1.7k on VoA seems low in my opinion. Anyway as BM you pet can out-dps you and contributes about half your damage (or mine used to when I had #$%^ gear) so your dps will suffer from that. What you can do in the less pet friendly fights is to use Arcane Shot as much as possible to help on your dps and if you got Steady Glyph, keep your sting up as much as possible.
But in general nothing much you can do to improve your dps without your pet on the mob, unless you want to spend gold on scrolls/food/elixirs.
Feel free to flame :)
P.S. I use multi-shot sometimes along with arcane.
Edit: In a full BM spec your pet should have decent survival chances, maybe you should fix your pet talents around and put some talents in lolSpiritBond or Mend Pet, I know spirit bond is amazing when your healer can land 17k+ crits on your gorilla while doing gundrak duo >.>

Agreed on the multi being a bad idea. Good idea on the new pet, but I'm no much of a fan of every hunter BM going around 50/21 with cats ;p

What I do in nexus is manually move the cat around, jump like an idiot and spam Arcane. Since tanks rarely move I don't bother much trying to keep pet alive and pop BW at the last %s and let pet die from DoT.
To be honest haven't really check my dps for that fight, I'm more focused on using tranq shot when she enrages and moving the pet for some extra dps.

Some battles like Nexus you'll lose considerable DPS.
Yesterday I farmed Badges... on simple fights like Igvar or Void (screw the adds, just get the void and get a the achiev =P), I managed to get 2900 dps...
But on Keri (Nexus dragon), my dps went down to 1300, I did worse than the tank. My pet died three times (revived him when she chained us) and I casted a lot less Steadies than I usually would. Though, I think the healer was ignoring my pet (can't blame him, Holy Paladins suffer on that fight).
But we are not the only class that suffer depending on fight. Most dragon fights Rogues can't go behind, losing a considerable damage output. Not to mention battles when the boss moves a lot (or make you move).
