Oakdale Memorial Gardens, formerly Oakdale Cemetery, is located in east-central Davenport, Iowa, United States. It contains a section for the burial of pets called the Love of Animals Petland. The cemetery was listed as an historic district on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015. It is also listed on the Network to Freedom, a registry for sites associated with the Underground Railroad.

Oakdale was established in 1856 and designed by Captain George F. de la Roche,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Davenport Cemeteries )〕 who had finished the design of Oak Hill Cemetery in Washington, D.C. five years earlier. It was designed as a rural or garden cemetery, but it transitioned to a landscape-lawn cemetery beginning in the late 19th century. It covers more than .〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Oakdale Memorial Gardens )〕 The first burial at Oakdale was that of three-month-old Mary Larned Allen on September 15, 1857.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Oakdale Cemetery )〕 Some of the graves in the cemetery had been transferred from the overcrowded City Cemetery in the west end. The cemetery is located across Eastern Avenue from the former Iowa Soldiers' Orphans' Home, and it contains the graves of the orphans that died at the home. There are also at least 11 graves of former slaves who escaped to freedom by way of the Underground Railroad, which led to its inclusion on the Network to Freedom.
Two special receiving vaults were built in the cemetery, although neither exists anymore. A brick vault was constructed in 1873 for those who died in the winter when the ground was frozen. A wooden vault was built next to it in 1918 because of the large number of deaths as a result of the Spanish flu epidemic.
