Tips for using Google Nest to manage home security during long trips with car rentals?

Hi everyone! I travel frequently and often use car rental services when I arrive at my destination. Does anyone have recommendations on how to set up Google Nest to monitor my home and manage security alerts while I’m away for extended periods? For example, I’ll be using a car rental in Houston  soon, and it would be helpful if my Nest devices could go into ‘away’ mode automatically when I leave for the airport. Any ideas on how to best set this up with Nest’s automation settings?
