About Us

Hi, I'm Nelly, the heart and founder of Sunshine Piggy Rescue of Florida, a 501(c)(3) non-profit guinea pig rescue located in Deltona, Florida! With over 10 years of experience caring for guinea pigs, my passion for these sweet little cuties drives everything we do here.

Our rescue is 100% volunteer-run, operating through the dedication of fosters and rescuers rather than a physical shelter. We are committed to providing a safe, loving environment where each guinea pig receives personalized attention and care.

At Sunshine Piggy, we rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome guinea pigs, ensuring they thrive while they wait for their perfect forever homes. Our mission is to promote happy, healthy lives for all our furry friends and match them with families who will cherish them just as much as we do!

Rescue

We diligently work to rescue guinea pigs from situations where they are neglected, abandoned, or surrendered. Our team is dedicated to ensuring every guinea pig receives the care and attention they deserve.

Rehabilitate

Our rehabilitation process includes providing medical care, nutritional support, and a safe, playful environment to help guinea pigs regain their health and happiness. We focus on personalized care to meet each guinea pig's unique needs.

Rehome

Finding the perfect forever home is the final step in our mission. We ensure that our guinea pigs are placed in loving homes where they will receive continued care and affection, ensuring their long-term well-being.
