Abstract
A waste removal device includes a body, a paddle, and a collection chamber. The paddle is drivable to deliver waste from an area to be cleaned to the collection chamber. The waste removal device further includes a fluid delivery device arranged to deliver a fluid to the area to be cleaned. A lever may be actuated to drive the paddle and an optional brush or other secondary means, which scoop and clean pet waste from a surface. Upon activating the paddle, a water sanitation system may engage and deliver sanitation fluid both onto the area to be cleaned and onto internal mechanisms of the device.
