While you may be going a little stir-crazy at home after weeks of abiding by shelter-in-place orders to help squash the coronavirus, there are some members of the family who are glad you’ve been around so much lately: our pets.
They’re always around to make things a little better, whether we’re sad, lonely or just plain bored during this global pandemic. And it’s the same for musicians.
See how artists are spending time at home with their furry buddies below.
Alex Gaskarth
The All Time Low frontman is trying to work from home during the pandemic, but his baby goats Milk, Poe and Gryff aren’t making it easy. In one Instagram video, the musician is trying to promote his record, but the goats are intent on snuggling and climbing all over him. In another photo, he’s napping as the three snuggle up on top of him.
Ariana Grande
Ariana Grande has about a thousand dogs, and they’re all Instagram stars.
Barbra Streisand
The legendary singer showed off how her dog was basically all of us as news of the severity of the coronavirus pandemic was becoming clearer.
Billie Eilish
The “Bad Guy” singer was doing some good during the coronavirus pandemic by fostering two pit bull puppies, but she turned into a foster fail when she decided to keep one of them. “As for this little nameless monkey… you are miiiiiiiiiiiine!!!” she shared on her Instagram Stories in mid April.
Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes
The couple, who are quarantining together, shared some couch time with the dogs.
Cee Lo Green
The former Voice coach had his dog, Zu, help out during the pandemic by filming a message for the ASPCA to raise funds to help pets and pet owners impacted by COVID-19.
Gloria Estefan
The “Conga” singer checked in with her fans while showing off her dogs. “Hello, everyone! I’m focusing on the only things that are keeping me sane at this moment — these little furry balls of wonder,” she says in her Instagram video as she pans around to show her pups playing in a sunny yard.
Ice-T
The rapper and actor spent some quality family time with wife Coco, daughter Chanel, and two of their adorable dogs at a park.
J Balvin
The reggaeton singer has been having some fun with his dogs in quarantine, whether he’s using one of their noses to pretend to make squeaky toy noises, or just showing off how ridiculously cute they are.
Justin Bieber
The pop superstar snuggled in a family photo with wife Hailey Baldwin and their pup, Oskie.
Katy Perry
The “Daisies” singer dressed up her little pooch as Dumbo while she was Dumbo’s mom ahead of American Idol‘s Disney Night episode.
Kesha
The singer spoiled her kitty Carl with some fancy seating. (Meanwhile, her “egomaniac” cat Mr. Peeps did an interview after being named Billboard’s Cat of the Universe.)
Lady Gaga
Mother Monster would love to visit with her parents and grandmas, but is snuggling with her three dogs instead.
Luke Bryan
The American Idol judge filmed a socially distanced episode of the singing competition with some help from one of his adorable dogs.
Mandy Moore
The actress and singer’s cat peanut joined her and Dawes to do a little show during quarantine.
Maluma
The singer is staying fit while in quarantine, with a little help from his gorgeous dogs.
Megan Thee Stallion
Megan Thee Stallion, who was already mom to adorable Frenchie 4oe, got another sweet lil pup named Dos in May 2020. (The rapper also gave her grandma Dos’ littermate as a birthday gift.) She added to her family again in September, this time with a gray pup named X who has stunning blue eyes.
Miley Cyrus
To tease Demi Lovato as one of her guests on Bright Minded — Cyrus’ Instagram Live show aimed at keeping people connected during the pandemic — the “Don’t Call Me Angel” showed off her dogs Mary Jane, Bean and Emu in a video. “Like all of you watching, they cannot believe that Demi Lovato is going to be on the show,” she gushed.
Two months after Mary Jane’s death, Cyrus revealed that as much as she missed her late dog, a new pit bull had come into her life to bring some love. “I feel her here with me blessing this new member to my family who’s name is ‘Angel’ because she was delivered to me by one… My Mary,” the star wrote on social media. “It breaks my heart to know Angel was sleeping on concrete in a shelter for 3 months before finally making it home.”
“I thought I lost you when you ran away to try & find me. I thought I'd never see your sweet face again. I turned around and you were gone & on the days went. I kept the moments that we were in. Cause I hoped in my heart you’d come back to me my friend. And now I got you… pic.twitter.com/AX2BYAPOVm
