A Maryland native, Christy has had dogs her entire life. After high school, her job as a Veterinary Technician was a perfect fit. Since then, she’s had many aspects to her career, most recently owning a business teaching sports and fitness to young children for 16 years. Some of her most cherished moments of that business include teaching children with special needs. When that business closed due to the COVID pandemic, she searched for something that would be just as fulfilling. When she discovered Dog Training Elite, she knew that it was the opportunity to bring all of her careers together. Dog Training Elite Central Maryland not only helps families who want to ensure that their pup is a well-behaved member of their pack, but also can provide in home Service Dog and Therapy Dog training. She believes there are so many families whose lives could be positively impacted with the help of a Service Dog, and Therapy Dogs do such wonderful work in our communities.

Christy lives in Elkridge, MD with her husband and co-owner, Sean, her two children, and three dogs, Kira, a Siberian Husky, and her Golden Retrievers, Murphy and Maui. In her spare time, Christy enjoys spending time with her family, dogs, and everything water-related. She can often be found boating on the Chesapeake Bay, and paddle boarding with Murphy.
