How to send DLL files with a .exe file

Question

I have an application that depends on some DLL files. I know that if I just make them in the same folder as the .exe file, this will work, but I do not want to leave files with the .dll extension with my .exe file. Is there a way to place them in a folder with my .exe file?

Or even better, can they be compiled and linked to an .exe file to have a standalone file? And no, I do not have a static version of these dynamic libraries.

(ps application is written with c, compiled with gcc, mingw win64, and .dll from gtk3 libs)

Thanks for reading my question.
