There is no such thing as a proverbial cow, it is just an expression. It is used to describe getting something exactly right.

What would someone mean by saying 'it's always nice to have proverbial company'?

"Proverbial" means relating to a proverb. Originally, people used it in expressions like, "Well, I see the sun is out, so I'd best make the proverbial hay." The word "proverbial" tells us that the word "hay" is to be understood in terms of a proverb, in this case "Make hay while the sun shines".Unfortunately a lot of people liked the sound of "the proverbial __________" so they started using it even when they had no proverb in mind. In the sentence in your question, it's hard to imagine what proverb they might be alluding to ("two's company; three's a crowd" doesn't seem to fit), so it is very possible that the word "proverbial" serves no purpose, and what the person meant was "It's always nice to have company" which is straightforward enough.
