What is on record
The Shepherd catalogue entry carries no price and a quote pricing model, but no tier breakdown. The category comparison below is still useful, and the Shepherd review carries the full feature record.
What the product covers
The full Shepherd feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.
Other
- Consultation-first records
- Charges from treatment
- Inventory
- Cloud-based
People bring Shepherd in for practices losing revenue to treatment delivered but never billed, clinics replacing on-premise legacy systems, independent practices wanting something designed around clinical work rather than administration. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Shepherd are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Veterinary
Too few veterinary tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shepherd (this page) | On request | quote | - | |
| Covetrus Pulse | On request | quote | - | vs Shepherd |
| Digitail | On request | quote | - | vs Shepherd |
| Vetspire | On request | quote | - | vs Shepherd |
| Provet Cloud | On request | quote | - | vs Shepherd |
| ezyVet | $260.5/month | subscription | - | vs Shepherd |
Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Shepherd badges page.
Before you pay for Shepherd
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: not published on the record we hold. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Shepherd against the tools that do have one before committing.
Shepherd runs on web, cloud, and is published by Shepherd Veterinary Software of United States. The full record is on the Shepherd review, and the rest of the category is under best veterinary tools.
Shepherd pricing questions
- How much does Shepherd cost?
- No price is published on the record we hold for Shepherd, which is listed as quote. The vendor's own site is the only reliable source for the current figure.
- Does Shepherd have a free plan?
- Not on the record we hold: Shepherd is listed as quote. Whether a free trial is offered is not something this record captures, so check the vendor's site.
- What am I actually paying for with Shepherd?
- The record lists 4 features across 1 area: other. In practice it is brought in for practices losing revenue to treatment delivered but never billed, clinics replacing on-premise legacy systems, independent practices wanting something designed around clinical work rather than administration.
- Does Shepherd charge per user?
- The record carries a price and a billing period, but not the unit that price is charged in. Per-seat and flat-rate billing look identical in this data, so check the vendor's page before budgeting for a team.
- Are these Shepherd prices current?
- They are what the catalogue entry holds, refreshed when the entry is. Vendors change pricing without notice and nobody at Softwr re-verifies each tier by hand, so treat this as a structured summary and the vendor's own pricing page as the authority.

- The closest veterinary tools in this directory are Covetrus Pulse, Digitail, Vetspire, Provet Cloud. Each has a side-by-side comparison with Shepherd covering price, platforms and features.
