maybe I don't get your point but for OP, who is talking about BfA/Legion hunters
a) your pet won't attack anything by default unless you make it (assist)
b) if somehow you put your pet in defensive and it is the one aggroing, I just tested that (it's hard with scaling to get a mob to attack your pet and your pet to solo it, I had to heal it but I didn't do anything else)
both case you get loot (if there is any) even if the hunter itself did 0 dmg
