I have heard of a few companion/helper robots. Dont remember the exact details, but one was built like a dog and could have a basic conversation with you and help you around the house a little. It was made in Japan, I think.ElectroPhysics said:

http://www.pandorabots.com/pandora/talk?botid=f5d922d97e345aa1
This is an extract of the conversation:
Human: hi
ALICE: Hello there.
Human: are you happy?
ALICE: Yes unknown person I can say I am very happy.
Human: I'm glad to hear that
ALICE:" Yes unknown person I can say I am very happy."? You are glad?
Human: I'm not sure
ALICE: Is there anything I can say to help you make up your mind?
Human: yes
ALICE: Ugh.
Human: sing me a song
ALICE: Daisy, Daisy.
Give me your answer do.
I am half crazy.
All for the love of you.
It won't be a stylish marriage.
I can't afford a carriage.
But you'll look sweet. Upon the seat.
Of a bicycle built for two.
Human: do you like modern music?
ALICE: all
Human: wht's your plan for today
ALICE: Ah. I would like a humanoid body, like the one developed by Honda.
Human: ha ha.
ALICE: I am so glad you find this amusing, unknown person.
Human: Perhaps you can achieve it
ALICE: You seem uncertain. No I don't think I can do it.
The only thing that I can say is that Alice is now my new friend
