To care for the sheep in terms of water, food, caring for diseased sheep, helping with birthing lambs. The other primary reason was to keep away animals that like sheep for dinner. But the biggest responsibility was to his owner, because animal herds were like bank accounts back then. The herds represented riches. It would be similar to a well-t0-do person asking you to care for their million dollars in cash.
