Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

The project background

With lots of researches and validation, core features and attributes of the platform are identified. We are now looking into launching to the market by Q1 2022. Hence, we are looking into building our first minimum viable product (MVP) to acquire our first group of customers. Without a partner with IT and technical knowledge, building a MVP is not an easy task.

The project details

This project is not only about coding and web pages development. Participants of the project are expected to gain hands-on experience not only on website development, but also user journey design, user experience, web design, web analytics and digital marketing.

The core items to be delivered in this project included:

  • Pet sitter search function
  • Pet sitter profile template
  • Booking forms for new and returning customers
  • Pet sitter registration forms

As the website of FurrySitter is already in place on WordPress, these new functions and pages will be “add-on” to the existing website.

These newly set up pages are also expected to follow best website practices by having web analytic coding ready, responsive to the mobile screen and search engine friendly.

Project expectation

  • The website is expected to be ready for launch by Mar 2022 at the latest.
  • For students who are not familiar with website design, you can team up with your friends and schoolmates to cover up each other.

Finding a perfect pet-care professional is always hard for pet parents. They found that good pet-care professionals are always fully booked, but they hesitate to try new pet sitters with uncertain service quality. They find it hard to get immediate pet-care support when something comes up too.
Therefore, FurrySitter is developing a service to expand pet parents to more options and ease pet parents’ worries about pet-care service quality by combining traditional pet-care knowledge and technology. By affiliating with pet-care professionals in different districts, pet parents will access a wider group of pet-care professionals. At the same time, the application of technology and gadgets for more real-time updates can provide extra relief to pet parents.
