For Arborists in Dallas
Using certified arborists in Dallas is important because of micro-environments. An arborist who works daily in Dallas will know the trees in that community. As they zig zag between job sites through the neighborhood they will notice trees and patterns in your area. Most importantly they will know the soil in that area and how this soil type may benefit or hurt your trees in Dallas. Local certified arborists will also know disease and insects active in your area.

Kay Chupik
Since 2022
My roots run deep. I’ve lived in the same neighborhood for over 60+ years which has given me a deep knowledge of trees that do well in Dallas. I have seen the seasons shift and the effects of inclement weather on trees.
Before working for Texas Tree Surgeons I helped my late husband run his small Chupik Tree service. I have worked every aspect from running the office to providing quotes, to clean up.

I enjoy being outdoors; playing disc golf; fishing; really anything that has to do with nature.

Since 2016
I have been an arborist for 7 years and before I began working for Texas Tree Surgeons I used to collect, gather and split firewood. It was mostly for personal use but sometimes I helped a friend with acquiring and splitting wood for a mobile wood burning pizza he operated.

Sage Tune McClellan
Since 2024
I fell in love with Texas Tree Surgeons originally as a customer as they helped me with my oak that was struck by lightening. Through my in depth conversations with my arborist I realized that this was the path for me. I immediately noticed the care and love Texas Tree Surgeons had for trees and and their ethos aligned with my values and interests of working with nature in the best interest of trees.
My way to arboriculture is through my background as a private chef, gardener and native plant enthusiast. I grew up in the Santa Monica Mountains in Los Angeles and I would go on nature walks with my mother regularly because she ran the Sierra Club Walks where they would identify and forage edible mushrooms and plants.

Our Roots Run Deep In Dallas
In 2007, Amy had an appointment to give an arborist consult in Dallas for two red maple trees that were looking sick. When she pulled up to the house she immediately recognized it as the house where her family lived when she was born. She called her parents to tell them and she learned that her dad had planted those two maple trees by hand in 1971! Unfortunately one tree had root rot and needed to be removed, but the other was put on a Plant Health Care Program and is still alive today due to fertilizing and insect control.
In 2011, Amy was once again out working in Dallas. She was chatting with the homeowner after providing him with a free estimate and he said “My daughter would be perfect for this job!” He went on to say that his daughter, Hannah, had just graduated from Texas A&M and was looking for a job. Hannah began working for Dallas Tree Surgeons (now known as Texas Tree Surgeons) two weeks later and is now our Managing Arborist. She is passionate about trees and her job and recently became a Board Certified Master Arborist (the second female BCMA in the state of Texas).
Being a local Dallas tree company gives us a unique perspective. We were born and raised here, and we love caring for trees that we have been around all of our lives. Trees are an important part of our history and our future. We are proud to support local tree organizations like the Trinity Blacklands Urban Forestry Council.
One of the trees Amy’s dad planted, as it originally looked in 1971.
