Tiny paws, big love.
Cozy grooming for guinea pigs & hamsters — warm baths, gentle nail trims, and careful coat brushings by hands that were made for small things.
Every tiny pet deserves the full treatment.
Hover the cards. Flip them. Wiggle them. Each one is a tiny gift box.
Nail Trim
Quick & stress-free
Overgrown nails curl and can snag on bedding. We clip each tiny nail with precision scissors designed for small animals.
Before & After
From curved, snagging claws → to neat, rounded tips that let Biscuit run without catching.
- All 20 toes on guinea pigs
- Gentle hold technique
- Nail file finish
Full Groom
The whole experience
A warm, shallow rinse, gentle shampoo, careful blow-dry on low heat, brush-out, and nail trim — the works.
🐾 Guinea pigs have 20 toes! (4 on back feet, 5 on front)
The Royal Fluff
For long-haired breeds
Long-haired Peruvian guinea pigs and Angora breeds need extra attention. We detangle, trim, and style.
Hamster Spa
Tiny & extra gentle
Hamsters rarely need water baths — we use a sand bath technique and careful brushing to keep their coats pristine.
Our Technique
Sand bath → soft brush → nail check → ear clean → health check note for your records.
- Sand bath technique
- Soft-bristle brushing
- Nail trim
Wellness Check
Add-on to any service
We check teeth length, eye clarity, ear health, skin condition, and weight — and write you a simple observation note to share with your vet.
🦷 Guinea pig teeth never stop growing! Hay is what keeps them worn down.
Birthday Groom
Make it a celebration
Full Royal Fluff + a birthday bandana, a polaroid photo printed on-site, and a little birthday treat bag for your pet.

Hands that were made for small things.
Every groomer at Nibble owns a small pet. We're not just professionals — we're also parents who understand.
Maya Chen
Head Groomer & Founder
Maya started Nibble after realizing there was nowhere gentle enough to take her daughter's guinea pig Duchess. Eight years and 2,000+ tiny clients later, she still does every nail trim herself.
Specialty: Long-haired breeds & anxious pets
Pet: Duchess (Peruvian Guinea Pig)
💛 Can identify a guinea pig breed by its rosette pattern alone
Sam Okafor
Small Animal Specialist
Former veterinary technician who discovered his calling when a hamster fell asleep in his palm mid-trim. Sam handles our most nervous clients — the ones who need a heartbeat to calm down.
Specialty: Hamsters, dwarf breeds & wellness checks
Pet: Pretzel (Roborovski Hamster)
💛 Holds the record for the world's most patient nail trim (47 minutes, one very wiggly hamster)
Priya Sharma
Grooming Artist
Priya studied textile arts before pivoting to small animal grooming — turns out, brushing an Abyssinian's rosettes requires the same patience as weaving. She's the one who does the birthday bandanas.
Specialty: Abyssinians, Texels & birthday grooms
Pet: Mochi & Sushi (Rex Guinea Pigs)
💛 Hand-sews every birthday bandana the morning of the appointment
