Mariana Alvarez BVM&S MRCVS Managing Director

Lead Veterinary Surgeon

I’m originally from Spain, where I completed my veterinary studies in 2015. Upon relocating to the North East of England, I found myself captivated by the region's charm and warm hospitality. I joined the Vets on the Meowve family in 2020. I was fascinated by the nature of their mobile service, and I came to the realisation that this was the way in which I wanted to deliver my services to pets and to our community, so I set up a branch in Teesside. I find immense fulfilment in delivering veterinary services to pets in their homes as it creates a more relaxed environment and allows for tailored and comprehensive care without time constraints. I love witnessing the role that pets have within families and I’m happy that I can contribute to their wellbeing, helping to preserve that incredible bond between animals and humans. In my personal life, I share my home with Puck, a cheeky rescue cat who lightens up my days. I’m looking forward to meeting you all!

Michelle Rose-McCaffrey

Customer Care Team

I have worked in various different veterinary practices and referral hospitals around the North East since 2016, working as a receptionist and Auxiliary Nurse. My passion to help pets lead a pain free life, and support their journey of better movement and mobility then led me to train to become a small animal hydrotherapist and laser specialist. I joined the Vets on the Meowve Team in September 2023 as part of the Customer Care Team, so I will mostly be based in the office answering all of your enquiries, organising our diary and getting to know you and your wonderful pets so that we can provide you with our personalised service. I love knowing that we are supporting owners and their pets at home in a stress-free environment. Outside of work, I spend my time with my two wonderful grandchildren and look after my two cavaliers Poppy and Izzy, my frug (Frenchie x Pug) Ivy and my two cats Thor and Rocket.
