Backport PR #33089 on branch 1.0.x (BUG: Don't cast nullable Boolean to float in groupby)

@@ -21,13 +21,15 @@ Fixed regressions
 - Fix performance regression in ``memory_usage(deep=True)`` for object dtype (:issue:`33012`)
 - Bug where :meth:`Categorical.replace` would replace with ``NaN`` whenever the new value and replacement value were equal (:issue:`33288`)
 - Bug where an ordered :class:`Categorical` containing only ``NaN`` values would raise rather than returning ``NaN`` when taking the minimum or maximum  (:issue:`33450`)
+- Bug in :meth:`DataFrameGroupBy.agg` with dictionary input losing ``ExtensionArray`` dtypes (:issue:`32194`)
 - Fix to preserve the ability to index with the "nearest" method with xarray's CFTimeIndex, an :class:`Index` subclass (`pydata/xarray#3751 <https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/3751>`_, :issue:`32905`).
