The degree does depend on the pet to be fair. I have said similar "it's not that they care, it's that I care and find that rewarding" type things when family members have asked why I'd have non-social animals like lizards as pets.
True! Same reason I keep fish. I know the fish don't love me back, but I derive joy from keeping little creatures in an ecosystem that I've cultivated for them. In conclusion, I'm God.
