How to Wash Your Dog Crate Cover
Keeping your dog's crate cover fresh is easy with our machine washable cotton canvas covers. Simply remove the cover from the crate and wash at 30-40°C with a mild detergent. Our 100% cotton canvas is durable enough for regular washing, so you can keep your dog's den clean and hygienic without any fuss.
For stubborn stains or odours, pre-treat the affected area before washing. Always air dry or tumble dry on low heat to preserve the fabric's quality and vibrant patterns. Do not use bleach or products containing bleach additives, and avoid leaving the cover sitting in the washer after the cycle finishes.
We recommend washing your crate cover every 2–4 weeks, or more frequently if your dog spends a lot of time outdoors. Regular washing reduces allergens, dirt, and bacteria — keeping the den fresh and your home smelling clean. The durable cotton maintains its softness and shape, wash after wash.
Why Choose a Cotton Dog Crate Cover
Most wire crates are functional but far from beautiful — and bare metal bars do little to help an anxious or easily-distracted dog settle. A cotton canvas crate cover transforms any wire crate into a darker, cosier den that taps into your dog's natural instinct to seek shelter. Less visual stimulation, less stress, better rest.
Unlike synthetic covers that trap heat, our 100% cotton canvas breathes naturally, regulating temperature and keeping your dog comfortable in every season. Cotton is hypoallergenic and gentle on sensitive skin, and because our covers are certified non-toxic and free from harmful chemicals, you can rest assured your pet is sleeping safely. Cotton also softens with every wash and holds its shape and colour over time — a sustainable, biodegradable choice that reduces waste.
What Size Crate Cover Do I Need
Getting the right size crate cover is straightforward — just measure your wire crate's length, width, and height before ordering. Our covers are designed to fit standard wire dog crates, so matching your crate dimensions to the size guide on each product page will give you a snug, neat fit.
If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing up. A slightly larger cover drapes better, is easier to fit, and still looks tidy. Make sure the cover doesn't block ventilation panels entirely — airflow is important, especially in warmer months. When in doubt, check the size guide on the individual product page or get in touch and we'll help you find the right fit for your dog's crate!
