In my area? It would be easier to borrow a robot mowing machine.

I regret to say that I live in suburbia, and my lawn is not large
enough for a lamb. We used to use guinea pigs for that, and they
worked very well, but it was a pain having to move the run all the
time. If there was a variety of guinea pig that would also eat
invading cats[*], I should be seriously tempted to enclose the
lawn and leave it to them.

Guinea pigs can be barbecued, too.
[*] Why doesn't anyone do anything like that with GM technology?
