Extra levels for its owner
"Earn XP from Alpha creature kills when equipped, to increase its level and earn additional max-levels for your Survivor!" is how the game describes it. Although mostly cosmetic, the pet lifts the level cap: every time it levels up, the survivor who has it equipped gains 1 permanent max level, and this can happen five times, for 5 extra levels at most. XP comes from killing certain creatures while it is equipped. In both games these include the 
Alpha Carnotaurus, 
Alpha Mosasaur, 
Alpha Deathworm and Enraged Corrupted Triceratops. ASA also counts creatures such as the 
Alpha Ossidon and 
Astral T-Rex, while ASE on Steam adds, for example, the 
Alpha Tridacna and Abyssal Alpha T-Rex.
Equipping and keeping it
ASA gives chibis their own Chibi slot; in ASE the pet is worn in the off-hand slot. It moves with its survivor, rides along in their lap on a mount and stays close by while they sleep. It weighs 0 and stacks to 1. The pet is an ordinary item rather than an unlocked skin: when you die it falls with the rest of your inventory and is gone for good unless you get those items back.
