Managing taxes as a gig worker can feel overwhelming. With miles to track, receipts to organize, and deductions to calculate, it’s easy to miss out on potential savings. Courtney, a Wag caregiver, used to struggle with these challenges—until she found Everlance.
Now, Courtney tracks her miles and expenses effortlessly, ensuring she gets every deduction she deserves. This is her story and how Everlance can help gig workers like you simplify tax season and keep more money in your pocket.
Courtney started working with Wag! because she loves dogs and wanted the chance to work with them.
“I thought there would never be a cooler job than playing with dogs all day!”
As a Wag! caregiver, Courtney spends her days offering services like dog-walking, pet-sitting, and boarding. But it’s not all fun and games—her work requires a lot of driving between neighborhoods, meeting pet owners, and managing supplies.
When tax season approached, Courtney faced the common challenge of gig workers: accurately tracking business miles and expenses.
“I also do Instacart,” Courtney said, “so I first heard about Everlance when I was doing research on the best apps to use to help track mileage and spending to make taxes easier.”
Without a reliable system in place, Courtney knew she was missing out on valuable deductions and leaving money on the table.
Courtney decided to try Everlance, an app designed specifically for self-employed individuals and gig workers. From her first day using it, she noticed the difference.
"It makes taxes easier because it allows me to track everything in one place. I love that I can mark if it is for business or personal so when I do taxes I don’t have to worry about being wrong on my deductions.”
Courtney no longer has to guess or manually log her miles. Everlance automatically tracks every trip, ensuring she captures all eligible deductions.
With Everlance, Courtney links a card to get a feed of her expenses automatically, and then categorizes them with a simple swipe, saving time and avoiding manual errors.
The app identifies potential deductions Courtney might have missed, helping her maximize her savings.
Everlance generates ready-to-go reports for tax time, simplifying what used to be a stressful process.
“I just use Everlance to track my mileage and the money I spend on my multiple different businesses so that taxes will be easier," Courtney said.
For Wag walkers like Courtney, mileage is one of the largest deductions available. By using Everlance to track her miles, Courtney ensures she deducts every eligible trip—whether she’s driving to a client’s home, picking up supplies, or heading to the park.
On average, Everlance users save $6,500 in deductions each year. That’s money that can go toward building a savings cushion, paying off debt, or pursuing dreams.
For Courtney, these savings have a specific purpose:
“I would love to one day open my own dog grooming business," Courtney says. "Working with Wag! is helping me get acquainted with dogs and dog owners in her city, gain experience working with dogs, and helping make progress on my dreams before I begin my journey to have a business someday."
