About Us
My name is Michael Wright and I am the owner and operator of PoopBandit® Dog Poop Removal Service. PoopBandit® specializes in the environmentally safe removal of pet waste for all breeds of canines in residential yards and HOA communities throughout Central Florida.
Since 2017 we have been a family-owned & operated company in Winter Garden, Florida. PoopBandit® is not a franchise, we are a locally grown company that is focused on client satisfaction. We do business with, buy from, and support local businesses in our communities. There are no profits that go to out-of-state franchise interests, all of the commerce that takes place with our company stays in the Central Florida economy, period.
We started very small and built the company for one reason in 2017, to provide a job for my oldest son Lucas when he was still in High School. The job market was very different back then!
I’ve always had a passion for helping people and have been very service-driven throughout my entire life and career. My son Lucas was in AFJROTC in high school and service is in his blood. He was ultimately driven to join the Marine Corps! After he served as a Marine he came back to a much different company and I’m glad to say he still works for PoopBandit® while he pursues his Bachelor’s Degree.
When the world shut down from the Pandemic in 2020 and Lucas was in the Marines, I decided to throw my old profession to the wind to try and grow our little company of 8 clients. After some hard work, luck, and a lot of poop we now service hundreds of clients in Central Florida including over 200 HOA communities.
We look forward to serving you!

What’s in a Name?
Our first family dog was the “original poop bandit” and oddly enough his name was actually Bandit!
We adopted the perfect Border Collie to herd our 3 kids when they were little and our family was still young. As time went on Bandit started to suffer from anxiety and confusion like most Border Collies do as they age. Our veterinarian recommended that Bandit would do better if he lived out his remaining days on a farm and did what Border Collies do best, which is herding animals. Luckily, we found a great place for him to roam! This company is named in his honor, RIP Bandit.
