Owner Courtney K. Haughey is Saskatoon born and bred. She began her financial career as a finance assistant with Galon Insurance, where she laid a strong foundation in the industry. After completing multiple courses and building years of experience, Courtney made the bold decision to launch her own business in 2020 during the height of the pandemic. What began as a solo venture quickly evolved—first as a consultant with her first client, Full Throttle, and then as a growing business. In 2023, Courtney hired her first employee, Brittny, marking an exciting new chapter for CKH Bookkeeping & Payroll.

Today, CKH Bookkeeping serves a range of small businesses in Saskatoon and beyond, including clinics, retail stores, auto industry businesses, tech companies, and startups. With a client sweet spot of up to 25 employees, Courtney and her team specialize in making bookkeeping stress-free. They handle the details so business owners can focus on what they do best.

Personal relationships are at the heart of Courtney’s approach. She takes the time to get to know her clients and their goals, and she’s committed to growing her business at a steady pace with the right clients, without feeling pressured. 


Courtney's clients couldn’t say enough good things when we spoke to them. Time and again, they described her as trustworthy, professional, and someone they would recommend without hesitation. She takes pride in showing clients what their business can look like with the right financial support—clean, efficient, and stress-free.


“ I am extremely pleased with the services I receive from CKH Bookkeeping. Courtney is not only easy to work with but also provides prompt support and invaluable advice. Her dedication to ensuring I am well-educated on best practices in financial management has been instrumental in improving my financial decision-making.” -Rachel Drew, CEO of Cadence Final Document Services Ltd.


“ CKH Bookkeeping & Payroll provides me and my growing business with the most efficient and reliable bookkeeping support we have ever received. During her time with the Speech Language Network Ltd., owner Courtney Haughey has helped build employee packages and has put numerous functional systems in place surrounding accounting, billing processes, and onboarding new staff. Courtney is exceptionally organized, friendly, and prepared, and ensures things flow, bills are taken care of and everyone is paid on time. In addition, she always goes the extra mile to ensure you understand everything and is readily available for consultation with our team members. Courtney Haughey is a gift to my business and has fostered development and growth. I would recommend her without hesitation to any organization looking to streamline their bookkeeping and payroll systems, to ensure their teams are taken care of and that the books are accurate and up to date.  " - Kara Broks, The Speech Language Network

Celebrating 10 Years of Excellence: Wiebe Windows & More

At Trusted, we are thrilled to celebrate a significant milestone for one of our outstanding Trusted Saskatoon partners—Wiebe Windows & More, who are marking 10 years in business in 2025! Since joining the Trusted Saskatoon directory in 2017, Wiebe Windows & More has been a pillar in our Saskatoon Window & Door category. We are proud to promote and support this exceptional local business.

10 Years of Excellence

Founder Bradley Wiebe has been working in construction and installing windows and doors in Saskatoon and the surrounding area since 2004. Raised on a farm just outside Saskatoon, Bradley’s strong work ethic and values were shaped early on by helping his parents on the family farm. Those same principles of integrity, accountability, and hard work have been the foundation of Wiebe Windows & More Ltd. since its inception in 2015.

In 2019, Bradley’s wife, Anna, officially joined the business. This was a full-circle moment for us at Trusted Saskatoon, as Anna had previously worked with us as an account manager, so she knows firsthand what it means to be Trusted! Today, Anna plays a crucial role in the business, looking after marketing, administration, and project coordination—and isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty helping on-site when needed, and she recently started her own business Phoenix Home & Estate Organizing- they also have a busy family  life with  4 active children 

Wiebe Windows & More lives up to their tagline: “A View You Can Trust.” Their commitment to quality craftsmanship and customer satisfaction is clear in every project they take on. But what truly sets them apart is their unwavering dedication to the community.

The Wiebes are passionate about giving back. They are longtime supporters of the Mending Little Hearts Fund of Saskatchewan—a cause close to their hearts, as their son William underwent open-heart surgery in 2016. Anna volunteers her time managing social media and organizing fundraisers for the charity, and the entire family pitches in for events and the annual CHAMPS camp. Their generosity doesn’t stop there—they are also a hands on sponsor for TLC @ Home, a local grassroots non- profit that distributes shoeboxes of gifts to several Saskatoon community schools - Wiebe helps with deliveries and also helped with loading the schools in 2024, they also donate up to $500 in toys, toiletries, mitts etc and Anna volunteers many hours to fill the shoeboxes. In addition, they sponsor a Christmas meal each year for a local family in need, in partnership with Boryski’s Butcher Block.

In 2024, their outstanding community efforts were recognized when they received the SABEX Community Investment Award from the Greater Saskatoon Chamber of Commerce—a well-deserved honour for a business that continues to lead with heart.


Bradley and Anna, we at Trusted Saskatoon applaud your incredible decade of service, craftsmanship, and compassion. Thank you for being a valued partner and for consistently demonstrating what it means to be a Trusted business in Saskatoon.

Here’s to your continued success and many more years of helping Saskatoon families see the world a little more clearly—through windows installed with care and integrity. Congratulations on 10 wonderful years!

Bragging About Sanctuary Spas & Re-Creation: Trusted Saskatoon Hot Tub Sales & Repair

The Trusted Saskatoon Team is excited to welcome Lauren and Julie of Sanctuary Spas & Re-Creation as your Trusted Saskatoon Hot Tub Store, specializing in sales, service, maintenance, and repair! As our go-to Saskatoon, Warman, Martensville and area experts for hot tubs and hot tub repair services, Sanctuary Spas & Re-Creation is here to help you select the perfect hot tub for your lifestyle. We're thrilled to have this dedicated team joining us. Their commitment to quality, integrity, and client satisfaction makes them the perfect addition to our Trusted Saskatoon community! They offer a complete range of services, from hot tub maintenance and repairs to assistance with chemicals and filters. Dive into our latest article and get to know the remarkable team behind the brand.




Meet Sanctuary Spas & Re-Creation: Saskatoon & Areas Premier Hot Tub Haven!


From the moment I stepped into Sanctuary Spas & Re-Creation, located just a short drive on the outskirts of Warman, Saskatchewan. I felt a genuine warmth and welcome. The space is beautiful and stocked with an impressive wall of hot tub chemicals, filters and supplies. There is an atmosphere of undeniable calm and relaxation.

I had the pleasure of meeting owners Lauren and Julie Penner, a dynamic husband-and-wife duo and proud parents of two delightful children. Lauren’s journey into the hot tub industry began in 2002 when he transitioned from training as an auto mechanic to working as a hot tub service technician. After years in the field, an opportunity to acquire a local hot tub repair business inspired them to establish Unaffiliated Hot Tub Home Care. Their focus on honest repairs over purchasing a new hot tub quickly earned them a loyal clientele who appreciated their integrity.


Now, with a showroom in their new location, the business has evolved into Sanctuary Spas & Re-Creation. This new name truly reflects their mission to create peaceful backyard sanctuaries for their clients. 


As Lauren says,


 “Our goal has always been to find the best solution to meet our customers’ needs.”


So, their recent decision to offer Softtub, a premium Canadian plug-and-play hot tub brand, and to be the exclusive dealers of Bellagio Luxury Spas gives customers options that best suit their budget, needs, and lifestyle, further exemplifying this commitment. They not only provide hot tub repair, but the addition of these brands allows customers to purchase hot tubs and all the supplies.


Sanctuary and a Place of Restoration

The name Sanctuary Spas & Re-Creation embodies the heart of their brand. Lauren and Julie believe that a hot tub should be more than a luxury—it’s a place of rejuvenation and peace where one can recharge from life’s demands.


 “Relax. Refresh. Reconnect.” is their motto.


Sanctuary represents that peaceful place, while Re-Creation speaks to their dedication to restoring and rebuilding the person and providing “peace of mind” through their products and services.


We met Lauren & Julie when they initially contacted our sister company, Trusted Marketing Services. They were looking for marketing assistance, and we worked with them to create their new brand, which they unveiled at the 2024 Warman Open For Business Expo. They were amazing to work with, and once we got to know more about them and their business goals, we knew they would be a GREAT fit for the Trusted Saskatoon community! 

What do their Customers Say?


“Lauren has been incredible to work with! We bought our Bellagio Hot Tub from him, and his service, knowledge, and helpfulness were great. I totally recommend Sanctuary Spas to anyone needing a hot tub!” - Del Ehlert


“ I got my hot tub through Home Depot and of course, there is nobody that can help with service or maintenance when you buy from them. I searched for and found Lauren, and they are great to work with! I was so impressed with how kind receptionist Kathleen was when I called in. She was so friendly and helpful and I felt very quickly like we had known each other for years. They went above and beyond trying to find replacement jets for me. They are honest, responsive, affordable and were good about communicating with me. I recommend them for sure!” - Terry Graham, Saskatoon

How Does Trusted select Trusted Saskatoon businesses to partner with? 

  • We look for locally accountable businesses with a reputation for quality-driven excellence in the Saskatoon market.

  • Customers, clients, and suppliers nominate businesses they are impressed with.
