About Viking Vet Idaho Falls
Viking Veterinary Hospital originated in Nampa, Idaho, in 2022 as a 24-hour emergency and specialty care center. Built on the belief that advanced medicine and heartfelt care should go hand-in-hand, that first Viking Vet location quickly became a pillar of veterinary care throughout Idaho. To reach even more pets in need, we expanded into this facility in Idaho Falls in August 2024.
Initially founded by Dr. Sarah Herres in 2007, this Idaho Falls veterinary hospital has been a pillar of emergency veterinary care throughout the entire eastern Idaho/western Wyoming region. Now operating under the Viking Vet name, we continue to build on that legacy by bringing together top-tier veterinary professionals and state-of-the-art technology to deliver lifesaving care when every second matters.
As a privately owned practice, we take pride in continuously investing in our employees, helping them stay on top of the latest advancements in pet medicine with ongoing training and learning opportunities. The world of veterinary medicine is always evolving, and our goal is to ensure we grow with it to give your pet the very best care available in Idaho Falls or beyond.
