01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Kimmy's Cats & K9's shows above-average health on Google Business, with a 6.9/10. The listing already has essential basics like title, claimed status, phone number, and a website link. The primary finding is that descriptions are too brief, and photos are strong but could still be boosted to reach the top 10%.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    ClaimedYour listing is claimed, so you control what it says, you can reply to reviews, and edits suggested by the public come to you first.
  • ✓
    NameYour business name is showing on the listing, so a customer searching for you by name finds you, and everything else on the listing hangs off it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Description lengthThere is no real description on your listing, so when someone finds you on Google there is nothing in your own words telling them what you do.
  • 2
    Category fitYour categories cover less of this market than nearly every competitor, so someone searching for a job you actually do is shown a list your listing was never entered into.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou carry more photos than most of this market, which gives a customer a real look at the work before they ring.

02ReviewsMarketbase business report

Your reviews

Kimmy's Cats & K9's shows a modest health score of 5.7 out of 10 for Google reviews. The most notable strength is a strong listing with outstanding total reviews, placing the business in the top 10% for social proof. A key area for improvement is the lack of responses to reviews, which can weaken trust among customers and potential clients.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Review countYou hold one of the deepest review banks in this market - social proof that does its own selling.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Response rateNone of your reviews have a reply, which means a customer reading them sees your happiest and your angriest customers with nothing from you in between.
  • 2
    Star ratingYour rating sits below what half the businesses here carry, which gives a customer choosing between three of you a reason to pick one of the others.
  • 3
    Review confidenceRating and volume together put you ahead of most of this market, which means a customer sees a well-rated business with enough reviews behind it to be believed.

Where customers find you

Kimmy's Cats & K9's shows a below-average health score of 4.1 out of 10 in Marketbase's social presence assessment. Strengths include a high-trust Facebook profile and an accurate Yellow Directory listing. The main opportunity is building missing profiles and directory entries across Instagram, TikTok, TikTok Directory, Neighbourly, and LinkedIn Company to improve visibility and trust.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Having a Facebook page at allWe found your Facebook Profile page, and the trail is strong enough that nobody would question it is yours - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.
  • ✓
    Yellow ProfileWe can see your Yellow Profile listing (https://yellow.co.nz/y/kimmys-cats-k9s-579362548) found via: Google search results.
  • ✓
    White Pages ListingWe can see your White Pages Listing listing (https://whitepages.co.nz/animal-vacation-maces-road-2) found via: Google search results.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe could not find an active Instagram Profile profile for your business, so a customer who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    Where your page link pointsThe link on your page goes to a domain that is yours, so a visitor who came for the photos leaves on your terms and the enquiry lands in your inbox rather than someone else's.
  • ✓
    A page address you choseThe address on your page carries your business name, so a customer told about you at a barbecue can find the page by typing what they heard.
  • ✓
    A phone numberA phone number shows on your page, so the person who found you on Facebook before they found your website can ring straight from it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Recommendations on your pageYou hold fewer recommendations than the middle of this market.
  • 2
    What your page says about youYour intro runs to a line, shorter than most pages here, so it names the business without settling whether you do the particular job the reader came about or cover the suburb they live in.
  • 3
    People following your pageYour following sits ahead of half the pages here, so an ordinary post reaches a real local audience without you paying for it.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Kimmy's Cats & K9's shows an average on-page SEO health with a score of 5.1 out of 10. The top findings indicate missing or weak base elements: no detected on-page SEO score, no homepage title tag, and no homepage meta description. There is also no valid favicon and some HTTPS linkage issues that could affect trust and click-throughs.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Domain UniquenessYour web address is yours alone, so everything your site earns - links, mentions, search standing - accumulates under your name and stays with the business.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    On-page scoreYour home page did not return anything we can measure, and a page that will not answer a scanner is usually the same page that keeps a customer waiting.
  • 2
    Separate sites linking to youNo separate website links to yours.
  • 3
    Meta descriptionYour pages carry no summary line of your own, so the two lines under your name in search results are whatever Google decides best fits the search.
