お (masu-stem) + する
Explanation
The お〜する pattern is a humble form used when the speaker performs an action for someone else, often in service or polite contexts. The お prefix attaches to the verb’s masu-stem to show respect and humility, and する remains the auxiliary verb that completes the action. This form expresses that the speaker will undertake the action with deference toward the listener, and it is commonly used in customer service, formal requests, or polite self-actions.
