The Dovetail
Approach
SEAMLESS FIT
Esther, the owner of Dovetail, is a detail-oriented, organized Mompreneur that loves numbers and puzzles. As a remote bookkeeper for your business, she will aim to fit in seamlessly with your business operations, for a fraction of the cost of having a full-time bookkeeper on staff.
INTEGRITY & RELIABILITY
Esther values honesty and reliability, and strives to give her clients the details and information they need in a timely manner in order that they can make accurate business decisions.
Certified Bookkeeper
Esther is a Certified QBO ProAdvisor, and has an Intuit Academy Bookkeeping certificate.
11+ Years of Experience
Esther has eight years of experience in full-cycle bookkeeping for two different charities. Since starting Dovetail Bookkeeping, she has also been working with small business clients for over three years.
Affordable Rates
Dovetail offers monthly bookkeeping packages, depending on your needs or business complexities, as well as hourly services. Esther can handle all your monthly bookkeeping needs, or just one part that you want to outsource.
Dovetail’s roots are in Grande Prairie, AB and West Kelowna, BC, but Esther can work remotely with anyone in Canada.
WHO WILL I WORK WITH?
Esther Gardner
OWNER OF DOVETAIL BOOKKEEPING
I am a very detail-oriented, conscientious, and organized person. I have worked with charities and sole proprietors for over eleven years, and began Dovetail Bookkeeping in 2022. My main interest is helping sole proprietors get organized and grow their businesses, and especially those in service, construction, or the trades. I get excited about ways that technology can help you track things more quickly and efficiently, so that you can succeed!
At Dovetail, my mission is to provide comprehensive, reliable, and personalized bookkeeping services that empower businesses to focus on their core activities while maintaining financial clarity and compliance. Through these services, I aim to ensure accuracy in financial records, provide insightful financial reporting, and support strategic business decisions.
Together, we’ll elevate your finances to new heights, unlocking the potential for success that your business deserves. Thank you for considering me as your trusted bookkeeping partner.

M.L., Kelowna Seniors Home Support
“Esther helped us get our rental property bookkeeping sorted and continues to help us create our year-end reports each year. Not only did she research what we needed to report, but she created a special spreadsheet for us to help us track everything each year. Our accountant was impressed with her organization and said we were lucky to have her help. If you have the opportunity to have Dovetail Bookkeeping take care of your books, you should take it!! Esther is responsive, smart, and helpful.”
