How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Banfield Pet Hospital

Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

Compare prescription pricing

Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.

Consider pet insurance

Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

Nov 7th was a horrible day for me and my husband. We had to say goodbye to our 17 year old cat, Missy. She was our baby!!! I can not say enough about Banfield in Cranberry from the minute we walked in to start the process to the minute we left.... the compassion they had was beyond words... 2 weeks after we pick up her remains we received a sympathy card signed by the staff... THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!! ❤️❤️

I’ve been using Banfield services for 11 years. I’ve always gone to Tarentum. Most recently, my 17 year old needed care. Tarentum had no openings. I contacted Cranberry. Diane answered. She triaged me so that she could relay what my concerns were. Dr Skiba called me back. She saw my Benny the next day. His condition had worsened. Dr Skiba and I spoke about Benny’s care. She was very compassionate. A couple of days later I ultimately had to lay my Benny to rest. This was an agonizing decision. Dr Skiba and her staff treated us with kindness and gentleness. They prepared a very comfortable warm environment for Benny and me. When the time came Dr Skiba and her tech (I apologize I don’t remember her name) sat right down on the floor with us. I laid Benny in the cozy little bed. I was allowed ample time and space to sit with my Benny. Dr Skiba and her staff made my extremely difficult situation as comfortable as possible. Thank you so very much for your comforting words and gentle compassion. 4/29/24

The entire staff is wonderful!! The vets are caring and thorough, and the receptionists are SO incredibly kind and helpful. Anytime I call, the front desk team members are pleasant and attentive. Cannot say enough good things about my experiences here. Thank you to the Banfield Cranberry team!

They were very accommodating to my exotic pet bunny. She was at risk of GI stasis and they got her in the same day. I like that they offered various treatment options with prices. They were short on my medication but had more the next day to pick up. They lost a star for putting a diagnosis in the paper receipt (dental issue) and not mentioning it to me and also not calling/emailing to follow-up. My other vet always called to see if things had resolved which means alot to me that they care. Banfield is great and affordable in a pinch but not as thorough if you can wait.

Good services, staff mostly friendly. Every time we schedule an appointment or ask for a medication refill it is always within a reasonable time frame. We have not had to wait an extended period for anything, overall good prices and services for our fur babies. Photo of one fur baby included
