Until you two establish a relationship you should control her freedom. If you need to go to the bathroom turn it into a training session. Get a treat, say "kennel", throw it in the crate, she goes in after, close the door. You are teaching her "kennel" means get in the crate, you are controlling her freedom, she is secure while you go to the bathroom.
