One of the type taken for a walk? (3)

I believe the answer is:

pet

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a walk?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'one of the type taken for' is the wordplay.
'one of' indicates a hidden word.
'PET' is hidden within 'type taken for'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pet that I've seen before include "Loved domestic animal" , "A dear one exhibits sulkiness" , "Favourite pupil" , "Favourite, favoured one" , "Preferred" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
