Since we can’t control pets in any way, selecting an action should automatically cancel whatever the pet was doing so the selected Sim isn’t standing around forever waiting for the dog/cat to finish what they’re doing so the selected action can begin.
I remember in Sims 2 University time management was an nightmare until I discovered coffee but it had an downside to it.
