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!

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:)

I spent three weeks volunteering at Muttlands, and loved this experience. Whilst the days are long, the work with the puppies is fun and encouraged to be creative for both dogs and humans. Tasks which help maintain the property are also quite diverse, I helped clean, paint, garden and organise. We have one day off per week, and whilst the property is quite remote, if determined, there are opportunities to visit surrounding areas. I feel proud to have been able to help out at Muttlands, and will cherish my time here with the dogs and humans I now adore!

On the first day, it was a bit overwhelming, but it got more enjoyable with each passing day! I liked the routine; the tasks were varied, and I fell in love with the dogs. There were five of us volunteers, and we had such a great time together—it was amazing to meet so many people. I also really enjoyed the food, especially the red curry. Looking back, I really value this experience and would definitely recommend it. You’re not only doing something for the dogs but also for yourself!

I had a great time at Muttland. It felt great to be part of the project. Beside of playing and carrying about the dogs which was so lovely, it felt good helping to build up this place.
And if you are lucky you will be in a group of other volunteers and you will have even more fun.
