Things like turning the water off, or unplugging things... At minimum I shut the water valve and unplug pretty much anything I can. I'll usually set the thermostats to be a little more extreme than usual. Do you do anything?

I clean the house before I leave so that it's one less thing to stress about when I get back.

I do the things you mentioned but also turn off the wifi.

Cleaning before leaving is a game changer. To add to this, launder your bedsheets and towels and have them ready to go for when you get back. Not only will your home smell fresh, but you'll feel fresh after washing off the travel grime and have a nap.

“Travel grime” hit me hard, I’m currently traveling and the airports I had to pass through were balmy as hell; airports and aircraft were full of the smelliest people
