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.

Grow a Garden Pets Tier List: Overview
As of now, there are 78 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 D 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 Dragonfly, Disco Bee, Raccoon, Bear Bee, Mole, and others. Each of them has high-quality traits, where the Dragonfly can turn any random fruit to get a Gold mutation, the Raccoon can steal others’ seeds and harvest, the Disco Bee has a chance of turning any random fruit to Disco, and the Mimic Octopus can shapeshift into any pet and perform their abilities.

Grow a Garden B-Tier Pets
Since the B-tier lies in the middle, it consists of average pets with a few great passives. However, they can sometimes be limited to benefit a single crop. The Panda is the best example; eating only bamboo can increase its sale value by a small multiplier.
The Chicken Zombie is a free pet that will help you get the Zombified mutation on any one of your harvest. Then, Turtles can be used to increase the sprinkler usage time, whereas Frogs can simply increase the growth rate of plants by 24 hours. Whereas the Golden Lab can help you dig up some rare seeds.

A few of the rare eggs belonging to this category are the most useful ones, like the Polar Bear that has a chance of giving some of your harvests the Chilled or Frozen mutation, and the Night Owl, helps pets to gain XP.

Grow a Garden D-Tier Pets
Finally, coming to the D-Tier, we have the worst pets of all that come with the least useful traits of all 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.
| Pet | Egg Type | Trait |
|---|---|---|
| Orange Tabby | Rare Egg | Increases the fruit size when it naps in its radius |
| Spotted Deer | Rare Egg | Chance to make the berries stay even after harvesting |
