Take a look at the getting started information and familiarize yourself with the concepts involved in multiboxing. Taking the time upfront will greatly increase your leveling speed and effectiveness. The forums have valuable posts stickied, read up!
Two of any class are viable to multibox, just do your research and make use of the search function here, the odds are good all the newbie questions you'll have have already been discussed in detail.
If you have not already had your expectations set regarding setting up your first multibox configuration: it will take a little time and effort getting used to it and setting up whatever macros etc you might need, but the reward is well worth it.

DPS specs are better generally for leveling.
Kill things faster, level quicker.
For druids, you could go dual feral cats.
Or dual boomkins.
Either tree has a lot of damage options.
And with druids, you also have heals to reduce downtime.
Look into, "Click to Move" and "Interact With Target".
Get the addon Jamba.
Choose a software option, InnerSpace is my recommendation, but Keyclone, HotKeyNet, GameCommanderPro, AutoHotKey and Octopus are other options.
If you search for an answer to a question first, a lot of people here will help you out.
Good luck, boxing.

My fiance and I are both dual-boxing cat/hunters in Hellfire atm.
We very rarely even have to stop and heal. I am about to respec bear and she is going to dual-spec tree, then we can start doing some instances.

Ok I actually have another question. Like i said i only plan on Dual Boxing two Druids using the recruit a friend system. So im actually only taking them to lvl 60. Is there a free keyclone type software that would work for my purpose?

1) Two druids are very easy to dual-box. Just have to set up follow and assist and the rest is just duplicating your macros on both chars.
2) We have a large resource of documentation people here have compiled to help answer your question about free software alternatives to Keyclone. It can be found here: http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/Software (Sidenote: the "GM Approved" thing is largely a selling feature more than fact as most of the rest have been approved as well, just not explicitly in a nice, quotable blue post. The Software forum is also a great resource for answering your question. See the stickies in there for a wealth of good info.
