Why did you become an arborist?

“When asking myself what I will be passionate about for the rest of my life, preserving the environment was obvious. Being an Arborist gives me the opportunity to work with both plants and people, helping foster a deeper connection between our community and the environment that surrounds us.”

Customer Service Philosophy:

“I will treat your property as if it was my own.”

What are Marissa's clients saying?

“We have had nothing but excellent experiences with SavATree. They are incredibly knowledgeable and have been happy to educate us on the best care for our trees. They did some tree trimming and removal for us in a very tight space- which was super impressive. Professional, friendly, and fairly priced. My main point of contact has been Marissa and she is fantastic all around. We can not recommend them enough!”

“I recently hired SavATree to prune two large maple trees on my property, and I am beyond impressed with their service. Marissa Van Wyhe was incredibly knowledgeable and a true professional. She thoroughly assessed the health of my trees and explained the best course of action to ensure their longevity and vitality. Marissa’s expertise and passion for tree care really instilled confidence that my trees were in the best hands.”

“Marissa has been wonderful to work with Sav-A-Tree. She has personally scheduled to come and go over the pre-pruning review of trees to be trimmed. She then came early in the morning to meet with the crew and me for the actual pruning process. Her time, thoughtfulness, knowledge, and expertise have been outstanding for the services provided by Sav-A-Tree for my home property. Thank you so much, Marissa!”

“We recently had the Denver office prune 3 Elm trees of significant size and several smaller trees at our home in Wash Park. From the beginning through the end of the project, SavATree met and exceeded any expectation we could have had. Marissa Van Wyhe, Arborist, is incredibly skilled in her tree and pruning knowledge. And her excellent communication skills and professionalism made the project effortless for us. We love the work done in our trees and are happy to have had Marissa and the rest of the crew at SavATree on the project. Can't wait to work with them again.”
