Creature Handler XP and Advancement

There are four ways to gain Creature Handler XP: successfully taming a baby, teaching a new command to a pet, teaching a pet its name, and having your pet contribute to the death of an NPC or creature.

To gain experience through combat you need to kill something that's powerful enough to be a challenge to your pet (not necessarily to you) to get decent amounts of XP this way. If the target's CL is less than half that of your pet, you'll get 1 XP from the victory. To get experience, the pet must simply get a hit in on the target. The pet owner can finish off the target and receive the creature handling experience upon the target's death.

Special notes about non-adult pets:

For purposes of determining xp only, the creature's level will be considered to be no less than half of the creature's adult level. e.g. Adult gurrecks are considered to be CL 50. A baby gurreck will be considered to be level 25 minimum, which will eventually increase as the pet grows until it has reached its adult level. This means that a gurreck pet must attack creatures higher Challenge level than 25 in order to not receive 1 point of experience.

If you start using two pets at once, it's important to note that your XP per kill will be divided by the current number of active pets so if you were getting 1000 experience with one pet out, you will only get 500 if you have 2.
