How we're keeping you safe during COVID-19

At Tustin Legacy Animal Hospital we are committed to caring for your pets in a comfortable, welcoming environment, and we thoroughly enjoy getting to know each and every one of your pets and your families. The current COVID-19 pandemic has forced us to make some changes that limit our contact with you, our clients, with the goal of keeping everyone healthy and limiting the spread of illness. We are back to offering in-person appointments and limiting clients to one person in the exam room. Face masks are now optional for clients.

To better serve you and your pets, based on client feedback we are altering our hours effective Friday 3/17/23:

Mon-Fri 8am-6pm
Hospital closures for staff meetings: 1st Wednesday of every month from 1-2:30pm.

What is a
Pet Health Certificate

A pet health certificate is an official document that one of our veterinarians will fill out after examining your pet thoroughly. Our health certificate veterinarians are licensed and USDA-approved. The document will contain specific information about your pet, such as breed, age, microchip, etc. It also verifies that your pet is disease-free and identifies all of your pet’s immunizations. Many commercial airlines may require a pet health certificate (one for each pet flying). The time range in which a health certificate must be received varies by airline, so please verify with the airline you are using early to guarantee your journey will not be delayed. While you are arranging your trip, check with the airlines to see if any further paperwork is required; some will have their own documents in addition to a certificate of veterinary examination.
