Brave Dog Bookkeeping
Brave Dog Bookkeeping is Maple Ridge’s go-to bookkeeping team for small businesses and self-employed professionals, with over 8 years quietly helping local shops, contractors and creatives keep their finances tidy. They’re known for straightforward, no-surprise books and practical advice that actually saves time at tax time. If you want someone who knows BC rules, GST/PST filing cycles and CRA filing idiosyncrasies, this is the local firm people recommend.
They handle day-to-day bookkeeping, payroll setup and processing, HST remittances, and monthly bank reconciliations using QuickBooks Online and Xero. Need catch-up bookkeeping after a busy season? They’ll bring your books current and produce clear profit and loss and balance sheets. They prepare quarterly GST reports, manage T4 and T4A filings for contractors, set up job costing for trades, and export clean datasets for accountants at year end. They also create simple monthly dashboards so you can see cash flow and margins at a glance.
Their approach is practical and approachable. You’ll work with owner and head bookkeeper Sarah (bookkeeping diploma, QuickBooks Certified ProAdvisor) or another certified technician, not an automated phone tree. They arrange an initial 60-minute review, then a realistic schedule—weekly, biweekly or monthly—to fit how your business operates. They use secure cloud tools and explain numbers in plain language, sending reconciled reports and receipts that make tax conversations simple. Turnaround times are clear, and prices are quoted before work begins.
Maple Ridge business owners value Brave Dog for dependable follow-through and local knowledge, from farmers markets to construction crews. People choose them because they relieve bookkeeping headaches, free up owners to run their businesses, and show up when deadlines matter.
