I like electric over gas, much simpler to replace, turn it off, just flip the breaker, turn it on just flip the breaker, no pilots to lite, don’t have to worry about gas leaks or carbon monoxide. I have checklist when I leave for week or more, I turn water heater down to pilot, cut water off out side and flush the toilet to. Release pressure., among other things. Then I do the check list in reverse when I get back.

drain water heater
When I shut down for the return to North country, I just turn off the breaker and run the hot water out and replace it with new cooler water. If you decide to turn off the water to your home, at least there is new water in the heater. Advice from a builder.
