Pet Care and Supplies – PetsVets

ABSTRACT

Due to the increase in demands for pets in India, the idea to make a web application with the same concern of pet care and supplies stuck on my mind. The profit margin based on the problem is also very high and growing rapidly. The most emotional feature is that when we love someone, or we are attached to someone then money does not come into the picture to think about. Alike the emotional thing, pet owners also want to spend much caring time for their pet and get best product and supplies for their pet. The goal of this project is to develop a website and help people save money on pet health products on providing affordable pet supplies with excellent customer service considering the need of the customer. The basic features provided by the app would be Pet food, pet grooming products, depending on the categories and breed. The purpose of this web application is to explain the architecture of pet industry while stating the key fact in pet care and supplies market. This aims at making the application user friendly hence adding the chat bot services and where user can ask any query related to the products or if any help required and web push notification service, it is an alert style messages that slide in at the top or bottom right-hand corner of a desktop screen, depending on the operating system. Web push notifications are delivered on a user’s desktop or mobile device anytime they are connected to internet and have their browser open. Also, for this project Linux server will be used for hosting with cPanel, it is the most popular web hosting platform, offers features commonly used by web designers.
