About dog walking in Victoria

Why Victoria owners pick Petme for dog walking

Victoria sits in the centre of Gozo, which makes it the natural base for walking rounds that no Malta-island town can match: the Cittadella ditch and ring path for short shaded loops, Villa Rundle Gardens for a green break in the middle of town, and the Xlendi valley path or the Marsalforn-Qbajjar coast road when a dog needs distance. Gozo lanes carry a fraction of Malta's traffic.

The Gozitan booking rhythm is built around the ferry. Owners crossing from Mġarr to Ċirkewwa for a work day book a midday walk so the dog keeps its routine, and weekend-away bookings cluster around Friday to Sunday. Walkers based in Victoria routinely cover Fontana, Kerċem and Munxar in the same round.

Local context

Dog Walking across the Maltese calendar

Summer heat (Jun–Sep)

Sitters in Victoria schedule around the midday heat. Most bookings shift to before 9am or after 7pm during the hot months so paws stay safe on the limestone.

Festa fireworks (Jul–Sep)

Malta's festa season brings island-wide fireworks, peaking around Santa Marija on 15 August. Sitters plan calmer routes and adjust schedules on major display nights.

Hunting season (Sep–Jan)

Dog-related bookings around Mellieħa, Buskett and Dingli avoid the worst hunting hotspots between September and January. Sitters know the safer routes.

Frequently asked

Common questions from Victoria owners

How much does dog walking cost in Victoria?
Single walks in Victoria typically run €10 to €18 per session (30 to 60 minutes). Recurring weekly packages get a small discount. Petme charges 0% to owners and includes €20,000 vet protection on every booking.
When do walks happen in summer?
Maltese summer (June to September) is too hot for midday walking. Most Victoria walkers schedule before 9am or after 7pm and avoid the 12 to 4pm window. Walkers also test pavement temperature with the back of a hand before the walk starts.
Can I book recurring weekday walks?
Yes. Many Victoria owners with office jobs in Sliema, St Julian's or Valletta book a recurring slot (e.g. lunchtime 5×/week or after-work 3×/week) with the same walker for a predictable routine.
What about the festa fireworks?
From late July to mid-September walkers shift schedules around fireworks displays, especially the Santa Marija peak on 15 August. Anxious dogs typically get a calmer pre-fireworks walk and skip evenings with major aerial displays.
Do Gozo walks differ from Malta-island walks?
Mostly in traffic and shade. Gozo country lanes are far quieter than Malta's urban fronts, but they have little shade, so summer walks stay strictly in the early and late windows. Valley routes like Xlendi and Lunzjata hold green cover longer than the coast.
Are sitters in Victoria verified?
Yes. Every Petme sitter passes an ID verification check and is rated by real Maltese owners. Read reviews on each sitter profile, then book a free meet-and-greet before the first booking.
What does the Petme Protection Plan cover?
Up to €20,000 in vet expenses if anything happens to your pet during the booking. Automatic on every booking in Victoria, no separate purchase, no deductible.
Is there a booking fee?
No. Petme charges 0% to pet owners. The rate on the sitter's profile is exactly what you pay at checkout. Sitters also earn cashback on every completed booking.
