I have seen this myself, but I know it goes back a while. Often when sending a group in with bots who have pets, pets bounce back and forth between the target and the pet's owner. This is usually due to line of sight issues.

I have multiple bot groups set up with hotkeys so that I can send in group(s) on multiple targets at once. If the bots do not have line of sight, shaman pets seem to be the only ones that go in, but as soon as they reach the target, they head back to their owners (after aggroing the mob first). Every once in a while I see mage, beastlord, or chanter pets bounce back and forth, but they tend to not go in unless they have line of sight first. I see this mostly when trying to attack through an open doorway or up/down steps. It seems like they go off of their owner's line of sight, since if they reach their target, they should be able to see them.

At some point I may get around to looking into this, but since I've mostly dealt with spell casting, line of sight and all of that may be a little harder for me to debug and fix.
