Our story, team, and values

CV Bookkeeping started with a simple belief: small business owners deserve bookkeeping that’s accurate, on time and never makes them feel judged.

Meet Corrie Verheijen

Hi there! I’m Corrie.

I’m a Certified Professional Bookkeeper (CPB) and Certified Advanced QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor, and I started CV Bookkeeping in 2021.

CPB is a professional designation for bookkeepers, awarded by CPB Canada (Certified Professional Bookkeepers of Canada). In 2022, I was named Emerging Leader of the Year at CPB Canada’s Bookkeeping Excellence Awards.

As a service-based business owner myself, I understand the importance of keeping your books in order. That’s why I’m passionate about helping entrepreneurs get and stay organized, so you can take the stress out of bookkeeping and get back to doing what you love.

I also have a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and Political Science from the University of Alberta (2008), and I’m a trained photographer. A selection of my photography is part of Strathcona County’s permanent art collection.

In my spare time, I combine my creative side with my inner nerd: I love to sew clothes and play video games.

Our team

The people behind your books

Corrie Verheijen, CPB

Founder and senior bookkeeper

Your main contact for monthly bookkeeping, reports and your review meetings.

Su Hardy

Innovation Specialist

The heart of our team. Su keeps things running, gets out networking with local business owners, and herds the cats (sometimes literally).

And the office cats

Reuban the cat

Reuban

Corrie’s office cat

The boss, and a lazy one. Not afraid to tell you what to do, though under the tough exterior he is a complete softy. He and Lillian are a bonded pair, adopted from SCARS in 2025.

Lillian the cat

Lillian

Corrie’s office cat

Not a lap cat. An independent, very vocal hunter who rarely wants pets, but will happily use you for warmth. She’s probably not actually in the office right now.

Su’s cat and head biscuit maker

Aka Carma. When she’s not crunching treats and chasing balls, she loves to pop into video calls to greet everyone.

Kind words from colleagues

What fellow bookkeepers say

“What distinguishes her services is her proactive approach, consistently providing valuable insights and recommending new applications to streamline operations. Her exceptional communication skills and ability to simplify complex concepts have made our collaboration seamless and enjoyable.”

Beth, Aja Bookkeeping

“I’ve been consulting with Corrie for about a year now and she is always on top of what apps might be helpful for my business, likewise for processes and best practices. She’s been easy to work with and very professional.”

Jamie, My Accountess

Who we are

We’re queer-owned, a little weird, and happily outside the box.

We don’t measure success by the profit line alone. We measure it in calm clients, fair prices and the community we give back to.

Come as you are. Your books don’t need to be tidy, and neither do you.

Community and money resources we love

Our values

What you can count on

Wise and curious

Always learning, so your books follow the latest rules and tools.

Grounded

Steady, reliable, and honest, month after month.

Warm

Ask anything. You’ll never feel silly or judged.

Precise

Every number reconciled and every detail checked.

Artful

Bookkeeping treated as a craft, with care in every report.

Giving back

Our annual commitment to giving back

Each year, we donate a share of our profits to a charity or organization that resonates with our values. The organizations change year to year; the commitment doesn’t.
