Meet Amanda Chi

Amanda Chi is the heart and soul of Tread & Wag. A devoted wife, a loving mother to her 2-year-old daughter Raya, and a proud dog mom to Julius, Athena, and Theo — she lives and breathes the kind of full, joyful life she wants to help others create.

As a certified dog trainer, Amanda has spent years studying canine behavior, fitness, and wellbeing. But her real education came from her own pack — watching her dogs thrive when they had consistent exercise, routine, and love.

She founded Tread & Wag because she saw a gap in her community: busy families who deeply loved their dogs but struggled to give them the daily movement they needed. Her answer? Bring the walk to them.

"I can't imagine doing anything other than helping people and their dogs live their best lives," Amanda says. "Every wagging tail at the end of a session reminds me exactly why I started this."

What We Stand For

Our Mission & Values

Everything we do is guided by a simple belief: dogs deserve to live their best lives, and so do the families who love them.

Community First

We exist to serve our neighbors. Every session is a chance to strengthen the bond between dogs and the people who love them.

Safety Always

As a certified dog trainer, Amanda ensures every session follows the highest safety standards — tailored to each dog's needs.

Comfort at Home

We bring the walk to you. No stressful car rides, no unfamiliar environments — just happy exercise in your dog's safe space.

Holistic Wellness

Physical activity is just the start. We care about the whole dog — mental stimulation, routine, and joyful living.

The Team

Meet the Pack

Julius, Athena, and Theo aren't just pets — they're the original Tread & Wag team members and the inspiration behind everything we do.

Julius

Julius

Chief Morale Officer

The eldest and wisest of the pack. Julius sets the tone — calm, steady, and always ready for a good trot.

Athena

Athena

Head of Quality Control

Sharp, spirited, and endlessly curious. Athena personally tests every treadmill session to make sure it meets her very high standards.

Theo

Theo

Director of First Impressions

The youngest and most enthusiastic. Theo greets every client with a wagging tail and reminds us all why we do this.

And the newest member — Raya!

At just 2 years old, Raya is already growing up surrounded by wagging tails and happy dogs. She's the daily reminder that the work Amanda does isn't just about fitness — it's about building a life full of love, laughter, and four-legged friends. The whole family is Tread & Wag.
