Default i want raylan to bond with his owner

For the last five days i have been taking care of 10 week old, spunky and affectionate raylan. He belongs to my friend, but she is currently unable to be the primary caretaker of him until she gets her housing situation sorted out. she just got him 5 days ago, and he is an amazing dog who is so far not very high maintenance and very loving towards everyone he comes into contact with. However, right now my main concern is whether he will bond more with myself than my friend. So far she has spent nearly every day with him and plans to keep that up. When she is with him she gives him her undivided attention. He seems to have a pretty good connection with her so far. However, he sleeps in my room in his crate and is fed by me. i watch him a good majority of the day. I'm hesitant to give him too much attention for fear he will see me as his owner. Is there anything we can do to reinforce the fact that he belongs to my friend? This is a tricky situation and i want to do it right. Any input is appreciated! Thanks!
