Esme stays at home in her playpen while we are at work. She has her crate in there, some toys and a pee pad. She is pee pad trained by the way and the playpen is a real one for children that I purchased at Walmart. Up to now, this has worked out perfect for us. I think she is getting too big for the play pen though (she was 3.5lbs on her last vet visit) and we will have to move up to some sort of doggie gate or something so she has more space. Eventually, I want her to have full reign of the house while we are away at work, but she isn't ready for so much responsibility yet!
Good Luck! Training CAN be done, even when you have to work!
