Why would the Torah List animal before the Geirim?
The first few items – “your sons, daughters, servants, maidservants, and animals” – are all under your direct control. It is your personal responsibility to make sure that they rest and don’t work on Shabbos.
The convert, on the other hand, doesn’t belong to you. You should teach him what to do and what not to do, but you don’t have the power to compel his observance – that would be up to the beis din.
So the convert is in a separate category, and naturally has to be listed separately.Although this does not answer the question, it is interesting to note that Yonasan Ben Uziel leaves out the animals in this Posuk!
