I think that what you want to do is tell a trusted neighbor. Or if you have family close by, you want to tell them you're going to be on vacation. Tell them how long you're going to be on vacation, and also give them telephone numbers where they can contact you. If that's the hotel or if that's on your cell phone, or whatever means of communication, make sure that they have it in case there is an emergency.
