Pet is a good source of DPS. It can tank mobs, if the mobs are slowed. If your pet is hasted as well (Haste line of spells, not spirit quickening), it can get to the top of the mob's hate list. This means you could have your pet tank a mob, instead of having to root the mob all the time. This can be a nice mana saver, because you don't need to root as much. It is also a useful strategy when you are spamming

If your pet ever starts getting dangerously low on health, you can either heal it, or tank the mob yourself for a bit.
