About the Dog House Pet saloon

  • Industry: Pet grooming, boarding & daycare (3 Houston locations)
  • Services in scope: Website redesign, SEO, Google Ads, Local SEO, Conversion tracking
  • Goal: More bookings without inflating ad spend
 

The Challenge

  1. Outdated website UX. Slow load times and a 6‑step booking flow hurt conversions.
  2. Stalled growth. Traffic and calls plateaued despite steady ad budgets.
  3. Data blind spots. Universal Analytics sunset left leadership comparing apples to oranges.
  4. Crowded market. Houston is packed with groomers chasing the same “near me” keywords.
 

Our Strategy (Search Everywhere Blueprint)

0. Website & UX Redesign

Before touching traffic channels, we rebuilt the site on a lightweight WordPress stack, streamlined navigation, switched to a two‑click “Book Now” funnel, and cut load time from 5.8 s → 1.9 s (Lighthouse mobile). Core Web Vitals went all‑green.

Technical & Content Overhaul

  • Fixed keyword‑stuffing across legacy blogs → Yoast green lights.
  • Swapped hard‑coded maps for Yoast Local blocks to inject LocalBusiness schema.

Local Pack Domination

  • Whitespark citations + UTM‑tagged “Book Now” buttons inside each Google Business Profile.
  • Map Rank Tracker tuned to location‑level KPIs (Pearland, Memorial, Galleria).

Paid Media Precision

  • Split P‑Max Retargeting from prospecting to protect warm‑audience ROAS.
  • Re‑launched the “Female Campaign – Pet Grooming” ad group with fresh creative.

Radical Transparency

  • Live Looker Studio dashboard (“Dog House Budget Report”) pulls GA4, Ads, GBP & Semrush into one view—no spreadsheets, no guesswork.
