Details

  • This sunscreen top blocks 80% of run rays and helps keep your dog cool and comfortable while playing in their outdoor exercise pen (sold separately).
  • Dog pen sunscreen is UV-resistant and extremely breathable promoting healthy airflow through the exercise pen.
  • Includes plastic zip ties and grommets for a secure attachment to the dog pen with no tools required for assembly.

MidWest Crate Accessories

Home Sweet Home

MidWest Homes For Pets® offers a wide variety of accessories, so you can create a crate that's comfortable for your canine companion. Help your dog feel right at home by adding final touches to his space like secured dog bowls for mealtime, privacy covers that turn his crate into a low-lit sanctuary or high-quality doggy beds for added cushion and luxury.

Snap'y Fit Doggy Bowls

MidWest Homes For Pets® Snap'y Fit Bowl makes crate time meals easy for your pet. The patented bracket attaches to the sides of your dog's crate and helps reduce messy spills by keeping the bowl secure and elevated as he chows down and hydrates. It's made of stainless steel to help prevent rusting and it comes in four sizes, so you can find the best possible fit for your best friend.

QuietTime® Crate Covers

Even dogs desire a little peace and quiet every once in a while. That's why QuietTime® Crate Covers are a great addition to almost any MidWest crate. Choose between a geo-print with Teflon™ fabric protector or classic black polyester for extra privacy. The lightweight covers offer plenty of air-flow and can fit crates with up to three doors. They're even finished with hook and loop tabs to keep them securely in place.

Answer by ChewyMar 02, 2025
This product listing is just for the sunscreen mesh top, it does not include a pen. The sunscreen top measures 48 by 48 inches.

Is this mesh screen waterproof?

Answer by ChewyAug 19, 2019
This screen is not waterproof.

Does this item let much light through or does it leave the inside of the pen dark?

Bunny defense

Fits perfectly! Just as described. We got it to prevent the bunny from jumping out and it’s perfect.

Pretty snug

A little hard to fit. It pulls the pen inward, so that the latches on the gate do not line up as smoothly as they should. It would also be nice if the fixtures

A little hard to fit. It pulls the pen inward, so that the latches on the gate do not line up as smoothly as they should. It would also be nice if the fixtures were reusable, instead of being plain zip ties.

Great pen topper to help keep pups in

I'm using this for an indoor pen to keep my pup from climbing out from the top of her crate. It's folded over into a triangle only over her crate with 2x4s spanning

I'm using this for an indoor pen to keep my pup from climbing out from the top of her crate. It's folded over into a triangle only over her crate with 2x4s spanning inside the unsupported folded edge to prevent that portion from sagging. The product comes with zip ties to secure it to a pen, but I've opted to use easily removeable carabiner clips.

Wire instead of mesh arrived

I ordered the sunscreen mesh covering but instead a huge metal top made out of the same material as an ex-pen, arrived. Wasn’t what I was looking for as it isn’t

I ordered the sunscreen mesh covering but instead a huge metal top made out of the same material as an ex-pen, arrived. Wasn’t what I was looking for as it isn’t the mesh and doesn’t help with any shade etc. I didn’t bother chewy about it though as it’s such a huge item to return and they’ve been so gracious helping us on other things. I ended up donating it to a new puppy owner since it won’t work for me.

Needs removeable attachment

The screen ships with zip ties to attach to the x-pen. I would loke removeable attachments to make it easier to move for lawn mowing and cleaning up. Currently

Pretty good

I ordered 3 of these. 2 of the 3 came with the zip-ties. Not all sewn exactly perfect. However i would still purchase these again if i needed a few more.
