I had a great experience with Banfield! I had a drop off appointment and was really nervous about how stressful it might be for my lab, especially since it was her first time there. The staff were so kind, they let me stay in the room with her and explained everything clearly. I also signed up for the wellness plan which is super affordable and even includes discounts on medicine! I highly recommend this location, thank you to the staff for being so friendly and accommodating.

We have four Banfield pets and have been clients for many years. We love the service at the Hutto location and the convenience of locations in other cities. We had our daughter at UNT register her cat in Dention where he was serviced until he was with us right now at the Hutto location.
Very good team to work with!

What is an Optimum Wellness Plan?

You can spread the cost of your wellness plan across the 12 months of your annual agreement to make it easier to budget for the essential health care your pet needs.
