Pets in Adopt Me! are cute, adoptable animals that players can care for. They were added in the June 2019 update (Summer Update), though the "Pets" section of the backpack was added long before that. Hatching Eggs is the primary way of unlocking pets and operate similarly to Gifts (but take longer to hatch).
Nowadays, new players who enter the Nursery for the first time will receive a free Starter Egg (which will only hatch into a Cat or a Dog), although it was possible to obtain Pink Eggs and Blue Eggs before the official Pet Update. The Pink Egg was attainable by being in the game during the countdown for the Pet Update. The Blue Egg was attainable by receiving a Broken Egg (Legendary) from Eggburt before the Pet Update was released. Pink Eggs hatched into Pink Cats and Blue Eggs hatched into Blue Dogs. Pink Eggs, Blue Eggs, Pink Cats, and Blue Dogs are no longer available but can still be obtained by trading.
After a player obtains their own Starter Egg, they can purchase Cracked Eggs (Common), Pet Eggs (Rare) Aussie Eggs (Legendary), and Royal Eggs (Legendary) which usually hatch into different pets. Cracked Eggs have the lowest chance of hatching into legendary Unicorns or Dragons, and Royal Eggs have the highest chance. Special temporary Eggs, such as Christmas Eggs, have been released for certain events. In the nursery, there is a Gumball Machine where limited eggs can be obtained, such as the Safari Egg (no longer available), Jungle Egg (no longer available), Farm Egg (no longer available) and the Aussie Egg, can still be bought/obtained. All of them could/can be bought for 750 bucks.
Types of Eggs
You can purchase the 'Hatch Egg Now' for 
45 per egg (which hatches the egg instantly), or you can complete the egg's needs until it is ready to hatch.

Types of Pets
There are 5 types of pets: common, uncommon, rare, ultra-rare, and legendary. What kind of pet you get is mostly dependent on chance; the more expensive your egg is, the greater chance you have of hatching rarer pets. There are currently 48 total pets you can hatch.
You only can get Safari pets from the Safari Eggs; likewise, you can only get Jungle pets from Jungle Eggs. This pattern continues with other limited Eggs such as the Christmas Egg, Farm Egg, and Aussie Egg.

The pets that cannot hatch from eggs are the following: Horse, Griffin, Penguin, Golden Penguin, Sloth, Zombie Buffalo, Shadow Dragon, Bat Dragon, Evil Unicorn, Bee, King Bee, Queen Bee, Frost Dragon, Elf Hedgehog, Elf Shrew, Reindeer, Santa Dog, Panda, Rat, Golden Rat.

Special Pet Items
Ride-A-Pet Potion
Main article: Ride-A-Pet Potion
Pets can be made permanently rideable if they are given a Ride-A-Pet Potion. This Ride-A-Pet Potion is available for 150 Robux; it can be bought through the 'Shop' menu or inside the Potion Shop. You must buy a potion for every single pet that you want to make permanently rideable.
If a parent is riding a pet, the pet will grow bigger to accommodate the parent's size. If a baby is riding the pet, the pet will stay at its normal size.
Fly-A-Pet Potion
Main Article: Fly-A-Pet Potion
Pets can be made permanently flyable (allowing the player to sit on the pet and fly it) if they are given Fly-A-Pet Potion. This Potion is available for 295 Robux; it can be bought through the 'Shop' menu or inside the Potion Shop. You must buy a potion for every single pet that you want to make permanently flyable; both Fly and Ride potions can be used on the same pet to make the pet flyable and rideable.
If a pet is in flying mode, it will grow white wings with a pink trail, unless its original state had wings (such as the Robin, Crow, Shadow Dragon, Parrot, etc.), which it will use as its "flying" wings. The Arctic Reindeer , Pet Rock, and Reindeer pets do not need wings to fly and as such, don't gain any.
Neon Pet
Main article: Neon Pets
As of July 13th, 2019, it is possible to get neon pets. In order to do so, you must place four fully-grown pets of the same type into the slots in the newly added cave located under the main bridge. They will combine to create one neon pet, a special variation of the pet in which some of its parts glow a special color. All pets can be made neon.
To make a neon pet rideable or flyable, you will either only need one rideable/flyable pet for it, or you can alternatively feed it a Ride-A-Pet Potion or Fly-A-Pet Potion after turning them into a neon pet.
