It doesn't matter what kind of critter it is. You need to discourage it now, before it gets comfortable, and moves into the garden. Once it digs up your plants, it will be too late.
You should consider stringing some electric fence wire around your garden beds. For a small area, you can use a solar powered charger with a few strands placed outside the perimeter of your beds, low to the ground. This will encourage the critter to move on to greener pastures, before your garden is ruined.
