Why did you become an arborist?

"I became an arborist because of my passion for trees and the important role they play in our environment and communities. Trees provide beauty, shade, habitat, and lasting value to the places where we live and work. I enjoy helping preserve and care for them while educating property owners on how proper tree care can improve both tree health and safety. Being able to work outdoors and make a positive impact on the landscape every day is what makes this profession so rewarding."

Customer Service Philosophy:

"I believe every property and every tree has unique needs. My approach is to listen carefully to my clients, understand their goals, educate them on their options, and recommend solutions that promote long-term tree health while providing excellent customer service and results."

Hannah, the arborist, and SavATree's crew are phenomenal. Hannah cares about the health of your trees and will help you achieve your tree goals with keeping in mind what is best for your trees. The crew did an amazing job pruning a very out of control and hard to deal with acacia, as well as a 40 ft. tall olive tree that was giving shade to a neighbor. Both trees look great. They were very...

It was clear he’s very knowledgeable, and it...

We had a great experience with SavATree when we had our two redwood trees trimmed and inspected. Hannah, our arborist, explained things very thoroughly and was always available for questions. Gilberto did a great job trimming our giant redwood trees. He went above and beyond for us. Everyone was so nice and enjoyable to work with. They were all super knowledgeable and made us feel at ease...

Rebekah Krupka, SavATree's ISA-Certified Arborist, had visited our property in December to assess our large coastal redwoods and subsequently had proposed a tree trimming and pruning service for February 2026 as well as a deep-watering treatment in July 2026. Both of these proposals were extremely reasonable, and Rebekah was not only very thorough in examining the trees but highly professional...

I highly recommend this company. I will definitely be hiring them for future projects. I had 3 huge palm trees cut down and a huge pine tree trimmed of deadwood, etc. I have lived here for over 35 years & this is only the second time I've had anything done to the pine tree. Hannah was a joy. Jose, Andre, Manuel and Hector worked so hard and were so pleasant. The price was very reasonable. If I...
