Unfortunately, pets are deliberately decoration only.

They applied a massive across the board nerf to all non-human followers awhile back, packaged with the fantasy that it was just the start of a rebuild of how pets would work.

They have released new pets since that are ok.
Giant snakes are solid.
The new Werehyena has a bug that makes it somewhat utile.
But anything based on a pet type that has been in game for very long is going to be without any use other than as something to take up a slot in your follower limit.
