The given sentence is grammatical, but unusual. The word "stroke" is usually not used with the word "pet." And the sentence is sort of hitting you over the head with the obvious, like saying: "Get yourself a pet that's an animal." or "Get yourself a pet that isn't dangerous." Most pets - other than fish - will let you stroke them. So there's no need for a sentence like this.
