While working on my tree I came across an account. I guess it was orphaned. Can I just take it over and work on it since no one has been caring for it?

I think you mean a profile and, for that, the answer is yes - you are encouraged to adopt any orphan profile that you would like to care for.  Thank you for doing that.

By the way, the word "account" usually means an active member's user account at WikiTree, which I'm pretty sure you're not interested in taking over.
