Whatever your relationship status is, know that you’ll always have somebody to share a Halloween couples costume with: Your pet! Halloween costumes for dogs and cats and their owners (known as pet parents here at Chewy) will always beat out just about any human duo’s coordinated outfits at the Halloween costume contest. And that’s a statement we’re willing to stand behind! I mean, can you think of anything more adorable than doggy (or kitty)-and-me costumes, or more creative for that matter? Especially when you DIY your half of these matching dog or cat costumes…
Though this Halloween is bound to look quite different than those of years’ past, you can still find ways to celebrate. If you decide to dress up, it’s understandable not to want to spend a ton of money on a costume without a big Halloween bash to attend. So, we’ve created a few super easy and budget-friendly DIY Halloween costumes for you that perfectly coordinate with some of our favorite dog Halloween costumes and cat Halloween costumes.
Together, you and your pet can dress up as bumblebees, “The Bachelor” and “Bachelorette,” a hot dog and vendor and even avocado toast. In these matching dog costumes and matching cat costumes, you two will be the definition of #relationshipgoals.
