Here you can check the ability of each pet:http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Lore_Slot_Abilities
I pick up Arachnos for the theme, The fortunata have MIND link and Singel target heal. With the low HP that spiderlings have is better to give him +def since Lore pet will be following you or the lore boss.
If you want the AoE then pick Cimerorans soldier lore. Idk how well it performe.
I want /Fire stalker. Because nothing says stealth like dumping a can of gasoline on yourself and lighting a match. -Morac

Not knowing your build or your game play setting it would be sort of hard to give you a real answer.
Whats your build ?
What difficult level do you normally play on solo ?
Are your pets Perma ?
What other Incarnates do you have atm ?
What are you Defenses like ?
As an example I have a huntsman which is range capped. I have the 2 pet sets which are perma and I have barrier which might be redundant for me but it does cap me out and maxes out my resistances as well. I am fighting Malta on a 4/8 with Barrier and my pets. That being said I went with the Spider incarnate and bane for theme / looks.
If I was not perma pets I would have went with a heal and some sort of flying buffing or healing pet. But not for my pets, I could careless about them. I want to survive.

I'm in the process of getting barrier for the pets. And for myself during incarnate trials (I'm 45% capped elsewhere). My pets are basically perma - I have about 8 seconds downtime @193% recharge.
My problem lies in pets finishing a fight in the red - they could easily survive the next x8 spawn if they were topped off en route.
I took the offensive Arachnos pets (Toxic Tarantula and Bane Spider) for theme as well as the toxic damage going nicely with Venom Grenade's hefty resistance debuff. I give my pets ~20% to all with TT:maneuvers and leadership maneuvers, so they're pretty survivable anyway, and I took Rebirth destiny to top them up now and again.
I do have Warworks partway up its tree (from before Arachnos were added) - the boss is pretty good for damage and the battle orb gives defence and a single target heal which would no doubt help.
If you're finding them squishy you might get more out of the various pet set procs - 2x+5% defence and 2x+10% resistance available if you can spare the slots.
