In recent years, the Fermi-LAT gamma-ray telescope has detected a populationof over 160 gamma-ray pulsars, which has enabled the detailed study ofelectromagnetic radiation from pulsars at energies above 100 MeV. Further,since the surprising detection of the Crab pulsar in very high-energy (VHE; E >100 GeV) gamma rays by the MAGIC and VERITAS collaborations, there has been anongoing effort in the astrophysics community to detect new pulsars in the VHEband. However, the Crab remains the only pulsar so far detected in VHE gammarays, raising the question of whether or not the Crab is unique and also makingit more difficult to constrain model predictions that attempt to explain theemission. Presented here are recent VERITAS results from observationalcampaigns on the brightest northern-hemisphere high-energy gamma-ray pulsarGeminga and the missing link binary pulsar PSR J1023+0038, which have bothresulted in upper limits on a possible VHE flux. These limits are placed intocontext with the current theoretical framework attempting to explain the originof the gamma-ray emission from pulsars. Additionally, future plans for pulsarobservations with VERITAS are be briefly discussed.
