Meet Natalie Aramino | Pet Services Expert, Entrepreneur, & Business Owner

We had the good fortune of connecting with Natalie Aramino and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Natalie, what’s the most difficult decision you’ve ever had to make?
Leaving the comfort of a job that I had been at for 18 1/2 years to go out on my own!

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I own a Mobile Grooming Business called, Zoomin Groomin of Greater Fort Worth. We’re an all-inclusive grooming service for dogs and cats that comes directly to you! There’s no dropping off your pets at a salon and waiting 2-4 hours for your pet to be ready and there’s no kenneling, so the stress level is lower for your pet than in a traditional salon. Our groomers are very experienced, professional, and talented, and will make your pet look their very best! It took years for me to get the courage to take the plunge to become a business owner. I had been at the same job for 18 1/2 years and was in a familiar and comfortable position, but I knew I didn’t want to be there for another 18 years. Because of the advice and support of the people around me, I finally held my breath and jumped, and it has been a freeing and positive experience and I’m so glad I did it!

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I like Sundance Square in Fort Worth, Old Town in Burleson, the restaurant district in Roanoke, and all around the Alliance Town Center area. You can find fantastic places to eat, drink, and shop at any of these locations. There’s even the Tanger outlet malls in Alliance that would be a fun option!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
My husband, Brad Aramino, is probably the person that I would attribute my courage to leap into my own business. He has backed and supported me from the beginning and always told me that he would have my back if this is what I wanted to do. I want to also give a huge shout out to my cousin and her spouse, Rebecca and Reed Wilkins. Both of them have also been incredibly supportive and were always there to give me advice when I needed it.
