We believe relationships are everything

Our Story

We cherish the bond people share with their pets and know just how meaningful that relationship is. No one should have to determine the value of their pet’s health and wellness because of the ever-rising cost of pet care. Pets are family, and family comes first!

1995

Pet Assure was established to bring pet care savings to every pet family.

2016

Shepherd Veterinary Software was founded by Dr. Cindy Barnes, on the basis that vets deserve joy.

2018

We added pet insurance to our suite of pet benefits and formed Pet Benefit Solutions.

2019

Shepherd Veterinary Software joined the Synergy Pet Group family.

2019

Max’s Corner was created to provide educational pet-related content to our visitors.

2020

We designed ThePetTag to help pets return home safe, because home is where your pet is.

2020

We launched Total Pet Plan, a simplified plan packed with pet benefits.

2021

We rolled out Wishbone Pet Insurance, a pet health insurance plan designed exclusively for the employee benefit space

2021

Pet Assure Corp no longer represented all of us on a day-to-day basis. Thus, we became Synergy Pet Group.

2023

We dove back into the consumer market headfirst with our ‘best-of-breed’ routine veterinary care plan, Mint Wellness by Pet Assure.

2023

By revitalizing our DVM Galaxy brand we now bring a broader spectrum of digital marketing services and custom websites to busy veterinarians.
