SwitchStay was born out of a simple yet powerful idea: finding short-term, hassle-free housing should be easy, especially for professionals constantly on the move. Whether you’re a medical student on a clinical rotation, a traveling nurse, a visiting professor, or a digital nomad, we know that securing a comfortable place to stay is crucial—but often frustrating. That’s why we created SwitchStay: a smart, seamless platform designed to connect those who need a temporary home with those who have one to offer.
Initially, SwitchStay started as a way to help medical students easily find short-term housing during their rotations. But we quickly realized that the need extended beyond just students—healthcare professionals, academics, and business travelers all face similar challenges. So, we expanded our platform to include a broader community, offering a trusted space for anyone seeking or offering flexible stays.
