A local edge

Local know-how pays off in Moncton

Moncton gets freezing rain or drizzle on 14.5 days a year, and March alone takes 3.4 of them. That is the night the power drops and an unfamiliar house cools fast. February sits at minus 12.7 overnight under 65.0 cm of snow. Check the furnace before bed and open the cupboards under the sink. Annual snowfall is 309.9 cm, and the driveway is yours by morning.

When demand peaks

March break closes New Brunswick schools March 1 to 5, 2027, and that week books as whole stays rather than visits. The Family Day long weekend on February 15 does the same over three nights. Summer opens when classes end on June 25 and runs through the New Brunswick Day weekend of August 2.

Know your Moncton areas

The West End and the North End are where a stay beats a drop-in, because a house needs someone in it overnight. Moncton sends contractors onto residential streets after 5 to 8 cm falls, and the plow leaves a windrow across the driveway. The city bars pushing that snow onto the sidewalk.

Breeds you will meet in Moncton

Owners here mostly keep Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, German Shepherd, French Bulldog. Knowing how those breeds behave, and saying so on your profile, is what turns a first booking into a repeat client.

Bilingual owners book faster

Expect booking messages in French. In 2021, 21,375 Moncton residents gave French as their only mother tongue against 45,765 for English, and the city's call centres hire on that bilingual base. Answer in the language the owner opens with.

Moncton areas that book the most

House sitting in Moncton is booked by households who leave for a week at a time, mostly over March break and the summer school gap.

New Brunswick licenses no dog walker or pet sitter. Moncton's Animal Control By-law H-1322 calls a dog running at large when it is off a leash of three metres or less in a public place, and section 8(1) puts that on the owner. Section 2 requires a licence for every dog unless the dog carries a microchip, and H-1322 sets no cap on dogs per dwelling. Pet-care income is self-employment income, reported on form T2125 with your T1 return. GST/HST registration is required once taxable revenue passes the CAD 30,000 small-supplier threshold in four consecutive quarters.

How is house sitting different from boarding in Moncton?
With house sitting you go to the owner's home; with boarding the pet comes to you. House sitting suits pets that do better in their own space, and it is billed per night the same way.

Mostly around the school calendar. New Brunswick's March break runs March 1 to 5 in 2027, and Moncton house sitting gets booked as whole weeks then. Summer opens when classes end on June 25. Winter stays carry one extra job: the car comes off the street when the city calls an overnight ban.
