Welcome to D&H Piggy Pals Guinea Pig Rescue
We are a small scale guinea pig rescue based in Durham. Started January 2025 alongside my pet sitting business.
We understand circumstances change and offer judgement free surrender. Guinea pigs are taken in from any situation.
Piggies are health checked, claw clipped and handled regularly before re homing to a 5 star home.
Donations are often given by my lovely customers which are much appreciated.
Holly and I are both animal mad. We have 20 pets between us ranging from cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, tortoises and hamsters.
Thank you for your support. Please get in touch if you would like to adopt or surrender a guinea pig. Any other enquiries are welcome.

Guinea Pig Surrenders
If you find yourself in the situation where your circumstances change and you can no longer care for your guinea pig, we offer a judgement free surrender.
Guinea Pig Adoption
If you are looking for a new addition to your family, we have solo piggies looking for a friend, or bonded pairs of piggies. Please get in touch to find out the adoption process.
Guinea Pig Claw Clipping
All piggies at the rescue will receive a claw clip before being rehomed. We can also offer this service on a regular basis for your guinea pigs, whether they have been adopted through the rescue or not. Home visits can be provided if local.
