Need tips for settling puppy during his awake period: while balancing work!!

So our 9 week old golden puppy has been home with us for a week now and we’ve established a great 1 up 1.5-2 down routine , with all naps and overnight sleep in his crate. He has absolutely no problem settling in his crate to sleep (we have blankets and cover it) but the issue is having to keep a constant eye and company when he is awake! My SO wfh and will be dealing with him alone next week while I go into the office, and is very worried about juggling meetings and the puppy.. we were thinking of confining him to the kitchen with the door open so he can freely toilet outside during the times where he is bound to a meeting when he is awake. The ideal scenario is ofc he plays nicely by himself but I suppose he is only still a baby!

any tips fellow puppy owners? How old do they get better at settling by themselves?
