In an early scene when Jill is alone and the alarm goes off the first time, the alarm company calls moments later. In a later scene, she sets off the alarm accidently upon reentering the house and this time the alarm company does not call. [Alarm monitoring companies are like all businesses - they only have a certain amount of staff working at any given time. In the first instance, an employee of the alarm company may have had no other calls, and could respond promptly. In the second instance, all the alarm responders may have been busy (on other calls, on break, in the bathroom) and unable to call right away.]

Throughout the movie, people keep calling the house and hanging up, yet the babysitter acts like she doesn't know whose calling. Towards the end of the movie you see the display on the phone showing there is caller ID available. [If somebody was prank calling the house, it is very likely they blocked their number, and caller ID would be of no use.]

When the baby sitter calls 911, the dispatcher basically blows her off. If she was calling 911 in real life that hysterical, the dispatcher would have sent out a unit to check on her. [There was a news story a short while ago about a 911 operator being fired for doing exactly that. It's real life, not a mistake. Some news stories: http://www.jems.com/products/articles/102586/]
