The people who wrapped the mummies might try extra hard to impress him and people might buy better mummy wrappings to a) impress Anubis and b) to try and make sure that the deceased had a better afterlife.

Because he is the god of mummification. When you die the ancient Egyptians believed that when you die you go to the afterlife.when you travel to the afterlife Anubis is there waiting for you. they take your heart out and weigh it on a scale your heart on one side a feather on the other. if your heart is heavier than a feather your soul gets eaten by a monster if it is lighter you enter through a gate to the afterlife.

Anubis was the god of the dead. The ancient Egyptians believed that he provided them with the book of the dead, which told them how to have a good afterlife.

Because in the tombs are mummies, and Anubis is the god of mummification!
