About Me

Leading with Care. Guided by Professional Understanding.

KTM Pets is designed for owners who prioritise behavioural wellbeing, routine consistency, and professional standards in their pet’s care.

I’m Keishia, founder of KTM Pets. I provide structured, professional pet care with a strong focus on mental enrichment, emotional wellbeing, and consistent routines. Every booking is tailored to the individual needs of the pet in my care.

With over six years of hands-on experience and nearly three years running KTM Pets full-time, I’ve supported more than 70 clients and cared for over a hundred animals across Derbyshire and Nottingham.

My work considers temperament, behavioural needs, energy levels, and environment. Mental enrichment sits at the centre of my approach, supporting confidence, calm behaviour, and a sense of security through thoughtful, intentional engagement.

My background includes a Level 3 Diploma in Animal Management and Science and a Level 4 qualification in Canine Behaviour. I am also currently studying Animal Psychology and Animal Nutrition and Diet, ensuring my care remains evidence-led and grounded in best practice.

Care at KTM Pets is never rushed or generic. I work with pets across a range of emotional states, including those experiencing stress or changes in routine. Through calm handling, behavioural awareness, and consistent structure, I support pets in settling, decompressing, and feeling safe.

Entrusting someone with your pet requires confidence and trust. I approach that responsibility with care, professionalism, and a commitment to building long-term relationships with both pets and their owners.

"I recently had the pleasure of having Keishia look after my two cats, Lola and Oscar, and I couldn't be more pleased with her care. From the start, she was professional, friendly, and clearly had a deep love for animals. She took the time to learn about their individual personalities and needs, ensuring they were both comfortable and well-cared for while I was away.
She sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me a peace of mind knowing they were in good hands.
I would highly recommend Keishia to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter for their pets. Our cats are already looking forward to their next visit!"

"Keishia was so unbelievably amazing taking care of our kitten & cat over Christmas, so glad we found her at the last minute. Our usually very grumpy bsh was seen playing and cuddling and we received videos and updates to prove it! Thank you Keishia for making Christmas special for them and keeping us completely in the loop the entire time- the process was seamless and so easy & she is so easy to talk to.Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a pet sitter in the area."

Hallo Ceramics

What a wonderful human!
This booking was my first time using Rover/having a stranger look after my boys so naturally I was very nervous and anxious! Keishia was so wonderful at setting my worries at ease, quickly organised a meet and greet so we could get to know each other and see how the dogs felt around her. They were instantly besotted. During the booking, I got regular updates in photos and videos, and reassured me that when she left everything was locked up as instructed! I would give 6 stars if I could. So glad to have found her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
