You can make one yourself but IMO the auto top off units you can buy are going to work better.

Yes you will need someone to top off your water . That part is for sure. Is your goby a sifter. Does he eat prepared food. If he does you might want to get someone to put a pinch in there twice while you are gone. If you dont trust them then make a few dixie cups only 1/4 full and put a pinch in your self and freeze and just tell them to put one cube in every 4 or 5 days. That little bit wont affect much. But make sure it is 1/4 full or less.
