Grow a Garden Pets Tier List (August 2025): Best Pets to Choose

The most beloved farming game on Roblox, Grow a Garden, became much more interesting with the introduction of new cute pets. Not only do they roam around your garden, sitting and napping wherever they feel like, but they also come with unique traits. These traits boost the progress of the crops in your garden, provide random chances for mutations, and offer more buffs. Since there are a whole lot of animals and bugs, we have prepared a Grow a Garden pets tier list, highlighting the best pets to help you choose your companion.

As of now, there are 96 pets in all of Grow a Garden, each coming with unique traits and buffs. A lot of them can provide you with excellent chances of getting fruit mutations and a rapid growth rate, while there are many others that provide minimal to less efficient qualities.

Accordingly, we have divided all of these pets into different categories, with S being the best of all because it provides the best passives for money making, while E is the worst because the pets in that category have the least usable traits.

Grow a Garden S-Tier Pets

The S-Tier consists of the greatest pets of all in Grow a Garden, including the Kitsune, Raccoon Dragonfly, Disco Bee, and others. Each of them has high-quality traits, where the Dragonfly can turn any random fruit to get a Gold mutation, the Kitsune and Raccoon can steal others’ seeds and harvest, the Disco Bee has a chance of turning any random fruit to Disco, and the T-Rex can give high valued mutations to random plants in your garden

Grow a Garden A-Tier Pets

Next at the A-Tier, we have a mix of the Dinosaur, Paradise eggs, and Zen Eggs let me assure you that each of them has excellent qualities despite being a tier below the best ones. Among these, my favorite is the Capybara that never lets your active pets go hungry.

Other pets like the Triceratops can help in advancing the size of hatched pets, while the Mole can dig up free gears and sheckles, and the Queen Bee can help in giving pollinated mutation and a small chance of refreshing the pet passives. That said, here are all the pets in the A-Tier.

Coming down at the C-Tier, these pets are slightly better than the ones you can find from most common eggs in Grow a Garden. A few of the rare eggs belonging to this category are the most useful ones, like the Fennec Fox that has a chance of copying random mutations from your garden, and the Owl, helps pets to gain XP.

Considering the first pet Ankylosaurus, can help you get a copy of the stolen fruit by other pets. While the Blood Kiwi helps in reducing the hatch time of eggs, the Orange Tabby can help in increasing the fruit size in your garden. Thus, the Tabby can be used along with the sprinklers to get huge fruits and ultimately better profit.

Grow a Garden E-Tier Pets

Finally we have the E-Tier pets which are straight up worst of all and come with the least useful traits in the game. For instance, the Spotted Deer that can help in keeping the berries intact when harvested. The Rabbit can give your carrots a small chance of adding a value bonus. However, they sell for really low prices, which again is not good enough when you have better crops available.
