How do/would you run Sidekicks? (aussie.zone)

My players have become fond of an NPC and are trying to train them up as a sort of member of the party.

So far I've been kinda fudging their stats, but I'd like to come up with something more concrete. I've got the D&D 5e book Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, but unfortunately that's a super slim set of rules that mostly focuses on "at this level, they get this specific ability", so doesn't provide a lot of help in translating to Pathfinder.

Does anyone know some good variant or homebrew rules for giving the party a Sidekick in PF2? Or alternatively, have any advice?

Reflavor a Skeleton companion into a person and let them use equipment. And maybe scrub the minion trait if you want control of them as the GM. I'd personally let the PC's control them in combat and let them use the Minion trait.
