The most thorough way to do that is to set up a second Apple account on one of the devices. If you do not, you will have to discontinue using iCloud on one of the devices. Having active iCloud means that everything on one device is put on all other devices signed in with that ID and on which iCloud ia active.


Read this support article about how to change your iCloud feature settings [iOS and Mac] - Change which apps sync and store data with iCloud - Apple Support - "'When you turn off an iCloud feature on a device, information stored only in iCloud for that feature is no longer available on the device. If you turn off Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Notes, Reminders, or iCloud Photos on just one device, you can still view and change your information on iCloud.com and on another device you set up for that feature."
