Abstract: A pet waste collection device for collecting and discarding animal waste is provided. The device comprises a shaft with a vacuum head mounted to the shaft. A vacuum motor is mounted within the vacuum head. A nozzle is connected to the shaft and the vacuum motor provides a suction to the second end of the nozzle. A retractable claw member having a plurality of extendable claw fingers extends from the nozzle. A waste bag is positioned within the claw member. An access port is formed in the vacuum handle. Upon collection of the pet waste in the waste bag, the claw fingers close as the claw member retracts into the nozzle, the open end of the waste bag closing shut. The bagged pet waste is suctioned by the vacuum motor through the shaft to a waste bag receptacle within the vacuum handle and removable from the receptacle through the access port.
