There can be many reasons, but it might be that you are petting it too hard. Try to stroke it more gently. It could also mean that it likes when it is pet. There is an app that gives samples of guinea pig "eeps" in different moods.

How do you know what guinea pigs are saying?
Well, usually if a guinea pig is squeaking, it is either unhappy or hungry. If it goes Whee ouu WHEEE ouu WHEE, then it is probably hungry. If it purrs or vibrates when you pet them or hold them, it means they are happy and feel safe and ocmfortable. Any other squeaks and it is unhappy. also, if it has one long, highpitched squeak, then take it to the vet and tell them what happened, because the guinea pig is hurt. (sorry for the bad spellings of the sounds--you get what i mean)
Why does your guinea pig scream everytime you touch her sides or rub her back?
Most of the time guinea pigs scream (squeak) because they enjoy you petting them or they are encouraging you to pet them. My guinea pig squeaks when I pet her or pick her up because she knows that I am about to give her food. Sometimes guinea pigs scream because they don't want you to pick them up. If that is the case the screaming is followed by scratching, biting, running away, or acting dead.
