How the Idea Appeared

The idea for Bluefish Petcare emerged in 2019 from a single passion for animals and a desire to provide exceptional veterinary care to the pets and pet owners of Covina, California.

As avid animal lovers ourselves, we recognized the importance of having a trusted partner in pet healthcare – a clinic that not only offered top-notch medical services but also prioritized compassion, communication, and personalized care.

We wanted to build a practice where pets and their owners felt welcomed, valued, and supported throughout every stage of their healthcare journey.

From the moment the idea took shape, our focus has always been on providing comprehensive, compassionate care that meets the unique needs of every pet and pet owner we serve.

We are proud to have brought this vision to life and look forward to continuing to make a positive impact in the lives of pets and their families for years to come.

Mission and Values of the Clinic

Our mission at Bluefish Petcare is to improve the lives of pets and their owners by providing comprehensive,
compassionate veterinary care. We believe in treating every pet as if they were our own and strive to build lasting
relationships with our clients based on trust, respect and open communication.
