  An <a href="/sites/cca/travel-job-search">allied travel assignment</a> can be
  more enjoyable if you bring along a piece of home. Some people travel with
  their families - including their furry members. It is not uncommon to be able
  to bring your pet along, but you&#39;ll have to do some preparation to make
  sure your pet is&nbsp;allowed and the best choice for you. Keep these tips in
  mind if you want to bring your pet on your next travel assignment.
</div>

<h2>Discuss the Topic Upfront</h2>

<div>
  Ask your recruiter about the possibility of bringing your pet with you on a
  travel assignment. They can then let you know if it is something they can
  accommodate or not, and if so, they can keep it in mind as they work with you
  to finalize your travel arrangements. If you are upfront about wanting to
  bring your pet, your recruiter will do whatever they can to make it happen or
  at least offer alternative solutions.
</div>

<h2>Allow Extra Time to Arrange Housing</h2>

<div>
  Bringing a pet with you means that you have to be more selective about the
  type of housing you choose, so give yourself as much time as possible to
  research your options. You will need to obviously find a place that allows
  animals, learn about pet deposits and rules, and make a decision on a place
  that fits your work and personal needs.
</div>

<h2>Consider Additional Expenses</h2>

<div>
  Traveling with a pet will likely require additional expenses, such as a
  carrier and additional fee if they are not small enough to travel as carry on
  for flying. Depending on your work hours at your travel assignment, you may
  also need to pay to have them kept at a them in a kennel club or pay for
  someone to walk them, which can affect your budget.
</div>

<h2>Find Pet-Friendly Places in New Area</h2>

<div>
  If you&#39;ve decided to make the arrangements and bring your pet along to
  your assignment, do some research ahead of time to find pet-friendly places in
  your travel assignment location. See if there are any dog parks, look up
  recommendations for groomers, and find pet supply stores, so you&#39;re
  prepared when you arrive with your pet in tow.
