About Vet

I grew up on a horse farm in Florida where my love of animals started. From an early age I knew I wanted to be a veterinarian. I've been practicing Veterinary Medicine since 2010 and have traveled all over the US (Alaska, New Hampshire, Florida, Montana). This has allowed me to be exposed to many different conditions as well as practice in multiple different settings. I've gained a lot of knowledge and experience which has allowed me to help so many dogs and cats over the years. I have and still currently do work in general practice as well as emergency hospitals. I live in Montana for the summer and Florida for the winter with 3 dogs (2 labs and a mix) and 1 human and we enjoy our lives to the fullest. We love being outdoors and you can most likely find us hiking, hunting, fly fishing, or shooting bows when we aren't working. I have done some fear free training and enjoy helping dogs and cats enjoy their lives to the fullest as well! I am a Certified Pet Therapeutic Nutrition Coach.

****While I'm unable to prescribe medications due to the laws and rules regarding telemedicine with the state boards I hold licenses in (except for Idaho and Florida) and states that I don't hold licenses in, I am able to provide professional advice and triage. This means, we can decide together if your pets condition is an emergency and requires immediate assistance, is a condition that can wait for your regular vet to see you or if there are OTC treatments you can try at home first. We discuss possible conditions and their severity, we discuss tests that may need to be done when seen at your regular vet and/or discuss OTC treatments and provide you with dosages and specific directions. I also provide signs and symptoms to monitor your pet for to determine if the condition is worsening and should be seen more immediately. It is my discretion to provide a prescription or not based on if I believe a prescription is warranted, is necessary or makes me uncomfortable based on my findings. I look forward to assisting you and your furry loved one!

My small dog was having lose stools for 5 days and blood. We were concerned that he might have eaten bad food or possibly had a blockage. She eased our fears and assured us it was a GI infection based on his symptoms. After one dose of the prescribed medication our dog was acting healthy as ever! Thanks for the great care. Being in a remote location veterinary care is non existent. I’m super grateful for Vetster and companies that can serve communities like ours

Dr.Prine was very polite, informative and very knowledgeable! She was compassionate, gave us her full attention and helped us with knowing if we needed to bring our dog in to be seen immediately. She said we could reach out to her with any questions, concerns or inform her of anything we forgot to mention over the next 48 hours. We are so thankful for her help!!
