VCA Bakerstown Animal Hospital

Our Story

We know that pets aren’t "just animals"—they are important members of the family. We will spend as much time as you and they need to keep them healthy. We stay current with the latest developments in veterinary medicine through frequent continuing education meetings. On difficult, challenging cases we readily refer to the area’s specialty hospitals for second opinions and advanced care. All of the staff at VCA Bakerstown Animal Hospital are pet owners. We empathize with you when pets are sick and we celebrate with you when they are well.

Hometown Care at VCA Bakerstown Animal Hospital

At VCA Bakerstown Animal Hospital, it’s our mission to ensure that you and your pet both enjoy as many years of friendship as possible. That’s why we do what we do. Our companion animal practice sees dogs and cats from Gibsonia, Pittsburgh, Mars, Valencia, Allison Park, Butler, Glenshaw, northern Allegheny and southern Butler County. We want to work with pet owners to help their pets live long, happy lives. Our small size enables us to provide the best possible service and respond quickly to the needs of pets and their owners.

When you partner with us, we want you to feel confident that your pet will always receive the best available medicine with us. More importantly, we want you to know that we love that little guy or gal just as much as you do.

Let’s face it…you adore your pet. Whether it’s those big, brown eyes, that fluffy tail, or the comical way he tilts his head, your companion is truly special to you.
