Reviews
Rex was very responsive and gave us updates throughout our trip. Our dog seemed to have a great time. Would definitely recommend Rex and his family.
Our friend couldn’t watch our dog last minute and Rex responded quickly and accommodated our last minute request so we could go out of town for our daughter’s softball tournament. He sent photos daily, took our dog for walks and when it was hot he even took him to the creek to wade. Great first experience using Rover and so glad we found Rex for future tournaments and vacations.
Rex is very attentive. He has a wonderful shaded play area for the dogs. Hershey enjoyed her stay and was able to do lots of playing, her favorite thing!
Vinny had a great time spending a long weekend with Rex and his family! We enjoyed all the updates and could see that Vinny really loved zooming around their backyard with the other pups. Thank you for everything Rex and Family!

Safety, trust & environment
Your pups’ comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities! I’ve got a spacious, fully fenced backyard—perfect for zoomies, sunbathing, and stretching those legs after a good play session. Whether your dog loves to chase, explore, or just lounge in the grass, there’s plenty of room for them to enjoy the fresh air while staying safe and secure. I also understand that every dog has different needs, so if separation is ever necessary—whether it’s for a shy pup who prefers their own space or just to ensure a calm and relaxed environment—I can easily accommodate. My setup allows for flexibility, making sure each dog feels comfortable, whether they’re in full play mode or winding down for a peaceful break. With a focus on trust, safety, and a fun, welcoming atmosphere, I strive to make every stay a stress-free and tail-wagging experience. Your pup will be cared for just like my own—happy, safe, and surrounded by good vibes!

Information Rex L. would like to know about your pet
I want every pet’s stay to be smooth, happy, and stress-free, so the more details, the better! Before your furry friend comes over, please let me know if they have any medications, special feeding instructions, or unique needs when around other animals or children. Whether it’s a strict diet, a favorite mealtime routine, or a bit of extra space to feel comfortable, I want to make sure they get the best care possible. Knowing these details ahead of time helps me create an environment where your pup can relax, play, and feel completely at home. So, if there’s anything special I should keep in mind, just give me a heads-up—your pet’s comfort is my top priority! Thanks in advance for sharing, and I can’t wait to meet your furry companion!
A typical day
A Day Full of Fun, Tail Wags, and Cozy Moments From sunrise zoomies to sunset snuggles, a day at Laughing Leash Lodge is packed with joy, play, and plenty of belly rubs! 🐾 Morning Fun – The day kicks off with a game of fetch, where the pups get to stretch their legs, show off their speed, and revel in the thrill of the chase. Whether they’re a champion retriever or a proud “you threw it, now you go get it” type, we tailor the game to their personality. 🐾 Outdoor Adventures – Weather permitting, we spend ample time in the backyard, letting the pups roam, explore, and engage in a little friendly wrestling (for those who enjoy it). There’s plenty of space for zooming, sniffing, and rolling around in pure doggy bliss. 🐾 Water Shenanigans – On special days, we hit the water for a swim! Whether it’s a splash-filled paddle or just some cautious toe-dipping, pups who love the water get to enjoy the extra excitement of a fun, refreshing swim. (with owner's permission, of course!) 🐾 Evening Wind-Down – As the day winds down, the pups curl up for a movie night, snuggling into the best spots on the sofa (yes, they totally claim them first). Whether it’s an animated classic with wag-worthy excitement or just some soothing background sounds, it’s the perfect way to wrap up a day of play. Every pup’s personality shines here, and whether they’re energetic adventurers or laid-back cuddle experts, they’ll have an experience tailored to their comfort and joy. Their visit is all about happiness, relaxation, and making sure those tails keep wagging! 🐶✨
