My tank is almost automated besides feeding coral/fish, cleaning glass, manual fleece roller, emptying skimmer cup and waterchange. Is there anything I should do or prep for. House sitter is an option but will have 0 knowledge about reef tank.

I am thinking about adding 2 dosing pumps for water in and out. Doing 2% daily. Also removing the fleece roller and not use a filter sock either. Glass can stay dirty till i get back. Connect the skimmer cup to a bucket via a tube, add a camera setup so I can view it at any time.
 
have ready mixed saltwater ready in case of emergency for sitter ,also rinsed bag GAC or carbon pads on hand.
