See how animal welfare organizations transformed their financial operations with Animal Kingdom Accounting.
Sunrise was managing a $2.1M budget across 12 grant programs with a single part-time bookkeeper using spreadsheets. They'd failed two consecutive grant audits, nearly losing $400K in federal funding. Board members couldn't get reliable financial reports, and the ED was spending 15 hours per week on financial firefighting instead of mission work.
Davis didn't just fix our books — he gave us a financial infrastructure that actually works for an organization our size. Our board chair said it was the most professional financial package she'd seen in 20 years of nonprofit board service.
— Maria Gonzalez, Executive Director, Sunrise Animal RescueOperating across five states with different charitable registration requirements, Heartland was unknowingly out of compliance in three states, risking their ability to fundraise. Their Form 990 was consistently filed late with errors, and they had no centralized financial reporting across their partner network.
We conducted a full compliance audit, filed corrective registrations, standardized their chart of accounts across the network, and implemented quarterly consolidated reporting. Their 990 is now filed 60 days early with zero errors.
We had no idea we were out of compliance in three states. Animal Kingdom Accounting caught it, fixed it, and built a system so it never happens again. That alone was worth years of fees.
— David Park, Board President, Heartland Humane AllianceA small but mighty wildlife rehab center was running entirely on the founder's personal accounting. Bank reconciliation was three months behind, they'd never tracked restricted funds separately, and their volunteer veterinarians needed proper 1099 documentation.
We set them up on QuickBooks Online with a clean chart of accounts, caught up three months of reconciliation in two weeks, established fund accounting for their restricted grants, and automated their monthly close process so the founder could focus on saving animals.
I started this organization because I love animals, not spreadsheets. Davis and his team gave me my evenings back. I haven't opened a bank statement at 11pm since we started working together.
— Dr. Kenji Watanabe, Founder, Pacific Coast Wildlife RehabThe board package Davis delivers every month is something our board members actually read. For the first time in our history, our finance committee meetings are productive instead of painful.
We went from dreading our 990 filing to having it done two months early. The peace of mind alone is worth every penny. Plus Davis actually understands how shelters work — he speaks our language.
I was spending every Sunday night catching up on bookkeeping. Now I spend Sundays with my family. Animal Kingdom Accounting gave me my life back while making our finances bulletproof.
Our grant funder told us our financial reports are now the gold standard among their grantees. Coming from a $50K/year rescue, that credibility is transformative. We've since been approved for three additional grants.
What I appreciate most is the proactive communication. Davis doesn't wait for problems — he flags things before they become issues. When our state changed its reporting requirements, he had us updated before we even knew about it.
The client portal is a game-changer. I can see exactly where every deliverable stands, upload documents securely, and message Davis — all in one place. No more hunting through email threads.
