Can I Travel with my Family or Pets?

Absolutely. Your pet or family members can go with you to an assignment, but the housing might be a bit trickier. Most travel nursing agencies provide only a one-bedroom apartment, a studio apartment, or even an extended stay hotel.

If you require more room, you will have to pay the difference for the upgrade to a place with more space. You may have to take the housing stipend and search for your own housing arrangements to accommodate your family.

If you plan on traveling with a pet, be sure to let your recruiter know about this right away, so that they can find pet-friendly housing options. Keep in mind that there may be restrictions in regard to the weight and breed of your pet. Learn more about traveling with pets to a nursing assignment.
