My mom is in the hospital so were sitting up here. Bella has been in the crate for about 1 hour and a half now. I don't know when I will be home considering we are waiting to find out when her surgery is and we will be here a while after the surgery.. She has never been crated for longer then 2 hours and I don't want her to soil her crate

First off, fingers crossed for your mom. Regarding crate time, the general rule of thumb I've always heard is the pup's age in months, + 1 hour, so if your pup is 3 months old, 4 hours would be the top time he/she can be crated without relieving himself/herself.
