Abstract
The portable pet waste container comprises an enclosure with a carrying handle and a retractable scoop. An interior bag compartment at the lower front of the portable pet waste container is lined with a bag that opens to the outside with the scoop positioned several inches in front of the compartment. The portable pet waste container is placed on the ground with solid pet waste located between the bag and the scoop. A bagging control located on the handle is used to signal a control module within the portable pet waste container to initiate a bagging cycle, which involves using the scoop to pull the pet waste into the bag and pumping air out of the bag, causing it to collapse. With the collapsed bag covering the pet waste, the bagged pet waste may be removed through a bottom door of the bag compartment.
