About Me

Hello. My name is Kaylee. I am here to help guide you on the wonderful path of getting guinea pigs. This is a great place to start.

I have owned guinea pigs since I was three years old. I have been full on handling them since I was seven. I am about to turn twelve. My room is guinea pig theme. I have loved them all my life. They are my passion. I provide different services for the people who already own guinea pigs, too.

Please do not underestimate my age. I am a very skilled guinea pig handler, bonder, and nail-trimmer (picture below of me holding one of my precious pigs). The director says so, too. Wait, who is this director? Well, let’s start from the beginning. I have had guinea pigs since I was three. My old guinea pigs died around the time I was nine and a half. It absolutely broke my heart. I was sitting in my room one night doing research for the hermit crabs my mom said I could get to fulfill my want for an animal that I could hold. My mom came in showing me a website. She said we could foster guinea pigs there if our application was approved. But it meant no hermit crabs. I didn’t care. Once we got approved, it was literally the best day of my LIFE!! Once the director got to know me for two years, well, let’s just say we’re really close now. I think she trusts me with the guinea pigs just as much as my mom, if not more.

But, wait, why did I even write a website?

Simple. There is soooooooo much misleading information about getting guinea pigs out there and no websites dedicated to giving people all the information to get your first guinea pig that is 100% true. If you want a guinea pig but don’t know where to start, have a guinea pig but have a question, or are looking for the ups AND downs of owning a guinea pig, I’m your girl!

But, if you are looking for the answer to a very specific question, please reach out to me at kaylee@guineapiggirl.com and I will answer within 24 hours. Have a good day.
