Athena plays a big part in aiding Odysseus back to Ithaca.
She acts as his guardian and helps him through many of his troubles and distresses. She reunites him with his son Telemachus and disguises him in Ithaca as a beggar. In the end she also reunites him with his wife Penelope after twenty years away from her.
Athena disguised Odysseus so no one will recognize him.
She treated Odysseus very well. Without Athena, Odysseus would not have made it home.
Athena was one of the main gods of Ithaca. Odysseus prayed to Athena and eventually befriended her. Athena trusts Odysseus enough to let him see her, unlike other mortals.
I believe it's because Athena pities and likes Odysseus.
