Hi , Guinea pig's really like their houses, it's a place that they love and that makes them feel safe. They do tend to come out when people are around but sometimes they will come out during the day when no one is there.

Since the guinea pig is a mammal, they come out the same way as humans, except guinea pigs are born with their fur, teeth and are already able to see and walk.
Guinea Pigs poke with their nose to show greetings,emotions,etc.It is like saying hello to that Guinea Pig.
a guinea pig and a mouse aren't the same the guinea pig must have its own type of food like alphalpha pelets and hamsters should eat seeds,nuts,etc. Seeds and nuts are like poison to a guinea pig if the guinea pig and mouse are just eating alphalpha pelets (not seeds) i would say its ok.
It all depends on the guinea pigs behavior and who the person is. A well socialized guinea pig is more likely to come to it's owner while a shy and under socialized guinea pig would be less likely to come.
