My usual advice is... Don't try do to everything in a day, plan ahead and don't stress yourself trying to mine, tend to 15 animals, fish, talk, terraform and water 200 crops all at once. Time moves fast, and doing everying is not possible, but I think it keeps things from becoming a boring routine.
I usually set myself monthly goals, so for example, if I want to do a terraforming project, I dedicate to that almost exclusively until it's done and then use the leftover time to break the routine.
In terms of crops, don't over do it. Around 100 crops at a time is more than enough. And I'd recommend you to space them out in time so you don't need to harvest-till-seed-water 100 crops all in one day.
Try to get the most out of Dewy, and remember you don't really need to water crops every single day (most of the time, they'll do just fine every other day). So you may end up only needing to water your crops manually twice a week or less if you get lucky with weather.
About weather... It is set at 12 am, so if you save before that you can try to reload and sleep again to change the weather. However, there's a set number of rainy days and storms every month, so getting too many rainy days early on means the rest of the season will be dry. Use the reloading trick wisely.
If you wish to unlock new seeds, I recommend choosing one plant and focusing on unlocking that one plant. This way it will be easier to manage. Time moves quickly, so don't worry if you miss the unlock, just continue next year.
About animals...
Your animals show the "feed me" thought bubble twice a day, but you don't need to feed them twice, it's just an extra.
If you need to dedicate yourself exclusively to something else and there's no time to take care of your animals, you can just use the Architect and pocket their barn, they will get paused in time until you put it back on the valley, so you don't need to worry about them.
About the dog...
He will start to give you gifts if you feed him daily, if you miss a day, he won't give you a gift the next morning.
I hope this helps.
