When I registered u/SwampRangers, my first step was to ask the GAW mods if it was allowed to post because it references SwampRangers.com. u/catsfive was very welcoming and explained that a little high-effort aligned self-reference is not necessarily self-promotion (my words). So it would certainly be forum-supportive to keep us advised on your activity without overdoing it. Obviously it should start with whatever content is easy to assemble until you decide on a CMS. If your strategy is merely to redirect or frame (consider a search like https://scored.co/search?query=groomer rather than the main page), then you need to funnel all your energy into advertising.
I don't know that you need to transfer the domain if Hostgator works for you; the DNS provider is largely apolitical. A host is more important and this site uses Cloudflare. I don't know if Wordpress is at risk of shutting you down or not, but you either take a package (Wikimedia is another, any BBS is another) or build your own. VOIP (Vonage) has served us well for phone.
You have a good domain that should last well the first year, but that doesn't mean monetization. For that you need a strategy and probably multiple heads. You may draw some traffic via the name and the adverts but you need to funnel and build affinity after that.
