Suri has an x pen with her food at one end and her potty pad at the other. (I use the kitty food and water container, like the ones you fill up for dogs just smaller. I was always scared to put a dog bowel cause she may knock it over of drown in it, so these work perfect) I am in nursing school and my hours are all over the place and she gets along just fine. (2-8 hours at a time, but not usually that long because I have study groups at my house) just be very careful what you put in with your pup, most toys should only be given to dogs being supervised and can potentially be lethal when left alone. So before you put anything in there ask yourself is it safe. I know I worry too much, but as long as my little girl is safe I don't care. I also put a kitty snuggle sack with her to sleep.
As far as crates, she sleeps in a crate at night with her snuggle sack. As soon as I open it she runs in and gets snuggled in for bed.
As far as two dogs, male sure you can care for one before you add. You sound like you have everything under control and will make great parents!
