Honestly there are so many alternatives to the term "spirit animal", which is a weird neologism from the neo-shamanic grift fad from the 1980s (people like Michael Harner translating the word "totem" as "power animal" etc) Daemon, familiar, tutelary spirit

OTOH there are some decent reasons not to use 'patronus' or a derivative. E.g. do we really want to imply that our protector spirit is inherently mapped to a term for "father"?
