The specification describes a combination bag and scoop used for cleaning up waste material when walking one's pet. The bag includes a closed bottom portion for holding waste material and an upper portion having an open mouth for insertion of waste material into the bag and closing means for closing the bottom portion of the bag after placing waste material therein. The bottom portion is constructed of a flexible, impermeable material such as high density polyethylene. The upper portion which is also preferably constructed of a high density polyethylene includes two relatively flat parallel sidewalls adjacent to one another. Each of the sidewalls is provided with a finger insert at one end thereof with both of the inserts located at the same end of the upper portion. The upper portion is rigid to the extent that upon insertion of a finger and a thumb or a pair of fingers in the inserts, the mouth can be spread open by bowing the sidewalls. However, the upper portion is also resilient to the extent that upon withdrawal of a finger and a thumb from the inserts, the sidewalls resume their flat parallel relationship. The scoop includes a handle and a scooping portion for scooping waste material into the bag when the mouth is spread open. The scoop is placed in the bag after use and the bottom portion is then closed by the closing means to substantially eliminate spillage and odors.
