Pets in Grow a Garden help players in multiple ways and have become a core feature since being added through the Animal update. They can increase a fruit’s size, give XP to other critters, duplicate crops, dig up seeds, and more. You can also get precious Mutations — like Rainbow, Pollinated, etc. — for your crops from them.
If you’re looking for a dedicated list of Pets, then this guide lists all the ones currently available, along with the Mutations they provide.
