Pets do gain experience while they're dead, but they do not benefit from scroll buffs. Try setting your pet to the "heel" stance if you do not want him dying all over the place.

| Pets gain experience and level up from combat, to a maximum level of 20. They will gain experience in this way even while dead, regardless of the distance to the dying foes, but the party screen will only update the level when the pet is within radar distance of the master. Pets do not gain experience from quest rewards or mission completion, and are unaffected by experience scrolls. The entire group of allied pets are considered as another party, thus, the experience earned by your pet decreases proportionally to the number of pets in the alliance. Note that since a pet 'dies' while you are inside a Junundu Wurm, this becomes a great way to get a pet evolved from 'Aggressive' to 'Dire' without having to do a lot of tedious death leveling. |

Note: the wiki is incorrect in stating that the pets of the party are considered a separate party. Pet experience is divided by the size of the party itself, and the presence or absence of other pets is irrelevant. If you have the only pet in a party of 8, your pet will gain 1/8 the XP that it would have if you went solo. If all members of the party have pets, your pet will still gain 1/8 the solo XP.
No buffs apply to pet XP. Pets do not get benefit from scrolls, boss bonuses, shrine bonuses, the HM bonus, or anything else that increases XP gain. However, pets always gain XP at double the rate that would be calculated for a player or hero at the same level as the pet, excluding bonuses.
