Because Snape was in love with Harry's mum, and he also promised Dumbledore. All along Snape was a good guy really, so he'd do the right thing whether he liked Harry or not to make up for all his other mistakes in life.

Answer

He did all he could to help protect Harry and destroy Voldemort because Voldemort had betrayed him by killing Lily (Harry's mother), whom he loved. He protected Harry because he knew Harry was the only one who could destroy Voldemort for good.

He did it all for Lily -- not Harry.

He also wears a tea cosy on his head. When Hermione Granger began hiding clothes she made around the Gryffindor Common Room in an attempt to free the Hogwarts house-elves, Dobby kept the clothes and began wearing them, as the other elves refused to.

Does dobby return in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2?

No, he doesn't. There is no Harry Potter 8. There is a Harry Potter 7 book, and two Harry Potter 7 movies, Part one and Part two. He doesn't die in any of them. I don't want to say too much, but he means to die to end the Battle of Hogwarts, and then he sees Dumbledore and Dumbledore explains everything to him in 7 part two and book 7.
