The Best Dog Crate Covers in 2022

Designed specifically for MidWest dog crates such as the Life Stages, Ovation Trainer, and iCrate, among others, the Quiet Time Wire Dog Crate Cover from MidWest Homes for Pets is a pretty straightforward cover for wire dog crates that is both affordable and exceptionally functional. Just think of the Quiet Time as a drape you can put over your dog’s crate with each side fully capable of being opened. The downside, though, is that you will need to place the loosened flaps over the top of the crate. Don’t worry about these rolling down as they can be secured with Velcro straps. So, if you wish to provide complete privacy for your pet so that you’ll be creating a den for it, then you simply have to draw all the flaps down and secure them with the hook and loop tabs.

The Quiet Time is made of water-repellent, durable polyester. Unfortunately, once you close all the flaps down ventilation may suffer as it doesn’t come with mesh panels. The only spaces where air can possibly enter are the spaces in between flaps and those from under the crate. Nevertheless, the Quiet Time Wire Dog Crate does a good job of protecting your pet from the elements, giving it privacy, and helping it to feel more secure in its makeshift den. It’s fully machine washable and dryable, too, unlike other products that you need to wash cold and hung dry. If the friendly under-$20 price doesn’t please you, you’d still want to give it a try because MidWest is offering a 12-month warranty.

There are several reasons why the Precision Pet Indoor Outdoor Crate Cover is well-accepted by pet parents.

Molly Mutt’s Crate Cover is the most expensive in this list.
