There are a few rules about taking a non driving partner out on the road. They will be asked to sign an insurance waiver by the company. Also when going into the US, they will need to be listed on the customs e-manifest. Don't forget to buy some good travel insurance such as Blue Cross. If you are going to "Live-aboard", try and work for a company that has a well equipped home-base with showers , laundry, internet, kitchen-lounge-tv room.
