People would also say they'd take or pack their kids, not travel with them. I've traveled with my pets. Packing for an evacuation isn't the same.
Even if we allow for the consideration of the pets being property, people weren't forced to leave their luggage or documents behind, just their pets. Pets can be put in traveling cases and packed under the bus with the rest of the luggage, and since they don't people down underneath in the first place, no person will be displaced. Pet's can also sit in your lap, and since they aren't requiring people to double up in seats, I don't see how that stops any person from evacuating. Most people don't have Irish wolfhounds, so space isn't a consideration.
The only real consideration is allergies, and allowances can be made for that by having pet and non-pet buses.
