Complete Pet Guide

Everything you need to know about pets in Grow A Garden, from hatching eggs to their unique abilities.

How to Get Pets

Pets are obtained by purchasing and hatching Pet Eggs. You can buy these eggs from the Pet Egg Stall, run by an NPC named Raphael. This stall is located on the opposite side of the floating island from the Seed and Sell stands.

  1. Visit Raphael's Pet Egg Stall: The stall has a yellow and white striped canopy.
  2. Purchase an Egg: The shop refreshes with new eggs every 30 minutes. The type of egg available is random.
  3. Place the Egg: Take the egg to your garden and place it on an empty plot, just like a seed.
  4. Wait for it to Hatch: Each egg has a specific hatch time. Rarer eggs take longer to hatch.
  5. Hatch Your Pet: Once the timer is up, interact with the egg to welcome your new pet!

You can have up to 3 eggs hatching and 3 pets roaming your garden at the same time by default. You can unlock more slots by trading in high-level pets to Raphael!
