The Petkit YumShare Dual-Hopper 2 is a 2025 upgrade to Petkit’s popular smart feeder, now enhanced with an AI-enabled camera and dual food storage. This automatic feeder is perfect for multi-pet households or pets on mixed diets – it houses two separate 5L hoppers, allowing you to dispense from two types of kibble or a mix (including freeze-dried pieces)
Via the Petkit app, you can set customised feeding schedules for each hopper or trigger feedings on demand, even while away. The built-in 1080p HD camera (with night vision) lets you watch your pets eat in real-time and even records short video “feeding highlights,” identifying which pet is eating thanks to AI facial recognition. In practice, this means the feeder can log individualized meal portions per cat if you have two cats, for example, and alert you if one pet isn’t showing up to eat as usual. The camera supports two-way audio as well, so you can call your pets over or reassure them with your voice from anywhere. Petkit’s engineering shines in the feeding mechanism: an infrared sensor checks for leftover kibble in the bowl after each meal – the AI will delay or skip the next portion if food remains, preventing overfeeding or jams. The unit also has a desiccant and sealed lids to keep food fresh for up to 30 days. We found the app intuitive and feature-rich, letting you adjust portion sizes (down to a few grams), set meal call voice recordings, and review daily feeding logs per pet. The feeder runs on wall power with battery backup, ensuring reliability even if the power goes out. One caveat: some advanced features (like video history beyond 7-day highlights or AI dietary analytics) require an optional Petkit+ subscription – however, core functions work without it. Overall, the YumShare Dual 2 stands out for its thoughtful multi-pet design and smart features. It not only automates feeding but also gives you peace of mind and insight into your pets’ eating habits when you’re not home.
