About Us
Arbor Vet Tree Service brings military discipline and hometown roots together to deliver dependable tree care throughout Snohomish County.
Thomas Lizama started Arbor Vet Tree Service in 2023 after years of military service, bringing that same sense of responsibility into a new line of work. He saw a need in Snohomish County for a tree care company that residents could count on to show up on time, communicate clearly, and finish the job the way it was promised. That idea became the foundation of the business, built one job and one satisfied customer at a time.
What began as a small, hands on operation has grown into a trusted name across Snohomish, Everett, Marysville, Lake Stevens, Lynnwood, and Edmonds. Thomas built the crew around people who share his standards for hard work and honest communication, rather than simply hiring for speed. That approach means customers get a team that treats their yard the same way they would treat their own.
Today, Arbor Vet Tree Service still operates on the principles Thomas carried out of the service: show up prepared, do the work right, and stand behind it. From routine pruning to emergency storm cleanup, the company remains focused on being a dependable resource for the community it calls home. That commitment is why so many customers return and refer friends and neighbors when tree work needs to get done.

Trained hands, veteran standards
Every member of the Arbor Vet Tree Service crew is trained in proper tree care techniques, from safe cutting methods to equipment handling. Thomas built the team around people who take the work seriously, not just those looking for a paycheck. That standard shows up in how the crew prepares for each job, communicates with customers, and handles the property they’re working on.
Working on trees near homes, power lines, and fences requires more than just cutting skill. It requires judgment, patience, and the ability to plan a job before the first cut is made. The Arbor Vet crew brings that mindset to every property in Snohomish, Everett, Marysville, Lake Stevens, Lynnwood, and Edmonds, treating each job with the same level of care regardless of size.
Thomas leads by example, staying involved in the day to day work rather than stepping back once the business grew. That hands on approach keeps standards consistent across every job the crew takes on. Customers dealing directly with a crew that answers to an owner who still shows up on site tend to notice the difference in accountability.
The team’s approach to tree care reflects the values the company was built on: show up prepared, work safely, and leave the property better than they found it. Whether it’s a routine trim or emergency storm cleanup, the crew treats every job as a reflection of the company’s name and reputation. That consistency is what keeps customers calling Arbor Vet Tree Service for their tree care needs.
Veteran-owned and fully insured, Arbor Vet Tree Service delivers expert tree removal, pruning, maintenance, and 24/7 storm emergencies across Snohomish County.
