortably accommodate up to six adults (eight if they’re truly friendly) while leaving plenty of backyard space for gardens, seating and play areas.
Although there are no set standards, plunge pools tend to be no larger than 10 feet by 20 feet, compared to an average of about 15 feet by 30 feet or larger for traditional backyard pools. They are also flat-bottomed and no more than 5 feet deep.
