Crossword Genius

He looks after someone's wardrobe and sideboard (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dresser

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

'sideboard' is the definition.
(I know that sideboard can be written as dresser)

'he looks after someone's wardrobe' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'someone' could be 'dr' (Dr is an example) and 'dr' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dresser that I've seen before include "Domestic furnishing" , "Surgical assistant" , "one coming into line?" , "helps actor get ready" , "One chiding" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
