A professional aquarium maintenance company will spend as much time with your tanks each day as you're willing to pay for.
As I said above, I always had all the water made up for the tank sitter, he just had to put it in the proper places when it was needed. He did mix up saltwater himself for waterchanges using the RO/DI that I had stored for him. If I had the space at the time I would have had all the saltwater pre-mixed for him too.
I have been using this same aquarium maintenance company for a few years now, and he is very reliable. When I was away in June this year he came to my house
twice a day for a week because of certain situation that called for this.
In the end, a person does what s/he feels comfortable with and hopefully that combined with some luck is enough to keep our reefs alive while we are gone.
