Who we are
We're a software company, but we're in the veterinary business. We've been there for the dewormings, the vaccinations, the 2 a.m. barn calls for a laboring mare, the angry pet owners, the overjoyed pet owners, the exhausted pet owners, and the wriggling litters. We've seen it all, and we're here to remind you: You deserve joy.
What we believe
Vets deserve joy. Joy is why you got into this work in the first place. Remember? It wasn't because...
At Shepherd, we believe vets deserve joy.
Joy is why you got into this career in the first place. Remember? It wasn't because you love staying up late to finish your records or balance your books. It was because, even before you ever understood what a career was, you wanted to help animals. You wanted to be the one to tell a family their best friend is going to be okay, and the shoulder to cry on when it's time to say goodbye. You understood that the bond between a human and a pet has a magic that makes the world a happier place. Being a guardian over that bond is what drives you.
But oftentimes, that joy gets lost in the chaos of running a productive practice. Spending hours catching up on paperwork. Working late to fit in every patient, even when your schedule is already full. Celebrating a new life just moments after witnessing the end of another. Your days start early and never really end because you're constantly wondering what you could have done better, how you could have done more. And somewhere along the line, you forget about you.
You give up so much to be the caregiver you are. Time with family, your emotional health—not to mention paying off student loans. And it's too often you feel you have nothing left to give, yet you tell yourself this is how you should feel. We're here to tell you: it doesn't have to be this hard. Running a business doesn't have to eclipse the love you have for your work. In the midst of the unavoidable lows and overwhelming highs, it's still possible to rekindle your joy.
You deserve to get as much as you give. You deserve to feel peace at the end of the day. You deserve to take home more stories and less stress.
From vet to vet, we're here to remind you: You deserve joy.
Meet our founder
Dr. Cindy Barnes is an experienced emergency vet and medical director of the first 24/7 emergency animal hospital in Northern Arizona.
Dr. Cindy Barnes,
DVM, CVSMT
Dr. Cindy Barnes
Dr. Cindy Barnes knows how difficult it is to run a veterinary practice, provide the best care, and, on top of it all, try to savor life too. With 20+ years in the field and experience as the Medical Director of the first 24/7 emergency animal hospital in northern Arizona, she saw how administrative inefficiencies and clunky software programs worked against her—causing her to spend hours after each shift finishing the day's medical records—instead of for her. Plus, they were wildly expensive.
She knew that there must be a better way and that being a vet—being able to improve the lives of pets and their people—should bring a whole lot more joy.
So she started building Shepherd: veterinary practice management software that intuitively matches how vets and technicians actually operate.
We're driven by making the best vet software out there and making sure you're always supported

HOBBIES
I love just anything outdoors - kayaking, hiking, backpacking, camping. I enjoy daydreaming about home renovations because let’s face it, I am a messy painter and terrible carpenter. I also enjoy a good netflix binge watching day. Oh, and I have been “working on” a 1972 camper renovation for about 634 days… there goes the day dreaming and terrible carpentry skills again ;)
FAVORITE THING ABOUT SHEPHERD
Is “everything” an answer? Honestly though having worked in a practice I know the struggles of the day to day and I love how Shepherd strives to improve their lives as a whole, in and outside of software. Vets (and teams) deserve joy, right?
PETS
Two dogs, but don’t tell one of them I called her a dog. She really is a princess. The other one is a hero dog who saved my son from being bitten by a rattlesnake when he was little. Oh, and like 100 yard birds who eat way too much bird seed.

I was almost in an Oscar Meyer weiner commercial (“Oh I wish I were an Oscar Meyer weiner, that is what I’d truly like to be….”) when I was 3. The minimum age was 4 and the casting director tried to get my mom to lie about my age so that I could be in the commercial (at least that’s what she claims). But she had to stick to her values and refused.
