Keep your roof and gutters free of debris (leaves, moss, pine needles, etc).

A buildup of these flammable materials allows an ember from a nearby fire to land on your house in a hospitable environment and catch your roof on fire.  If these areas are clean/clear the ember will just burn out.  

Many houses are lost every year due to neglect of this simple maintenance step.  If you live near a wooded area especially and are not comfortable or capable of cleaning your roof and gutters regularly, it is worth having someone do it for you.
