Chicago's North Side is some of the most walkable, dog-dense real estate in the country. Dote is building a Chicago walker network one neighborhood at a time, starting where the density already is.
Chicago's lakefront neighborhoods were built for walking long before dog-walking apps existed — tree-lined blocks, a serious lakefront trail culture, and winters that make owners actively want a reliable walker rather than doing every walk themselves. We're starting where that culture is strongest.
We're launching in a handful of neighborhoods first, so every walker genuinely knows the blocks they're walking.
Dote is launching across Chicago's North Side first — Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Wicker Park, West Loop, and Logan Square — before expanding further. Sign up today to get started.
You can sign up today. Chicago is on our expansion roadmap, so how many walkers are available near you depends on your area.
