Feeding your companions is the fastest way to gain EXP and push them toward their level caps in Ride A Pet. Choosing the right ride a pet food is essential because every item provides a different amount of experience, and supplies are strictly limited.
I have definitely wasted plenty of cash early on by dumping expensive food into low-tier pets that I eventually traded away. It really stings to see that money disappear when you realize those late-game eggs are going to need the same resources later.
Before you start shopping, make sure you have your target pet placed in your Ranch so you are ready to apply the EXP immediately. Keeping your cash reserves healthy for when the shop refreshes is the best way to stay ahead.
All Food Items in Ride A Pet
Food serves as your primary method for upgrading pets without relying solely on active gameplay. Since the shop stock is limited, avoid feeding your mid-tier pets unless you absolutely have to.
Only invest your hard-earned cash into your absolute best Ranch residents. If you do not have high-quality eggs yet, save your money until you do.
Here is the breakdown of every food item you can acquire to level up your companions:
| Food | Price | Rarity | EXP |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grass | 10 Cash | Rare | +500 |
| Bone | 1,500 Cash | Epic | +10,000 |
| Meat | 30,000 Cash | Legendary | +100,000 |
| Magic Apple | 7,000,000 Cash | Mythic | +300,000 |
| Dragonfruit | 30,000,000 Cash | Ethereal | +1,000,000 |
How to Get Food in Ride A Pet
You can pick up supplies at the Food Shop located near your base. The inventory here is refreshed every 2 minutes and 45 seconds, so keep an eye on that timer.
- Head over to the Food Shop in the central hub and locate the Tim NPC.
- Interact with Tim to view the current menu of items.
- Check the available stock and purchase the specific food you need with Cash.
- Once bought, your items stay safely in your inventory until you decide to use them.
- Check back after 2 minutes and 45 seconds to see if the shop has restocked.
How to Feed Pets in Ride A Pet
Feeding is the main way to boost your pet’s level, but you need to place them in the Ranch first. After you use your Radars to snag the best eggs, follow these steps to start leveling.
- Open your inventory and select your chosen piece of food.
- Walk up to your pet and interact with them to trigger the feeding process.
- Watch the EXP bar jump up based on the item rarity you selected.
- Remember that you can feed your pet even while you are currently riding them.
One common mistake is trying to feed pets while they are still in your hotbar. Make sure you place them in your base or mount them before trying to apply the food.
Focus your resources on one pet at a time to maximize your efficiency during the early stages of the game.
Dragonfruit is the best food in the game, providing a massive +1,000,000 EXP boost for 30,000,000 Cash. You can always find your supplies at Tim‘s shop in the central hub, which cycles its inventory every 2 minutes and 45 seconds.
Don’t be afraid to save up for the larger EXP items if you’re trying to max out your primary mount quickly.
