Project Problems

  • Fragmented Digital Presence: The client operated from multiple successful physical locations but lacked a single, cohesive, mobile-optimized website, leading to poor brand recall and confused customers.
  • No Integrated Booking: Service bookings (daycare, grooming) were handled manually or via an outdated system, resulting in scheduling errors, staff burden, and lost revenue opportunities after hours.
  • Zero E-commerce Revenue: Despite a popular physical store, they had no platform to sell retail pet supplies online, missing out on a massive e-commerce market segment.
  • Poor Local Search Visibility: The website failed to rank effectively for hyper-local search terms, limiting organic lead generation in key service zones.

Project Solutions

WebCityLab implemented a strategic three-pillar solution:

  1. Unified Digital Hub: Designed and developed a sleek, high-speed website centered on an intuitive, location-aware service finder. We used Geo-Targeting and Multi-Location Schema Markup to tell search engines exactly where each service was available.
  2. Seamless Booking Flow: Integrated a custom-developed Booking API, allowing customers to check availability, select specific services (Dog, Cat, Small Animal), and pay securely—all within a single, highly optimized workflow, drastically reducing friction.
  3. E-commerce Launch: Built a robust and scalable WooCommerce shop, optimizing all product categories and pages for long-tail keywords, immediately positioning the client to compete with major online retailers in the pet supply space.

📈 Project Results

  • Local SEO Dominance: Achieved Top 3 Ranking for 80% of high-value service keywords (e.g., “dog daycare St Henri,” “pet grooming NDG”) within 9 months.
  • Revenue Growth: Online service bookings saw a 150% year-over-year increase post-launch, translating directly into higher operational capacity and revenue.
  • Conversion Rate Improvement: The site’s overall conversion rate (booking/sale) improved by 35%, validating the effectiveness of the new UX and CRO strategies.
  • Time Savings: Reduced manual administrative work related to bookings by an estimated 20 hours per week for the client’s staff.

Les Anges Gardiennes is a premium pet store that needed a custom Shopify store to showcase its products and services for pet owners. Starting from client-provided PSDs, I transformed the designs into a fully responsive e-commerce site using Shopify’s Impulse theme—rewriting Liquid code, CSS, and JavaScript to ensure pixel-perfect fidelity.

Key Deliverables:

  • Pet-Optimized UI/UX: Custom product grids for pet categories (food, toys, accessories), intuitive navigation.
  • Dynamic Features: Custom filters (by pet type, size), subscription options for recurring purchases.
  • Consultation Forms: Built tailored forms for pet grooming/services with secure submissions.
  • SEO & Content: Researched pet industry keywords, optimized metadata, and added a blog for pet care tips.
  • Visual Branding: Designed cohesive graphics aligning with the store’s compassionate, pet-loving identity.

The project required cross-functional expertise—from Shopify development to pet niche SEO—resulting in a delightful online destination for pet owners that drives sales and engagement.
