On-demand dog walking platform.

Our client approached us through Goodfirms to build his mobile startup that helps connect pet owners and dog walkers. They signed-up for an onsite project wherein we had to develop an on-demand mobile app for dog walking services. Objective
Provide one pager website, build wireframes and communicate in such a way that it does not touch upon the hurdles of linguistic communication barriers.
Upon approval of designs, develop UI/UX friendly mobile app for Android and iOS platforms.
Over and above common features in the dog walking app, inclusion of features that can help users learn about early warning signs, learn first aid steps, and take quizzes on pet health and safety.
Finally, listing of the app on Play-store and App store.
This dog walking mobile app development project brought unexpected challenge for us. It was something like making an Uber app for Dogs.
Everything was clear in client’s mind but was a bit hard to understand the client due to Language barrier. He was hardly able to communicate in English.
To understand this project in detail we took design understanding approach. Here, he used to give hand drawn images with proper tags. We understood the whole project almost from hand drawings and designed it.
We adopted an agile approach to define, design, develop and deliver this project into agreed timelines.
