I don't know if there is a name for this, but I've heard of people who take a time-stamped picture of the stove just before they leave, to help them cope with an OCD symptom like that. It is somewhat better than the old approach of carrying an iron with you to avoid worrying whether you turned it off :)
Thankfully I don't have anything like that. Mentally telling myself "yes, I see that I've turned off the stove" is sufficient.
