Default Doggie diapers for female senior Yorkie?

Molly is a 13-year-old Yorkie rescue who sometimes pees at night. Almost seems like a leak. She sleeps on our bed. I've been putting pads down and that works for us, but she's going to be staying with a dogsitter soon and I wonder if there are any doggie diapers people have found effective on a 6-pound female. I want some that are easy for a dogsitter to figure out and use nightly.

I read some discussion here that people don't like diapers because it holds the urine against privates, but I'm hoping something would work for this 2-week fix. Any suggestions?

Attached is a pic of sweet Molly. Her former owners took her in to put her down more than a year ago because she had pyometra, a uterine infection whose cure is spay surgery. Vet said no, turned her over to a rescue, who turned her over to me for a foster. And I failed! She's had the best life since and is my shadow and I wouldn't dream asking her to sleep anywhere else but right next to me. This is just a temporary fix while we're gone.

Thanks for your thoughts.
