Pets? Anal retentive people?
What part do home invadors consider when dealing with pets?

People who know their neighbors.
Think of how many people within sight range of your house you know. Not just know his name, but eat meals together occasionally, house-watch each other, etc.
These are the people who would otherwise not bother a criminal when he parks his van in your driveway and starts loading up your TV/Computer/Paintings/etc simply because they do not want to say anything in case it's just a friend helping you move. By knowing your neighbors, and them knowing you, they would know if you were moving or selling off your stuff.
It's these people who would help you by calling the cops.
