Ever wished your job involved playing with dogs all day? If your daily commute has ever been filled with daydreams of cuddling pups instead of sitting at a desk, you’re in for a treat! MUTTS Canine Cantina, a Texas-based dog-friendly restaurant and dog park, is searching for a special new employee—its very first “puptern.” This lucky individual will have one main duty: to hang out with adorable dogs, giving them all the love and attention they deserve.
The Canine Playground at MUTTS
MUTTS Canine Cantina is a unique spot that combines a restaurant with an expansive outdoor dog park. Pet parents can join as members, granting their pups access to the off-leash playground, complete with spaces to run, fetch, and socialize with other dogs. At the Dallas location, pups can even test their skills on a dog agility course. With dozens of dogs arriving daily to socialize, play, and bond with their humans, the puptern will be there to keep every tail wagging.
Bringing Pup-Lovers Together
Situated near Texas Christian University, MUTTS originally envisioned this role as a fun gig for college students looking to relax and connect with their community. “We wanted to introduce them to MUTTS in a fun, engaging way,” says Kyle Noonan, co-founder of MUTTS. The puptern’s role will be simple but joyful—welcoming guests and offering a friendly face (and lots of pets!) to each dog who visits. The puptern will make MUTTS feel like home for every furry visitor and their owners.
How to Apply for This Dog-Lover’s Dream Job
Think you have what it takes? MUTTS is inviting anyone 18 or older with a knack for dog cuddling to apply by showcasing their best dog-petting skills on Instagram. Just post a picture or video of yourself with a pup using the hashtag #MUTTSpuptern. Applications will remain open until November 12, after which the team at Fort Worth will choose one very lucky candidate to join the team. The position even pays $100 an hour—talk about a dream job!
May the Best Puptern Win!
With hundreds already applying for the role, the competition is fierce, but MUTTS will choose just one person to fill the role. Whoever snags the position is in for a unique experience filled with slobbery kisses, wagging tails, and plenty of belly rubs. So if your frisbee skills are as strong as your puppy-snuggling ones, make sure to highlight that in your application. For one lucky dog-lover, this “pupternship” might just be the beginning of the ultimate career!
