Meet the team
Having graduated from Nottingham Vet School in 2017, I started working in a busy small animal hospital in Cheshire. I joined the Vets4Pets Altrincham team April 2022.
I have a special interest in surgery and studying for the BSAVA Certificate and Advanced Practitioner status in the area. Most important to me is getting to know my patients, and, hopefully making their visits as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.
In my spare time I am usually being bossed around by my guinea pigs Livia and Julia, or, being taken for a walk by my beagle Lola.
I graduated from Liverpool in 2021. I decided that I wanted to become a vet when I was three years old and my ambition never wavered . I’ve loved animals my whole life and always want to do my best to help them live the best life possible.
I began my career in as a charity vet working for the RSPCA in Bolton. This work gave me a chance to learn about how to manage abandoned and neglected pets and help pets of owners in financial difficulties. I joined vets for pets in spring 2024 and I have loved every minute. I feel privileged to work with such a wonderful team of like minded individuals and the way we all work together to provide the best possible outcome for all our patients. I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn and grow as a veterinary professional within such a supportive environment and my aim is to always ensure every pet has the best possible care during their time with us.
I qualified as a Veterinary Surgeon from the University of Liverpool in 2022. I worked at a different Vets4Pets practice for the first 2 years 4 months of my career before moving to Altrincham Vets4Pets in Jan 2025. I absolutely love animals and have always wanted to be a vet from a very young age and am so happy to have achieved that life-long dream. I love being able to help make a difference and have a positive impact on the lives of pets and their owners! Outside of work, I enjoy horse riding, going to the gym, climbing and going out for food.
Jo qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in January 2013, having trained in multi disciplinary referral practice, working in the Orthopaedic & Emergency teams. In 2014 she moved to Altrincham Vets4Pets, since then she has coached 3 trainee nurses & recently completed a Certificate in Small Animal Nutrition.
I've worked with Vets For Pets Altrincham since September 2021. I have an interest in medical nursing, diabetes, weight loss, anaesthesia and analgesics.
I have three young children and a lovely black and white cat called Tash - because he has a moustache!
I have worked in Altrincham Vets for Pets since 2021 having previously worked in an emergency hospital for 7 years. Veterinary care is my love and passion and, as part of my job, I am really keen to help dogs’ and their owners’ journey with us as smooth as possible. I am proud to have led our achievement in earning our Dog friendly practice accreditation.
I have a beautiful Wirehaired Vizla cross called Lillibet and a cheeky cat called Magway at home.
Ella Barnacle
Student Veterinary Nurse
I have worked at vets for pets since July 2022 starting as veterinary care assistant. I have recently just started my nurse training which I really enjoying. At home I have a beautiful cat who I love to spoil! Looking forward to seeing you and your furry friends in consults.
I qualified as a Veterinary Care Assistant in 2022 and started working for Vets for Pets at the beginning of this year. I am passionate about caring for your animals and their welfare.
Having grown up with multiple pets in the family I have always loved animals. I started work here as a Client Care Advisor and had the opportunity to move onto a Veterinary Care Assistant and I am enjoying working more closely with the beautiful animals you bring to us.
Hi there, I’m Mathew ! I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in November 2021, and have been working in veterinary practice since December 2015. I have carried out multiple roles within veterinary practice, including working as a consulting nurse in a busy veterinary hospital. Before joining the team here at Altrincham Vets for Pets, as the Deputy Head Nurse, I worked as a Head Nurse for three years. I have an interest in consulting which I hold a certificate in, and also veterinary practice management which I also hold a certificate within, I also enjoy being a clinical coach helping to coach student nurses, I have coached six students to date. In my own time I enjoy catching up with friends and family, and walking my miniature dachshund Tillie, and rescue French bulldog Skye, with my fiancé Sophie.
Having been brought up on a farm in Lincolnshire and a keen horse rider I've always had involvement in animal care. My career in retail brought me to Manchester in 1997 where I have settled ever since. Working for Selfridges for 16 years gave me the valuable experience I have in Client care, team wellbeing and operational efficiency. Outside of work I run regularly with my two dogs, a Doberman Rosie and Boxer George. Movies and food are also up there on my list for down time.
Leanne Sands
Client Care Administrator
I have worked in the Veterinary Industry as a Client Care Advisor since September 2024. Having always had a love of animals, I decided to make a career change to pursue a role in this industry. I am aiming to work my way up through the industry to hopefully become an RVN through the help of Vets for Pets. The best part of my job is definitely seeing all the lovely animals that come to the practice, it makes the day al the more fun!
