Cindy Skocik
Owner - DTE NC Triangle | Dog Training Elite Raleigh
Cindy has been a lifelong dog lover, with her first love being her childhood dog Sunshine. Formerly a CPA and business leader, she has always been happiest in her career when her head and heart were engaged in solving problems and improving people’s lives, including her work at a company that treats people with eating disorders and an assisted living company.
Dog Training Elite connects Cindy’s passion for animals and her desire for a service-oriented business that improves people’s lives, as well as providing a way to be connected to the local community.
Outside of work, Cindy loves being outdoors, hiking, “recreational cooking” and feeding other people, reading, and hanging out with her friends and family - human and canine.

Roxie
Co-Owner | Dog Training Elite Raleigh
Roxie was born in Rougement, North Carolina on October 15, 2021, about 20 miles from her current home. She is a moyen poodle (“moyen” is French for medium) and she's about 50 pounds. She looks like a doodle because of her haircut (mom likes her fuzzy face!), but she's a poodle.
She’s a sweet ginger girl who loves making new friends, both canine and human. She is happy that she will have a modern life with both a career and her family. She is excited to be the co-owner of Dog Training Elite of the NC Triangle, where her primary responsibilities will be demonstrating how a good dog behaves and spreading happiness. Her hobbies are taking hikes, traveling, and playing with friends, leaves, and pinecones. She loves a good ear rub and a bully stick.
