What’s better than embracing the open road and the great outdoors? Bringing your four-legged friend with you, of course.
Many of us who love to hike, swim, camp, and spend time outdoors also have pets at home. Why not bring them with you? There are thousands of trails and parks in the country where (leashed) dogs are allowed, but the same can’t quite be said for travel accommodations like hotels or rental houses.
Until recently. And so goes another perk of campervans.
We looked into which rental van companies allow pets, how many, and under what conditions — so your whole family can enjoy the van life on the road.
Walden Campervans

Located in: Woburn, Mass.
Unlike campervan rental services that don’t allow pets, or ones that do but charge a no-matter-what cleaning fee, Walden Campervans fully embraces and encourages pets to join your adventure. The “Mardy” van’s $100 pet package includes:
- integrated built-in crate
- doggie bowls
- dog first-aid kit
- tether leash
- and more pet goodies
Of all the campervans companies that “allow” pets, this one, if you are near the East Coast at least, has got to be the one to beat.
Book a TripCamper Van North America
Located in: Bozeman, Mont.; Seattle, Wash.; Denver, Colo.; Las Vegas, Nev.
With all of Camper Van North America’s rentals, a pretty reasonable $45-$90 one-time pet fee (up to two dogs) applies. And this one-time fee is definitely cheaper than finding a dogsitter or boarding your dog.
If the open road is calling and you want to test the waters with bringing your pet along, Camper Van NA’s budget-friendly pet protocol is a great choice.
