Post 50 mage water pets backstab so have greatly increased dps when behind the mob. But one thing so many people don't seem to understand is all melee (including pets) always do more damage from behind the mob. Unless you need to push or something everyone (not just rogues) should be attacking from behind.
It's not always easy to position your pet however if the tank isn't helping matters. One way to make it easier is to guard the pet away from the group in the direction pulls come in so when you pet attack he naturally comes to the back of the mob.
