This question seems to get asked a lot, but not really answered. Are the creatures generated by items considered pets? Will they receive bonuses from items such as Tasker & Theo or Enforcer?
A friend is considering building a character packed with as many creature generating items as possible, simply for the amusement value of having a menagerie of random creatures following them around. It got us to wondering whether any of these bonuses would do anything.
Examples of the items in question would be Genzaniku, Skycutter, The Gidbinn, Bovine Bardiche, Maximus, Corrupted Ashbringer, Golden Gorget of Leoric, Haunt of Vaxo, Nagelring, The Grin Reaper, Visage of Giyua & Belt of Transcendence.
Thanks very much for your response and for taking the time to test it. I had assumed the fetishes from BoT did the same amount of damage as regular fetishes since they're included in most of the Zunimassa builds.
I think he was planning to use Zunimassa as a base, I'll make sure he knows the other creatures are crap lol.
The Gidbinn and Belt of Transcendence spawns Fetishes (creatures from WD passive "Fetish Sycophants") and they get benefit from Tasker & Theo, Mask of Jeram, Zuni set or Enforcer gem. They also count as fetish army so they get bonus from "Fetish Army Damage" rolled on shoulders, chest and mojo.
All other creatures spawned from other items gets bonus only from Tasker & Theo (at least this was the case on RoS launch).
Considering the 6 part of Zuni is "Enemies hit by your Mana spenders take 5500% increased damage from your pets for 8 seconds." it should effect the other creatures then, as Mad_Tom mentioned.

Very long time ago I tested Nagelring with Zuni and it seems that Zuni set is boosting the pet explosions created by the Nagelring.
