Others have said it, i.e. padded jack stands (or fill tires to about 40-43 psi), trickle charge battery, full tank of gas, car cover, etc.
If it's possible, it's better to have someone trustworth to drive the car 10 miles once a week. It would be good if they could change the oil after 9 months (half way) but even if they didn't, the mileage from driving a 10 mile drive once a week would be only 800 miles. Actually, twice a week might be better but too much work.
