I feel like there should be 2 toggles that can be seen when you interact with a pet twice, just like with the coop and barn animals. One of them should be if you want the animal to follow you or not, the other is if you want it to find forageables. The higher the friendship is with your pet, the higher quality forageables it can find. I also feel like, when your oet is following you, you can give it an item and it will hold it for you, like an extra backpack slot, this would especially help new players who haven't upgraded their backpack yet.
