The reason is due to the distance between objects. Trees and nearby houses occupy a large area in your vision, so it's easy to see the change.
And the Moon is too far away, the average distance between the Moon and the Earth is about 384,400 km, extremely large compared to the distance you travel on Earth, so it only occupies a very small area within the eye of friend. With the distance that the Moon's view does not change, it is not lost in the eye's vision, you will see that it just seems to stand still and follow you.
On the other hand, our brains also understand and compare the position of the Moon with the surrounding landscape passing by as you move. Therefore, we will see the Moon always moving with you.
