What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Business owners who hand over their ledgers to My Own Bookkeeper describe a service built on reliability and exactness, with Jessica and Rebecca named repeatedly as the people who keep the work on track. Several clients note that lodgements are kept current and that the books stay compliant with the tax office, a point that comes up often among those who switched from another provider.

The practice is described as professional yet approachable, with clients mentioning that Jessica is easy to contact, quick to respond and patient when reconstructing incomplete records or untangling complex accounts. More than one review highlights that she works closely with the client's accountant, which suits businesses wanting their bookkeeping and tax affairs aligned. Attention to detail is a recurring theme, alongside fair pricing for the scope of work involved.

Longer-term clients speak of a relationship measured in years, saying the books are handled accurately and on time so they can concentrate on growing their operations, staffing and marketing. Taking over from a previous bookkeeper, the team is credited with rebuilding missing items and having the accounts in order without fuss. Small and established businesses alike describe the same experience: a dependable bookkeeping service that lifts the administrative load.

I'm not sure how we found Jess but she has completely changed our small business. She has an in-depth knowledge of the Xero program and as a result of her tuition for the first time in 30 years of business we had our books completed for submission two days after end financial year. I could not recommend Jess more highly due to her knowledge of Xero and her patience.

Since using the services of My own bookkeeper I can honestly say I’m able to function a whole lot better as a business, focusing on growing the business, staff, promotions, marketing and all aspects of business I used to leave due to not having a quality bookeeper. Highly recommend

Jessica from My Own Bookkeeper was recommended to me by a Chartered Accountant colleague. After our first meeting I knew that she had the skills to manage the complexities of my client. However I was more than pleasantly surprised that she not only articulated what we needed but she has subsequently demonstrated these skills, taking over from the previous bookkeeper she patiently reconstructed missing items and within no time had the books as they should have been. Her service, and communication has been an asset to myself and my client. I would thoroughly recommend Jessica and her team at My Own Bookkeeper. Michael Prior Chartered Accountant
