About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when Banfield Pet Hospital closed its doors, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. The streetlights outside seemed to flicker in time with the heartbeat of a nearby tree. Curious, he approached the hospital’s entrance and saw an old man, dressed in scrubs from decades ago, walking briskly between the trees. As the old man disappeared into the shadows, the delivery driver heard a faint meowing sound coming from behind the building. He cautiously followed it and found a small kitten playing with an old scrunchie. Turns out, the ‘haunting’ was just an overly imaginative employee leaving for the day—and the scrunchie was actually his wife's lost hair tie.
2. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached Banfield Pet Hospital, he heard an unusual sound—a soft, rhythmic tapping coming from inside the building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a tiny dog patiently tapping its paw on the counter. ‘Excuse me,’ it said in a little voice. ‘Could you please show me where I am?’ The delivery driver burst out laughing, realizing it was just another late-night mix-up.
3. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Banfield Pet Hospital and saw an unusual sight: a small dog peeking out from behind a bush, muttering, ‘I’m not lost… I just came for my secret appointment.’ The delivery driver chuckled and approached the bush. The little dog looked up with big, curious eyes and said, 'Just checking in on my friend—she’s getting some special treatment today.' Turns out, it was a weekly ritual between neighbors' pets. As the driver left, he overheard another voice whispering from inside: “Next time, bring your own snacks!”
4. One day, after closing hours, a delivery driver parked outside Banfield Pet Hospital. Suddenly, from inside, came a tiny voice: ‘Where’s my treat?’ The delivery driver looked around nervously but couldn’t see anyone. Then, from behind a nearby bush, a small head popped out—an adorable puppy with big brown eyes and a wagging tail. The little guy trotted over, grabbed the treat box in his mouth, and ran back into the darkness. The next morning, a note was found on the door: 'Thanks for the midnight snack! See you soon!'
