Tools I Use to Run Dog Bear Wellness
Running a small shop is a labor of love — and having the right tools makes all the difference. Below are the tools I personally use and trust to manage and grow Dog Bear Wellness. If you're a fellow shop owner, I hope this saves you some time and guesswork.
Shopify
Shopify is the platform I built Dog Bear Wellness on, and I wouldn't change it. It handles my storefront, payments, inventory, and shipping all in one place — and it connects seamlessly to my Etsy and Amazon channels. If you're thinking about starting an online shop or moving your business to a real storefront you own, this is where I'd tell you to start. I also put together a free step-by-step guide on exactly how to set it up — grab it on social media by following me at @dogbearwellness on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest.
Xyla AI
Xyla AI helps me streamline the business side of Dog Bear Wellness — from product listings to marketing support. If you're running an online shop and want to work smarter, it's worth checking out. It also integrates seamlessly with Shopify and any plans you sign up for are controlled by Shopify billing for one monthly bill.
Xero
Xero is the accounting software I use to keep Dog Bear Wellness's books clean. It syncs directly with Shopify and Etsy so my sales are tracked automatically — no manual entry. If you're serious about running your business like a business, good bookkeeping software is non-negotiable, and Xero is the one I trust.

Linktree
Linktree is my go-to link-in-bio tool for Dog Bear Wellness. Since you can only put one link in your social media bios, Linktree lets me point followers to everything at once — my shop, my social channels, new arrivals, and more. It's free to start and takes about five minutes to set up.
Some of these links may be referral links, which means I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. I only recommend tools I actually use.
