Me (29M) and my GF (29F) living separately have been dating nearly 4 months now, we are going very well, very comfortable around each other and the same values. She was away on a trip from month 2-3 and the time away showed that we can maintain contact and have good conversations even when apart. She got back and we had 5 days of “normalcy” before the next challenge. She is looking after her sister’s anxious dog for 6 weeks (currently week 2.5) and this dog cannot be alone so she or her housemate has to be home to look after it (housemate barely home). This means that apart from one night we got to spend away, all of the times we catch up (2-3 nights a week) are at her house with the dog (and 2 cats). This is fine as i said we are already very close but I am finding it difficult to show my love/appreciation in such a repeated atmosphere. I feel as if this leads me to become more physical (touching, kissing etc) and I don’t want it to seem like that’s all I’m there for. Any advice? Sorry for the long post.
TL;DR: Gf stuck at home for 6 weeks and I don’t know how to show love/affection without physical touch in a repeated atmosphere

Learn a good card game for two together and have fun with that. Perhaps some other game like chess or different card games or board games.
