About Us
EST 2017
PDX Tree Service Inc. was founded in 2017 by Valeria Vick (President) and Josiah Vick (Lead Arborist & Estimator), with the early support of Jordan Vick (Josiah’s brother), and Brigham and JP (Valeria’s brothers). What began as a family effort has grown into a trusted name in professional tree care across the Willamette Valley.
We started this company after recognizing a clear need in the market: a tree service focused not just on cutting trees, but on functional, long-term tree care. Our approach combines local, hands-on experience with formal arboricultural training. Josiah is an ISA Certified Arborist and Tree Risk Assessment Qualified (TRAQ) professional, with years of experience handling some of the most complex removals in the Portland metro area.
Our vision has always been to apply best industry practices, adapted to the unique, tree-rich growth conditions of the Willamette Valley. We believe that tree care isn’t just a service—it’s a promise. That makes prioritizing client trust, safety, and satisfaction second nature.
As a woman-led, family-run company, we’re proud to offer professional tree care with a personal touch, serving homeowners, contractors, and public agencies alike.
FAMILY OWNED AND OPERATED
PDX Tree Service is proudly family-owned and operated, built from the ground up by Valeria and Josiah Vick, with support from their brothers and extended family. From the very beginning, our values have been shaped by the trust, accountability, and hard work that only a close-knit team can offer.
Being family-run means we take a hands-on approach to every aspect of the business—from consultations and estimates to job site execution and customer care. We don’t just stand behind our name—we work under it. Every job is personal, and every client is treated like a neighbor, not a number.
MISSION
At PDX Tree Service, our mission is to provide expert, ethical, and functional tree care rooted in professionalism, family values, and a deep respect for the Willamette Valley’s unique urban forest. We blend hands-on experience with industry best practices to deliver safe, reliable, and thoughtful tree services—building lasting trust with our clients and treating every contract as a promise.
