  -> Hvala

neutral  Mira Stepanovic: No, sorry, I don't think so. :-) "Dadilja" = "nanny" so "dog nanny" sounds odd; although I admit that I do not have a better suggestion. In addition "pseći" has a negative connotation in this context in my opinion.
10 hrs
  -> How do you translate babysitter?

disagree  Daryo: za blago sprdanje je dobar prevod, ali ne i za ozbiljno; pored toga "pseća dadilja" bi se pre brinula o psićima, što nije posao za "dog sitter"
11 hrs
  -> ma naravno dadilja čuva i stariju djecu a ne samo male bebe ali eto to mi je prvo palo na pamet jer što se tiče pasa oni i jesu kao djeca za nas li naravno uvijek postoji bolje rješenje i bolji prevod

agree  Tiadellus: koristi se izraz "dadilja za pse"
