It is probably best to keep cats indoors, but there are no free roaming dogs in my neighborhood. Leash laws are strictly enforced these days, both for the welfare of the animals and the rights of home owners. I have never heard of a coyote in this part of town, though it's not impossible. I have seen a fox, but not for a long time. There has been one mountain lion sighting in the 50 years I've lived here.
