Muttlands

Muttlands, located in the serene countryside of Rayong, is nestled amid nature and fruit trees, and conveniently close to mountains, beaches, lakes, and national parks. Home to over 30 delightful rescue pups, it offers a perfect active working vacation for dog lovers and nature enthusiasts alike.

This project is a part of VetVan Thailand - animal welfare organisation that prevents stray animals from suffering by spaying, rescuing and treating. It’s a non profit thats helped over 20,000 animals since late 2017.

You can help us in variety of ways - by dog care and cleaning as well as promoting us on social media or even small construction work - the choice is yours!

Volunteering here is a rewarding community experience unlike any other. You will immediately become a part of the family and feel at home. We love Volunteers to apply their super-powers - you will not be boxed in by ideals, rather encouraged to use your skills and passion to improve the lives of the animals. Volunteers just like you are our biggest asset!

As we're a charity organization, all money we get in donations go to the dogs. The fee we charge is solely to cover the costs of your stay, so we can keep helping the most vulnerable animals. We do not make any money on this project.

Food and accommodation provided, as well as unlimited puppy cuddles and entertainment :) We hope you'll love our Tribe!

My time at Muttlands was truly amazing. The dogs were incredible, and it was so rewarding to spend time with them. The tasks were varied and fairly distributed depending on whatt was needed. A particularly touching moment was visiting the clinic, an experience I will never forget.

The teamwork with the other volunteers was great, and Jazmine is such an inspiring person who has dedicated her life to the dogs. It felt wonderful to be part of such a meaningful and important cause.

My time at Muttlands was amazing! We were 6 volunteers during the time I was there, so we were able to split the tasks pretty well. Besides some other tasks, we got to spend a lot of time with the dogs, also cuddle and play with them a lot. The dogs are really friendly and appreciate all the attention they get. You can feel that the people there love what they‘re doing and are motivated to help all the dogs in need!
It could be exhausting sometimes, but it‘s worth it! I‘m already exited to return to Muttlands one day!

Muttlands is my home ❤️ I returned for a second time and have still not left because I adore the dogs and feel part of a family here

I have worked in other shelters, with more money / amenities for the dogs but Muttlands dogs are truly the happiest and this speaks volume! The dogs are so well looked after and receive so much love

Jazmin is undeniably committed to the dogs and animal welfare, but also cares deeply about her volunteers . The schedule is fair, working conditions are good and you make such a huge difference to the lives of the dogs

Muttlands is a truly special place. The work is varied and fair as everything is organised to improve the lives of the dogs and the dogs themselves are the absolute sweetest. The volunteers I worked alongside have a special place in my heart and Jaz is an absolute legend, the amount of work she does and for the length of time she's been doing it is inspirational. I also definitely recommend going along to a spay clinic if you get the chance.

If you love dogs above all else, get down to Muttlands and contribute to something bigger than yourself! Thank you for having me ♥️

I really loved my stay at Muttlands. The dogs are lovely and I will really miss them. The daily tasks with the dogs are fun and if you really love dogs it's the place to be!
There are also tasks that are different every day, such as painting, gardening, power washing etc.
I would recommend this place to everybody who loves dogs and who has no problem that this place is in the middle of nowhere. (There is one lovely café within walking distance)
I was very lucky with the people I got to meet during my stay. Thank you for this lovely time:)
