Past tense of pet

I have looked in the AHD3 and 4, Oxford, and Italian and Korean
dictionaries. None of them confirm my use of pet-pet-pet. They all insist on
pet-petted-petted.
Yet pet follows the standard short vowel, monosyllabic rule like put-put-put
and set-set-set.
Can anyone tell me if this use of pet is considered nonstandard/dialectical
or just not noted in dictionaries?
