An apparatus for disposing of pet waste including a housing defining a receiving opening and an internal storage area. A pair of control arms are slidably connected to opposite side walls of the housing and include a handle at first ends thereof for controlling the position of the control arms. An L-shaped door is pivotally connected at one end to a front wall of the housing adjacent the opening, and pivotally connected to the control arms so as to be movable between open and closed positions. To dispense of pet waste, the control arm handle is pulled forward to open the door, the receiving opening is placed behind the pet waste, and the handle is pushed to close the door and capture the pet waste within the housing.
