Another thing we've done before a long trip is turn off our second water heater. We leave one on in case our daughter comes home and needs to wash something.

We live in a small town and notify the police when we're leaving and they do drive by checks. They even did this during Glen's extended stay in the hospital. They did their job too well. We left the back porch door open so our kitty could eat on his feeding table on the porch. I would come home and the door would be closed so I opened it. The police would come by and find that I had opened it, so they closed it again! Back and forth we went. Fortunately we have good neighbors who also feed the kitty.
