Default Turning off water main: shutdown water heater first?

What Roy was going to write, also. The white knob on top of the gas
valve turns to pilot. Don't have to adjust the black knob on the side
of the controls.

For electric WH, look in your panel box for a double 30 breaker.

In addition to all of the other posting in reply, if you have a hot
water tank heated by NG, you can just turn the control to PILOT for
the time being while doing the repair. After the repair , just turn it
back to the original setting.
