WordPress Redesign for Dog Services

I’m looking for an experienced WordPress developer to properly rebuild and upgrade my existing website so it is faster, ranks better locally, and converts visitors into paying customers. This is not a cosmetic refresh. I want a clean, professional, high-performing site built the right way. The site promotes a local business offering: Dog boarding Grooming Kennel services Everything in the design should make pet owners feel confident and guide them clearly toward booking or contacting us. Key Requirements: 1. Clear Service Focus Dog boarding, grooming, and kennel services must be: Immediately visible Easy to understand Prominently featured on all devices 2. Conversion-Focused Design Strong, obvious calls-to-action Simple booking/contact flow Trust-building elements (reviews, photos, credibility) Clean, uncluttered layout 3. Speed & Performance Fast load times (target: ~2 seconds or better) PageSpeed Insights in the green Core Web Vitals passing Proper image optimization, caching, and clean code 4. SEO (Local Focus) Proper on-page SEO (titles, meta descriptions, headings) Local SEO targeting Foothills County / near Spruce Meadows (not just Calgary) Schema markup, internal linking, and solid page structure 5. WordPress Build Quality Built in WordPress (Elementor, Beaver Builder, or clean custom theme) Must be lightweight and not bloated Easy for me to edit and maintain going forward 6. Tracking & Tools Maintain or properly reconnect Google Analytics and Search Console SEO plugin setup (Yoast or Rank Math) with proper structure Deliverables: Fully redesigned, mobile-friendly website Speed optimization with before/after results SEO improvements across core pages Conversion-focused homepage and service pages Simple handover instructions so I can update content myself What I’m Looking For: Strong portfolio of real WordPress redesigns Someone who understands performance + SEO + conversions (not just design) Clear communication and practical recommendations To Apply, Please Include: Examples of similar work (especially service-based or local businesses) What you would improve on my current site Your recommended approach (theme/builder and why) Timeline and cost estimate If you’ve taken a slow, underperforming site and turned it into a fast, high-converting one, I’d like to see it.
