Using the energy loss rate in the process μ^{+} + e^{-} → ν_{e} + ν̅_{µ} we develop a model which formulates the jump rate for muon diffusion in non-stoichiometric metallic hydrides LaH_{2.75}, CeH_{x}, YH_{2} and intermetallic hydrides ZrV_{2}H_{x}, Zr_{2}NiH_{x}, Hf_{2}CoH_{3}, Cu_{0.5}Ni_{0.5}H_{0.72} and Ni_{0.35}Ti_{0.65}H_{1.5}. The jump rate is found to follow an Arrhenius-like relation over some temperature ranges.
