I'm not convinced there is really any need to go beyond the standard human pronouns. If the robot has a name that implies gender, use the proper pronoun. If you don't have a clue, as in a pet like a dog, use it until you have more data.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.
