QuietTime Crate Cover

I love the Midwest brand in general. The size of the cover is an indicated and works great with their crates. It is durable and easily washable. It is not thick, so it does not create total darkness in the crate. Super easy to put on the crate.

The only thing that would make this product go from a 99.9% to a 100+% would be if there were some sort of ties or way to secure it to the crate, at minimum on two sides, preferably three, and a way to tie back the flap on the door side(s).We only use one of the doors on our 2 door 54” crate, and even though the fit is perfect, my dog has major separation anxiety from 3 years of being in and out of foster homes and shelters, and even though he has been with us for almost two years now, and we have done everything the trainers, and vet behaviorists, have told us to do, he still can’t handle being alone. And yes, we have even tried medicating him… He is a 100+lb Foxy Dane (½ Foxhound ½ Great Dane,) and his metabolism just burns through every medication we’ve tried… and seriously, we’ve tried everything, and every combination of meds, he might respond at first, but within an hour or two at most it’s worn off, and he is even more distressed, so we don’t medicate anymore.ANYWAYS! Back to the review!!! We needed the 54” X-LARGE crate, our dude is BIG even if he THINKS he’s the same size as a chihuahua! This cover is really the only one on the market that fits the crate, and is made with any quality.I absolutely love that the fabric is lightweight, but isn’t flimsy. The fit is perfect for the crate, the Velcro closures at every corner makes putting on, and using the cover extremely easy and fool proof! (Even my husband is able to put on and take off this cover without any confusion!!!)The ONLY… ONLY… ONLY thing that would push this cover absolutely ridiculously over the top is if there was the addition of ties to secure the cover to the crate, and having a tie back available for the door flaps to help keep them up and out of the way when the door is open.The reason I say this brings into my dogs separation anxiety that I described above. Because of his anxiety, he tries to pull whatever cover is on his crate off by pulling it through the bars. He is so goofy, he won’t go into the crate if it isn’t covered, and nice and dark, but once he is in, even if a flap is left up, he still tries to get the whole cover off, then freaks out more because now he isn’t covered…He wasn’t able to completely remove the crate cover the first few times we tried him with it, but he was able to pull it somewhat off and into his crate. (This does speak extremely well of the fit and quality of this item, because even in his frenzied state, the Velcro side closures held firm, he just found a way to lift the cover up before beginning to pull it down into the crate itself.) So I went to the craft store, bought some heavy duty fabric that I then made my own ties and sewed them onto the cover.I now have four ties at the bottom of one of the long sides, and three ties each at the bottom of the two short sides. I placed the ties so that there is one for each corner, and the middle is able to tie down as well. I use these to tie the cover securely to the bottom of his crate (below the crate pan and bed so he can’t get to them.) Just adding these ties to the three sides that we don’t use has made the BIGGEST difference! He now knows that he can’t pull the cover off anymore because it’s actually secured, (and yes… he tried HARD to see if he could figure out how to thwart my plan!) And surprisingly he actually calms down quicker now because he isn’t getting himself worked up over the cover anymore.As for the top flap ties. I added two Velcro straps to the front top seam of the flap where our door is, in order to be able to secure it up and out of the way before I open his door and am hit by a ridiculously happy nuclear war head escaping from his crate to get to me so he can show me just how happy he is that I’ve returned.The very first time we used the cover, before I made my additions, I didn’t anticipate the fabric panel sliding back towards me and the door, and it almost got caught up in the explosion of dog excitement. Had it actually gotten caught on the door, I can imagine it would have ripped, through no fault in the quality of the fabric, just through sheer force and violence of the door being thrown open from the full weight of my giant lap dog. :D and this was before I even secured the other sides down!!!But in all seriousness, this is a 99.99999% perfect product! I do love the fabric, the fit, and the quality. He loves his dark “den” when I am home, I just needed the extra little security that tie downs provide us for the times when I do unfortunately have to leave the house and he isn’t allowed to come with me.Soooooo if in the future these features are ever added to a “new version” of this same size cover, You have a perfect product tester ready and waiting!! ;) *wink, wink*

Perfect fit and easy to fold and pack. This cover can provide security for nervous dogs or quiet time for dogs that need it.I was pleasantly surprised by the white piping detail on the cover. Very nice cover.

While on the pricey side, for something you could whip up in 20 minutes on a sewing machine with one yard of fabric...lets face it, that sewing machine is just for show and you should just drop the $30 to buy this ready made dog crate cover. While the fabric is a little thin, it completely does its job and covers my dog crate. The fabric is pretty and goes with my living room decor aka millennial gray decor. It also looks much better than the rotation of blankets we would drape over the pen for doggy bed time.I purchased two different sizes to go with two of amazon's brand crates, both fit perfectly by paying attention to the length measurement.I would definitely recommend this product, only con is the thinness of the fabric. Buy it!

It fits perfectly over the crate, and it’s washing machine friendly (which is nice)! Very easy to put together. Over time, we don’t use it so much at home, but more for traveling and staying in hotels. We actually traveled with our dog WITHOUT it once, and we learned our lesson. It helps keep his view “darker” with less distractions (people walking down the hall, lights, etc) which helps him sleep better. Definitely recommend!

The MidWest Homes for Pets Dog Crate Cover is a great addition to my dog’s crate. It fits perfectly on my 24-inch MidWest crate, providing a cozy, den-like environment for my pup. The black fabric helps reduce light and distractions, making it great for nighttime or when my dog needs a calm space.I also love that it’s machine washable and easy to maintain. The material is durable yet lightweight, and it has Velcro panels for easy access to the crate doors.Overall, this is a well-made, functional, and stylish crate cover that provides extra comfort for dogs. Highly recommend!

Let me start off by saying, Texas thunderstorms create chaos. These covers save my sanity. I bought two in one size. One in another. I have two large dogs and one tiny. These covers fit perfectly. They are good quality soft and breathable ( texas is HOT) Easy to put on. Just shake and lay, then velcro sides. So far my durability rating is high. My puppy seems to think he is snoopy. No holes. No tears. Photo below is small kennel. Don't mind the duct tape trap.

We bought this cover for our goldendoodle puppy's crate, for the dual purpose of making her crate prettier to look at and giving her the cozy / private 'den' feel that dogs love. We ordered the one that matched the measurements of the crate we purchased - double-checking ahead of time! - but it wasn't an exact fit, with the front and back portions not lining up well enough to velcro fully closed. Because the fabric is shorter than the length of the crate, the puppy has been able to pull corners and pieces in and chew on them. The fabric itself isn't super sturdy and has snagged more easily than we expected it to.The most disappointing aspect of this cover has been that it shrunk in the laundry after a bout of puppy diarrhea necessitated a wash. I washed it according to the directions and even so, the fit on the crate after washing was visibly worse than it had been before.In terms of what I like about it, the color and pattern are very pretty and do look really nice in the corner of our living room, which is painted gray with white baseboard / trim. It does do a good job of concealing the eyesore of a crate underneath, but I just wish it appeared more tailored and was sturdier.
