Meet Michelle Guarino, Owner

Michelle Guarino is the owner of Off Leash K9 Training Buffalo, NY. She is originally from Vienna, Virginia and received her BS in Economics from Virginia Tech in 2006. From cats and dogs to ferrets and chinchillas, Michelle has kept various pets in her household since she was a young child. She had hoped animal care and training would be a path she could pursue as a career one day. Michelle began formally working with animals 16 years ago, starting out as a veterinary technician in 2000. She has honed her skills in various sectors of animal care; from emergency response at a veterinary clinic to oncology at a specialty practice in Vienna, Virginia. In 2015 Michelle transitioned into the training sector and began working at the headquarters of Off Leash K9 Training. Since joining the OLK9 team, Michelle continues to receive positive feedback from her satisfied clients.
