I love taking care of pets I have 2 cats myself but I love any animal. I have had cats, dogs, etc. so I know how to take care of animals walk them feed them play with them. Also I will definitely lay on the floor with them with lots of hugs and pets! My in laws have two dogs and one of them is a Newfoundland and he absolutely loves me along with the Bassett hound I will lay on the floor with both of them. Sometimes even falling asleep with them. I will talk and tell them goodnight and good morning with a big hug before bedtime and a big hug in the morning. I give them treats when they go out in the morning and at night before bed. But I will follow whatever schedule you have for your pet.
