Your guinea pig, just like every animal kept as a pet, should have fresh, clean water available to it ever day. You should change its water daily, or even more frequently if it has a bowl that it kicks food or bedding into. Water bottles will keep water cleaner.

You should cange the water that you give your guinea pigs on a daily basis. The water can become spilled or dirty over a period of time. Water should be fresh and free of other substances that can get in it. This is an important part to keep the guinea pigs healthy.

Change the water at least every day. Consider this: would you drink a glass of water that had been sitting around since yesterday? Since last week?

For optimum health water should not be left standing - daily is best. However the water can be left in a dispenser - not a bowl - and be ok.

It all depends on what vessel you have it in. If it is in a dish it can sit or two days at the most. It should be changed every day, due to dust and other contaminants. If you have one of those inverted bottles with the nipple on it, I can be left in there until it is empty.
