Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: VetsApp at none against Vets Connect's 2. VetsApp also leads on ratings volume (1.5K vs 1). Vets Connect's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 days vs monthly). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
