Ride A Pet Roblox Best Pets - Base Speed and Income Ranking
Rank the best pets in Ride A Pet Roblox by base speed and base income, then see which early pets to replace first.
What are the best pets in Ride A Pet Roblox?
No single pet wins both categories. The pick depends on whether your bottleneck is travelling to eggs or generating cash, so the roster splits into four bands:
| Band | Pets |
|---|---|
| Leaders | Phoenix, Cerberus, Dragon, Kitsune |
| Upper rows | Ostrich, Fox, Giraffe, Cheetah, Unicorn, T Rex |
| Mid-game upgrades | Kangaroo, Deer, Spider, Crocodile, Gorilla, Snake, Horse, Wolf, Shark |
| Early pets | Snail, Turtle, Sloth, Axolotl, Koala, Capybara, Chicken, Pig, Elephant, Panda |
The two leaders answer different questions: Kitsune holds the highest base speed at 1B, and Dragon holds the highest base income at 300,000,000%.
The numbers on this page come from the authorized All Things How stat articles, updated September 15, 2026. They are base values taken before mutation, and they are not this site’s in-game measurements. The Ride A Pet Roblox pets list carries the same roster in one table with every 1 in N rarity row.
Which Ride A Pet Roblox pets have the highest base speed?
Base speed decides how quickly you cross the map and how many egg spawns you can reach per lap, so it is the first field to compare when travel is your bottleneck. The ten fastest reference entries are:
| Pet | Base speed |
|---|---|
| Kitsune | 1B |
| Dragon | 300M |
| Cerberus | 100M |
| Phoenix | 1M |
| T Rex | 266K |
| Unicorn | 137K |
| Cheetah | 38.4K |
| Giraffe | 27.4K |
| Fox | 19.5K |
| Ostrich | 6.96K |
Kitsune is the speed target, with Dragon and Cerberus holding the next two places. Everything below the 1M row sits far apart from that band, which makes the lower entries mileposts on the way up rather than destinations. Turning speed into reach is the subject of the Ride A Pet Roblox how to get faster guide, which also covers the Hatch Luck upgrades that feed more hatch attempts.
Which Ride A Pet Roblox pets earn the most cash?
Base income is the field to compare when cash is the bottleneck instead. The same reference scale puts these ten rows at the top:
| Pet | Base income |
|---|---|
| Dragon | 300,000,000% |
| Kitsune | 90,000,000% |
| Cerberus | 30,000,000% |
| Phoenix | 100,000% |
| T Rex | 50,000% |
| Unicorn | 30,000% |
| Cheetah | 3,500% |
| Giraffe | 2,200% |
| Fox | 1,200% |
| Ostrich | 750% |
Dragon leads here while Kitsune leads on speed, so the pet that earns the most is not the pet that travels fastest. How a percentage becomes cash on your Ranch is covered in the Ride A Pet Roblox pet income guide, and the route that can produce Dragon itself is covered in the Ride A Pet Roblox how to get Dragon guide.
Which Ride A Pet Roblox pets are worth keeping for the mid-game?
The mid-game band is where most playtime sits. Each row below improves on both fields over the row before it, so any of these is a straight upgrade over the early pets:
| Pet | Base speed | Base income |
|---|---|---|
| Kangaroo | 3.05K | 125% |
| Deer | 3.25K | 150% |
| Spider | 3.69K | 160% |
| Crocodile | 3.94K | 170% |
| Gorilla | 4.48K | 200% |
| Snake | 4.78K | 240% |
| Horse | 5.34K | 350% |
| Wolf | 5.71K | 375% |
| Shark | 6.10K | 400% |
Ostrich and Fox sit directly above this band and already appear in the two tables above, which is why the mid-game table stops at Shark. Eggs are what move you through it, so keep hatching ordinary eggs instead of holding a slot for a pet you have outgrown: the Ride A Pet Roblox egg list records the Clover-cost ladder the Index uses.
Which Ride A Pet Roblox pets should you replace first?
The ten lowest-rarity rows are stepping stones. Their base values are the reason they get replaced quickly:
| Pet | Base speed | Base income |
|---|---|---|
| Snail | 15 | 3% |
| Turtle | 50 | 5% |
| Sloth | 90 | 7% |
| Axolotl | 165 | 9% |
| Koala | 300 | 5% |
| Capybara | 407 | 20% |
| Chicken | 553 | 25% |
| Pig | 750 | 30% |
| Elephant | 1.02K | 35% |
| Panda | 1.38K | 50% |
Koala is the one row that does not improve on both fields: its 300 base speed is higher than Axolotl and Sloth, but its 5% base income is lower than both. That is worth knowing before you equip it as an upgrade on income.
Nothing here means these pets are unusable. They are simply the rows to hand over to something faster as soon as a hatch gives you one, because the cheapest eggs keep producing pets well beyond this band.
How should you read this Ride A Pet Roblox pet ranking?
Two rules keep the ranking usable:
- Compare base to base. Every value on this page is a base value taken before mutation. A mutation is a separate modifier with its own multiplier, and it can push a pet’s displayed speed and income far above the next row up. Decide what to keep on the base values, then look at the multiplier the pet carries; the Ride A Pet Roblox mutations guide lists the multiplier cards.
- Rarity is not power. The
1 in Nvalue is the hatch-rarity label for its own row. It orders the Index ladder, not these tables, and one row’s label never converts into a speed or income number. That is why the pets here are grouped by base stats while the Ride A Pet Roblox pets list still shows the Index order.
Follow those two rules and the answer to “which pet should I keep” stops depending on which egg a pet came out of.
