What We Stand For

Our Values

At our practice, we believe great veterinary care is about more than medicine. It's about trust, clarity, and respect for the people who love their animals. We are committed to providing skilled, up-to-date veterinary care grounded in experience and sound medical judgment. You can trust that your animals are receiving thoughtful, reliable care at every visit.

Clear, honest communication is at the heart of what we do. We take the time to listen, explain options, and answer questions so you feel confident and supported in your animal's care. We focus on practical, appropriate treatment options and are transparent about costs so you can make informed decisions without pressure.

Our goal is simple: high-quality care that feels approachable, straightforward, and built on long-term relationships.

Veterinarians

Keelan Rogers

Doctor of Veterinary Medicine

Keelan is the co-founder of Rogers Veterinary Service. He is a native Oregonian, having grown up near Eugene. He participated in the Eugene Pony Club in middle school, and through high school devoted a significant portion of his time to training horses and working on small farms in the community. It was during this time that he began to develop an interest in veterinary medicine. He attended Oregon State University and earned his bachelor's degree in animal science in 2003. While at OSU, he became involved in the OSU Polo Club and the Army ROTC. Shortly after graduation, his Army National Guard unit was deployed to Baghdad, Iraq, and he deferred attending vet school while deployed. He safely returned from Iraq and graduated from OSU's College of Veterinary Medicine in 2009. After graduation, he had the pleasure of working at a small mixed-animal clinic in Eugene for several months before undertaking the adventure of starting Rogers Veterinary Service with his wife, Annika. He enjoys working with all animals, but especially horses and assisting livestock producers. Equine dentistry is among his areas of specialty. Keelan retired from the Oregon Army National Guard in May 2019 after 20 years of service. He stays busy at his Philomath-area home helping Annika raise their three daughters, Elizabeth, Lydia and Hannah, and caring for their two horses, along with a goat, dog and cat. For recreation, he enjoys working on the Kessi Family ranch in Harlan and participating in outdoor activities.

Annika Rogers

Doctor of Veterinary Medicine

Annika is the co-founder of Rogers Veterinary Service. She is a native Oregonian and grew up on a ranch in Harlan, a community in the Coast Range west of Corvallis. Caring for her family's cattle and managing her own flock of sheep for many years instilled in her a deep appreciation for livestock production. She was also an active 4-H member in Benton County for nine years. During that time she raised several market steers and lambs, developed a purebred Southdown flock, and trained and showed several horses, including her Appaloosa mare, Mauni. It was while working on her family's ranch and participating in 4-H that she first developed an interest in becoming a veterinarian. However, her final decision to pursue vet school was made after a trip to Mongolia in 2000 introduced her to the idea of veterinary missions. She then earned her bachelor's degree in animal science from Oregon State University in 2004 and a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in 2008, also from OSU. After practicing in Corvallis for about a year at a mixed-animal clinic, she joined Keelan, her husband, in working at a practice in Eugene for several months. In July 2010, Annika and Keelan started Rogers Veterinary Service. Annika enjoys the variety of a mixed-animal practice and working with any animal, but is particularly interested in sheep and goat medicine, cattle production medicine, and equine dentistry. Annika currently stays busy at home helping raise her and Keelan's three daughters, Elizabeth, Lydia and Hannah, but remains actively involved in the practice by assisting with overall practice management, by seeing occasional clients and patients, researching cases, and supporting staff. The family lives in Philomath and has two horses, a goat, a dog and a cat. In her spare time, she enjoys family time, playing with her horses, and continuing to work on her family's ranch in Harlan.

Ken Strawn

Doctor of Veterinary Medicine

Ken joined Rogers Veterinary Service in December 2021. Following his graduation from the Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 2014, Ken served in the U.S. Army Veterinary Corps for six years, with assignments in Washington and Arizona. He and his family returned to western Oregon in May 2020 to settle down near their extended families. A native Oregonian, Ken grew up east of Salem, where he was involved in 4-H and raised a small herd of beef cattle and a flock of sheep to provide meat for family and friends. He later graduated from Oregon State University in 2009 with a Bachelor of Animal Science degree. Ken's interest in veterinary medicine was sparked by working alongside the family's veterinarian while growing up, noting that "he had a great sense of humor and was always willing to teach and explain things." Ken enjoys working with all types of pets and livestock, but says he is particularly fond of goats "due to their unique personalities and adaptability." Ken lives near Monmouth with his wife, Rainie, and their children, Rosie, Jonah, Peter and Daniel. The family enjoys raising meat goats and working on Rainie's family's farm and timber operation. In his free time, Ken also enjoys hiking and spending time outdoors with his family.

Vicki Neuman

In-Field Veterinary Assistant

Vicki joined Rogers Veterinary Service in May 2020 after spending the previous 3½ years working for Ark Animal Hospital in Philomath. Vicki is a native Oregonian, grew up in Philomath, and graduated from Philomath High School. She attended Linn-Benton Community College, receiving an Associate of Science degree, and Oregon State University, where she earned a Bachelor of Animal Sciences. She was involved for nine years in Benton County 4-H, showing dogs, swine and beef cattle. It was during her 4-H years that Vicki developed a love for animals. “During one of my first years of 4-H, one of my pigs got so sick that he couldn't get up and walk. This was a very scary experience for me,” Vicki recalled. “After putting in a call to the vet, having her come out to do an exam, and treatment for a week, my pig was back up and running around. It really inspired me that someone could have so much love, compassion, and knowledge to help during a time of need.” She believes that getting to help people by helping their pets is one of the best parts of her job! While she enjoys working with all animals, farm animals are her favorite. She especially enjoys working with cattle. When not busy at RVS, Vicki spends her time gardening, hiking with her Blue-tick Coonhound “Duke” and Golden Retriever “Moose,” and kayaking.

What to Expect

Your visit with Rogers Veterinary Service starts with us coming to you! Two people will typically arrive at your farm or home for your scheduled appointment: a veterinarian and a veterinary assistant. Depending on the patient we are seeing, we come into your stable, barn, or home with a box of basic supplies to begin the examination process.

For Farm Animals

For horses and other farm animals, it is usually best to have them confined to a stall, holding pen, paddock, or corral area where we have easy access to them upon our arrival. For sheep and goats, having animals confined to a pen is ideal. For cattle, having a squeeze chute or head gate available to safely perform exams and procedures is beneficial, but not necessarily required. Sometimes a holding pen is adequate. Please note that every situation is different and for some animals restraint is impractical. We often provide assistance in assessing the situation and determining the best and safest solution for all involved. If excessive time is required, there may be an additional fee.

Please let us know about any special needs or concerns you may have regarding the appointment and procedures prior to the examination.

For Dogs and Cats

We can see your dogs or cats wherever they are most comfortable in an effort to minimize stress, whether that is inside the home, in the garage, on the deck, or in the barn. Oftentimes, we sit or kneel down on the floor at your pet's level to perform our examination. Sometimes we hold your pet or place it on a comfortable chair or on a table, depending on the situation and type of exam or procedure we are performing.

Making sure your pet is accessible is important. Some dogs love company and will come to the door to greet us, but some can be a bit shy or reserved with strangers. In these cases it is helpful to have a leash available, a friendly and familiar face nearby, and to close any escape routes, like a doggie door. For cats, depending on their nature, this might mean confining them to a small room prior to our entering the house and closing off rooms like bedrooms that contain hiding places.

After Your Visit

After the examination is complete and any treatments or procedures are performed, your farm animal or pet will already be in the comfort of its normal surroundings and can go about its regular routine. The doctor will answer any remaining questions you may have and discuss any treatment plans needed. The assistant may return to the vehicle to prepare any prescribed medications while the doctor transcribes a medical record and prepares an invoice for services rendered during our visit. Payment is due at time of service. We accept cash, checks, and major credit/debit cards.
