  PawGuide static sitemap — canonical, indexable URLs only.

  This file previously listed 59 URLs, 54 of which were /search?q=…
  parameter pages. Those pages emit `noindex` (SearchResultsPage.jsx), so the
  sitemap asked Google to index pages the site simultaneously blocks. Only
  genuinely indexable URLs belong here — do not re-add /search? URLs.

  /about, /contact, /privacy and /terms were listed but have no routes in
  src/App.js; they are omitted until those pages exist.

  Per-business URLs (/business/:id) are listed dynamically by the
  backend at https://paw.guide/sitemap-businesses.xml (generated at
  request time from the database). The sitemap index references
  both this static file and the dynamic per-business sitemap.
