If you're going for a week or two you could most likely get away with leaving a large bowl of water in the viv on the cooler side to avoid bacteria growing. I imagine if necessary, a snake could go quite a while without water, but eventually they kidneys will be damaged. A great many imported snakes die from kidney failure from lack of water. Is there someone who could check every few days for you? The automatic dog waterer is a great idea though.
