At Sparky Steps, we spend our days exploring every corner of Chicago with your furry family members. From quiet neighborhood walks to energetic lakefront runs, there is nothing we love more than seeing our city’s pups happy, active, and enjoying the fresh air.
That’s why we were so thrilled when Redfin reached out to ask us for our favorite local outdoor dog spot! Our very own Michael Jaurigue gave a special shoutout to Montrose Dog Beach, one of the absolute best places in the Windy City for dogs to run off-leash, splash in Lake Michigan, and make new friends.
We are honored to be featured alongside so many wonderful local organizations, neighborhood guides, and Chicago experts.

Why We Love Exploring Chicago with Your Pets
Whether it's catching waves at Montrose Dog Beach or taking a scenic stroll along neighborhood trails like The 606, Chicago is truly a world-class city for pet owners. Giving your dog regular outdoor time and mental stimulation isn't just fun—it's essential for their health and happiness.
A huge thank you to the Redfin team for including Sparky Steps in this piece, and an even bigger thank you to our amazing community of pet parents for trusting us with your pups every day.
