Muskrats are part of the family Echimyidae, which includes various species of rodents. Their closest relatives are voles, lemmings, and other members of the order Rodentia. Additionally, they share a common ancestor with other semi-aquatic mammals, such as beavers and capybaras, though these are from different families within the rodent classification. Overall, muskrats are more closely related to other small rodents than to larger mammals.
