I think there is something to be said for wearing proper protective footwear (shoes) indoors. Shoes might also save injury from accidentally dropping something on the feet.I have different shoes of course. The ones used indoors aren't those worn for the allotment or gardening. The soles are usually fairly clean.

Usually hard soled ones from M&S....Most outdoor shoes don't get past the doormat....
Please, Mrs Supervisor, Foxy's nicked me slippers.

But I can’t bear the thought of traipsing about the house with shoes on. Sister has a pair of slippers to put on when she visits, and I ask anyone coming into the house, yes indeed tradespeople, if they wouldn’t mind taking shoes off in the porch. Or I ask if they want overshoe protectors on.
Am I being over fussy? I have new stair carpet, and new rugs dotted about, and vow to keep them clean. But I was always like this in the London flat, and yes, I do wipe Holly’s paws most days.

Not a good idea to go out in the back garden with the same attire. A neighbour complained once and a 'plastic policeman*' came round and suggested I took a little bit more care. (* support officer).
