Careers at Muttville

Lead With Heart. Work With Purpose. Laugh Often.

At Muttville, we are redefining what animal sheltering looks and feels like. Our cage‑free rescue in San Francisco is joyful, fast‑paced, and powered by community. Dogs roam freely, volunteers are central to our success, and kindness, creativity, and accountability guide everything we do.

Since our founding in 2007, we have saved more than 13,000 senior dogs, creating new beginnings for over 1,300 dogs each year. Our work is powered by more than 600 dedicated volunteers who help make it all possible.

The Muttville Method is a set of core values that define how we work together and make decisions. Here is what that looks like in action:

• We foster positive relationships with each other and our community, recognizing that strong partnerships fuel our mission.
• We prioritize quality of life, creating real connection through our cage‑free model.
• We utilize volunteers to the fullest, empowering them to help us save more dogs.
• We lead with a make‑it‑work mindset, staying flexible and solution‑oriented.
• We keep it simple and focused, honoring defined roles while helping wherever needed.

Your ideas help shape programs, your work saves lives and creates new beginnings, and your compassion makes a difference every day.
