As has been suggested, the only PERFECT rhyme-word is "Zippo".
But if this if for a poem, you often do not need a 'perfect' rhyme; a 'near rhyme' may do the trick.
Look for words in which the vowel sounds are exactly the same ("full assonance"), and the consonant (or consonant cluster) is at least reasonably close
Here's a collection of possibilities, grouped roughly from 'closest' to most distant:
limbo, akimbo, bimbo
info
limo
ditto, litho, kiddo
sicko
pinko, stinko, gingko (or jingko)
sipinto
bingo, dingo, flamingo, eringo, gringo, jingo, lingo, pingo, stingo
gizmo, dipso
___________________
In a case like this, you might also find that a word ending with -po, with a short vowel-sound before it which is not short-i but is CLOSE, may work.
The only one I could think of for this word is the place name, "Aleppo" ( a city in Syria).
___________________
This may be of limited use, but there are many examples of light (often comic) verse (esp.song lyrics) in which a word like his is rhymed by simply tacking an -o on the end of a word ending with accented /ip/.
Examples: ship-o, rip-o, tip-o, nip-o, whip-o. . .
