Why would they need to? Stalking you doesn't require a warrant. Breaking into your house, for example, would require a warrant, but a PI can't do that any more legally than the police can.

If your neighbor's Ring camera is pointed at your front door or living room, the police can legally acquire the footage without a warrant.
