Whether your pet is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or simply needs help regaining strength, we’re here to provide gentle, customized care that supports their quality of life every step of the way.

Dani Waite 

DVM, CCRP, cVMA

Dr. Dani Waite was born and raised in Wyoming. She earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the University of Wyoming in 2006. She went on to earn her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from Colorado State University in 2011. After graduation, she spent two years in small animal primary care in Colorado Springs. Her love for post-operative care and neurologic recovery fueled her transition to rehabilitation work. Dr. Waite completed internships at an emergency and specialty center and an orthopedic practice while completing coursework for her rehabilitation program and certificate in veterinary medical acupuncture. She has spent the last 10 years helping various patients needing rehabilitation. Dr. Waite is passionate about assisting her patients and their families to live their best lives with improved mobility and pain management.

In her free time, Dr. Waite enjoys skiing, hiking, yoga, and spending time with her family. She has two boys that keep her busy with soccer, swimming, and lacrosse mom activities. Violet, Dr. Waite’s 2-year-old Olde English Sheepdog, is learning obedience & will start practicing the basics of dog sports soon. Dr. Waite treats your pet like one of her own and loves partnering with pet parents to make a treatment plan that fits the diagnosis and your life.
