Does he resent being a bodyguard? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

minder

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a bodyguard?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'does he resent' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'he' could be 'der' and 'der' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'min' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'being' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for minder that I've seen before include "One who objects" , "One who looks after (someone or something)" , "One looking after" , "Bodyguard (colloq.)" , "baby sitter?" .)
