Project Summary

QBurst scoped, developed, and launched a mobile-first marketplace (Pet Connect) connecting pet owners with service providers. They delivered the core foundation within six months and launched in December 2016, then continued to iterate on features driven by user feedback. The engagement produced measurable traction (100 businesses signed up and downloads across 34 states) while QBurst maintained competitive pricing and reliable delivery.

Key Challenges

Needed an integrated web and mobile app developed for the pet services business

Project Deliverables

Mobile-first web and mobile application
iOS app
Android app
Marketplace platform connecting pet owners with service providers
Product delivery schedule and milestones

Project Solution

QBurst scoped the project, defined timelines and milestones, translated requested features into a delivery schedule, and developed a mobile-first marketplace web and mobile application. They built the iOS app first, then assigned a developer to Android; that developer later became a full-time frontend developer for both platforms. The vendor delivered the core foundation within six months and supported ongoing incremental improvements.

Project Outcome

100 businesses signed up
App downloaded and used by users in 34 different states
Team scaled from three to one after core delivery, then expanded again with a second full-time developer and one dedicated project lead

Quality of Deliverables

“QBurst reliably achieves what they promise and does so at a competitive price. Another impressive trait is their ability to prioritize features more critical to the core solution. Time zone differences are challenging but rarely undermine important progress.”
