Get more out of your veterinary software
Shepherd is intuitive cloud-based veterinary practice management software that helps you take home more stories and less stress.
Shepherd works the way you do
(because it was built by vets like you)
Traditional veterinary practice management software creates unnecessary complexity, friction, and burdens.
Shepherd’s veterinary software streamlines practice management—giving you more time, more fulfilled teams, and more opportunity to provide the best care.
Cloud-based software created just for vets
Increased efficiency
Administering treatments automatically adds them to an invoice—and attaches any discharge instructions.
Shepherd records and pushes approved estimates to treatment plans before the patient even leaves the room.
Easy to use
With an intuitive (and, dare we say, beautiful) interface, you'll get the hang of Shepherd on day one—and love it every day after.
Added support
Shepherd is like having an additional team member (or 10) that helps you provide the best care—so you can stop taking paperwork home each night.
Software success stories
More Than A Software
"I literally demoed a dozen PIMS," Bennett says. Then, after numerous software test drives with several major-brand veterinary management software platforms, Bennett "landed on Shepherd," which he says best suited his practice's needs.

Invoice automation eliminates missed charges and improves your bottom line
Studies show veterinary practices lose as much as $60,000 in revenue per year per full-time doctor due to missed charges for simple add-ons and procedures. That's money you earned—and it's getting lost.

What we believe
Because Shepherd was born of the belief that vets deserve joy, it was designed to work the way vets work—and built to make that work a little easier.
Meet our founder, Dr. Cindy Barnes, who's on a mission to simplify running a veterinary practice so vets can rekindle their joy and lead more fulfilled teams.

Because of the amount of time Shepherd saves me doing my medical records, I now have time to stop by and see my granddaughter on my way home from work.

Veterinarian and Practice Owner, McKean County Animal Hospital
The onboarding process for Shepherd was seamless. We have been 100% on paper for over 40 years, and Kate helped break up the overwhelming thought of transitioning into phases which helped ease everyone's mind. I can not recommend Shepherd enough to anyone in the veterinary industry.
