HIV can't be transmitted through insects and animals bites.
I'm not sure about pets, but i quote this from a health article. Studies have shown no evidence of HIV transmission through mosquito or other insect bites. When a mosquito bites a person it doesn't inject its own or a previously bitten person's blood, but saliva. In addition, HIV lives inside an insect for only a short time, so even if a mosquito bites someone with HIV, it doesn't become infected.
