Bookkeeping is the day-to-day foundation of your financial records. It covers categorizing transactions, reconciling accounts, and keeping your numbers accurate and current.

Accounting builds on that foundation by using those records for deeper financial analysis and tax preparation. At Sunrise Accounting, we prioritize clean, reliable bookkeeping first — so that when it's time for taxes or major financial decisions, everything is already in order and stress-free.

We specialize in bookkeeping services for small businesses, independent contractors, freelancers, and e-commerce sellers. Whether you're a sole proprietor just getting started or an established LLC managing multiple revenue streams, we have the experience to keep your books clean and your finances clear.

We work primarily with QuickBooks Online, which is the industry standard for small business bookkeeping. If you're already using another platform, we're happy to discuss whether it fits your needs or whether a transition makes sense. We handle the setup and ongoing management so you don't have to think about the software at all.

We don't prepare tax returns in-house, but we work closely with trusted CPAs and can fully coordinate the tax filing process on your behalf. Because your books are kept clean and current throughout the year, your tax preparer has everything they need — which often means a smoother process and lower accounting fees. We help you stay prepared year-round so there are no surprises come tax season.

Yes. We help small businesses stay on top of sales tax, B&O tax, and other excise tax obligations by making sure all sales and transactions are recorded correctly. We'll help you understand what you owe, keep your records organized for filing, and coordinate with your tax professional when needed. Our goal is simple: no missed deadlines and no guesswork.

Absolutely. We regularly work with platforms including Square, Stripe, Shopify, and PayPal, making sure every transaction is recorded accurately and reconciles with your bank deposits. Whether you're selling online, in person, or both, we make sure your books reflect what's actually happening in your business — not just what's sitting in your payment processor.

Most clients start with our base package, and we guide you from there based on your business size, transaction volume, and needs. As your business grows or your situation changes, we'll let you know if a higher level of support makes sense. There's no pressure and no upselling — just the right level of service for where you are right now.
