I bought some pretty sturdy wee-wee pads ($27 each) from the breeder. Bearing in mind JoJo (at 4 pounds) is a big water dog and urinator, here was my experience:
They are not completely water proof. There were times when it went through as they became more saturated. I was using two pads in two locations and washing them both 1-2 times a day. Also, if they go near the end, it is more apt to leak through.
With my experience I would not put them directly on carpet, but maybe place a plastic tablecloth (dollar store) or something underneath to test it out.
You may have a very neat doggie who doesn't go to close to the edge and doesn't urinate a lot. It may work fine for you.
I was frustrated with the wee-wee pads, felt like I was doing laundry all the time and wiping up footprints. I switched to an indoor potty system called the Wizdog and it has worked much better for us, but we all have to evaluate our own situation!
Good luck!
