 In reality , the cottage belongs to seven adult dwarfs , named Doc , Grumpy , Happy , Sleepy , Bashful , Sneezy , and Dopey , who work in a nearby mine . Returning home , they are alarmed to find their cottage clean and suspect that an intruder has invaded their home . The dwarfs find Snow White upstairs , asleep across three of their beds . Snow White awakes to find the dwarfs at her bedside and introduces herself , and all of the dwarfs eventually welcome her into their home after they learn she can cook and clean beautifully . Snow White keeps house for the dwarfs while they mine for jewels during the day , and at night they all sing , play music and dance .
