Meet our Team

Dedicated to Improving the Lives of Guinea Pigs one Wheek at a time

Nicola

Hi everyone! I’m Nic, My job will be to help run the social media side of things, so expect to see my face a lot more around here and on stories. A little bit about me… well I’m Guinea pig obsessed!

This little lady here is named ‘Fluffy’ and I own 3 other Guinea pigs who you’ll get to meet soon. I’m hoping to add a few more piggies in the future as well.

I’m super excited to be joining the amazing team here at Guinea Pigs Australia and can’t wait to chat with you all in the comments and messages. Feel free to say hi.

Katy

Hi everyone! My name’s Katy. You won’t see my face around much but you will certainly see my cheeky piggy cartoons around the GPA website and social media.

I’ve come on board in 2022 as part of the marketing team, assisting with graphic design and illustration to help bring these incredible little animals into the spotlight!

I’ve been a graphic designer for over 15 years but I’ve loved drawing and guinea pigs since I can remember, so this job at GPA is literally a match made in heaven.

I’ve got five guinea pigs of my own, and I’m happy to say my guinea pig obsession has rubbed off on my two kids as well!

It’s always been my goal to advocate proper care and information surrounding these little guys, as there is plenty of myths and misinformation out there! Now that I’m on board with GPA, I hope, through my cartoons, that I can help show and educate the public on what great little animals guinea pigs are!

Monique

Hi, my name is Monique and I’m very excited to be apart of the Guinea Pigs Australia team!

I have loved guinea pigs for as long as I can remember, I grew up owning them as a young child and by the time I was 14 I was running my own rescue dedicated to rescuing and rehoming guinea pigs in need.

I currently own 6 of my own guinea pigs. Harley, Joshi, Stewie, El, Luna and Grace.

The Guinea pigs in my arms are Harley and Joshi! While the Guinea pigs in my lap are Bill and Ben who are rescue guinea pigs available for adoption.

I will be online once a week sharing content from piggy friendly items, to educational posts.

I’m also excited to announce that you can now follow Guinea Pigs Australia on TikTok “@guineapigs_australia” where I will be sharing fun and educational videos.

Many post will feature some rescue piggies too! 🐹

Dr Sam

Hi everyone!

I’m Sam, and I’m so excited to be joining the Guinea Pigs Australia Team! I love anything and everything guinea pigs – just ask anyone who knows me. I currently have three guinea pigs who live like royalty in our household – Diego, B.M Fuzzball, and Snowball – who definitely have us humans wrapped around their little fingers.

As a qualified veterinarian, I have a strong passion for the health and welfare of guinea pigs, rabbits, and other small mammals. I’m looking forward to becoming more involved in the Guinea Pigs Australia community and helping our furry little critters be the happiest and healthiest they can be.
