I'm a beastmaster hunter so the pet usually doesn't need to be healed until the fight is over. A mend pet here or there is sometimes needed though. Intimidation then mend works well. Marks hunters can scatter shot to get more time. Have the pet cower and you distracting shot (yes cower has a purpose) and use some of your 3-4K HP battery while you finish the mob off as well, or just kite it to death. If you keep your melee weapons trained most hunters can still do pretty decent DPS up close and personal and a survival hunter could even use improved wing clip or counterattack in a situation like that to kite out some more (tell the pet to follow to get it some times as well if you want). If you are fighting an elite beast scare it off and get some time too and if the pet dies and I live, I still won. :)
