Does he? Does he really?

Yes he gives advice and groom's them. Look at what he said at the start of year speech. Look at how he basically shirks his duty and concentrates on Ruby in the emerald forest.

I have seen nothing indicating he cares about them. That may be for the best too, I think that the survivability rate of hunters and huntresses must be low.(unless the grimm are really as weak as we've seen them.) No attachment, less pain when one dies.
