Victoria Waits, the owner of Wild West Waits, has extensive horse and animal experience. She grew up on a horse farm, and competed competitively in barrel racing and other speed events for many years. Victoria qualified and competed for state, national and world championships in barrel racing for 15+ years during her youth and into her young adult life. Victoria not only competed and trained her own horses, but was given the opportunity to ride and compete for other owners from an early age, often taking these horses to the state and world championships in addition to her own.
Victoria not only has extensive riding and training knowledge, but also was a veterinary technician for 9 years. She has experience in large and small animal
medicine, and focused on emergency
medicine during her career in the veterinary world.
Victoria also has 10+ years of experience in professional pet sitting, and in-home care. Along with general care, Victoria has also dedicated years to learning about animal behavior, specifically in dogs, cats, and horses. Victoria has a wide range of diverse animal knowledge and has worked with a very large amount of different species. She performed a 6 month internship at a wildlife sanctuary and rehab, where she gained lots of knowledge for exotics.
