Pet Product Shopify Development

A pet food brand came to us with a 1.1% conversion rate. We rebuilt their store and hit 3.4%.

Before: They sold premium raw dog food — great product, loyal following on Instagram, $65 average order. But their Shopify store was a mess. No way to filter by breed size. No subscription option on the product page. The "build a box" feature they wanted didn't exist. Mobile checkout took 6 taps too many. They were spending $10K/month on ads driving traffic to a store that couldn't convert.

Bridge: We rebuilt everything. Custom collection pages with filters for breed size, protein type, and life stage. Subscription widget built right into the product page — choose one-time or auto-ship with two clicks. A "build your box" feature that let customers mix proteins and add treats. Mobile-first checkout with Apple Pay and one-tap reorder for returning customers.

After: Conversion rate jumped from 1.1% to 3.4% in 45 days. Subscription signups increased 280%. Average order value went up $12 because the bundle builder made it easy to add items. Same traffic, same ads — the store just stopped losing people.

The Pet Products eCommerce opportunity

Pet eCommerce has unique requirements that generic Shopify themes can't handle. Customers need to shop by pet type, breed size, life stage, and dietary needs — and they expect subscription options for consumable products. The brands winning in pet eCommerce have stores built around how pet parents actually shop: filter by their specific pet's needs, subscribe for auto-delivery, bundle products, and reorder with one click. With 72% of pet product purchases happening on mobile, the experience has to be flawless on a phone screen.

What pet products brands get wrong with shopify

  • No breed-size or life-stage filtering on collection pages — every customer sees every product
  • Subscription options aren't visible on product pages or require too many clicks to set up
  • Mobile experience is clunky — slow load, tiny buttons, checkout friction
  • No bundle builder for customers who want to mix products (food + treats + supplements)
  • Returning customers can't quickly reorder their previous purchase — the path back is too long

How we do shopify for pet products brands

We build pet product Shopify stores around three principles: findability, subscription conversion, and repeat purchase ease. Findability means custom collection pages with filters for pet type, breed size, life stage, protein, and dietary needs — so a customer shopping for senior small-breed grain-free food finds it in two clicks.

Subscription conversion means the auto-ship option lives right on the product page with clear savings displayed and a frequency selector. No separate subscription page. No buried toggle. It's front and center because that's where the LTV lives.

Repeat purchase ease means returning customers see their last order, can reorder in one tap, and get suggestions based on what they've bought before. We integrate Klaviyo from day one for email capture and post-purchase flows. The entire store is designed to turn a first-time buyer into a lifetime subscriber.

What's included

  • Custom Shopify theme with pet-specific collection filtering (breed, size, life stage, diet)
  • Subscription widget integration (Recharge or Skio) on product pages
  • Bundle/box builder for mix-and-match purchases
  • Mobile-first responsive design with one-tap reorder for returning customers
  • Klaviyo integration for email capture, pet profile collection, and post-purchase flows
  • Product page UX: ingredient details, feeding guides, breed recommendations
