If memory serves, this is from Dumbledore's instructions to the
students in PoA not to wander outside the school after dark as the
Dementors would get them.  But I took it to mean that they would go
after anything they sensed was human, no matter who it was;
invisibility cloaks don't disguise your essential humanity, after
all.

Against this you have to put the Dementors' inability to figure out
that Sirius Black was transforming into a dog in Azkaban.  He says he
did it a number of times and they didn't tumble to it because they
couldn't read the vibes or whatever you want to call them.  If they
can't discover that a prisoner is turning into an animal practically
in front of them, I think Snape can risk it.
