Patrick Sullivan, James Wolf, Minh Nguyen, Matthew Michael Staley

Code Name: Project Mayhem

Mission Statement:Our mission is to provide the safest and most loving environment for your pet while you are away. We strive to offer the most personalized, convenient, and cost effective approach to pet boarding for our clients. For our sitters, we strive to provide them with the right tools so they can conduct their business in a professional and efficient manner.”

Vision Statement: With Pet Sit n Stay, your animals are in good paws.

Elevator Pitch: Project Mayhem will work with Pet Sit n Stay in developing a user-friendly interface that will allow customers/sitters alike to find exactly what they are looking for. Promoted sitters will be visible to customers from the get-go, sitters and customers will be able to interact before boarding in order to work out a deal that is ideal for both parties, and users will be able to sign-up with Facebook in order to network in a more efficient fashion.

Business value: Project Mayhem has the potential to increase Pet Sit n Stay’s productivity by 20%.

Customers and Users: The customers will be the users looking for sitters, and the users will be the customers and sitters alike.
