[quote=Anonymous]This is an off-shoot of the age-old shoes in the house or not issue. We generally don't wear shoes in the house, although if a guest comes in wearing shoes that's not a close family member and/or we're having a party we might let shoes slide by. We recently moved, and I've been trying to find a new cleaning service... my last cleaning service the owner (and her employees) removed her shoes from day one without any prompting, and it was never an issue. This time around, in the process of interviewing people and trying out one service so far, I've noticed that many cleaning services are reluctant to remove shoes and prefer to work with shoes on or at most shoe covers. Shoe covers are fine with me, although I guess I worry a little about someone slipping (is this being paranoid? I'm thinking very long-term since I hope to have a cleaning service long-term). I can understand people wanting to work with their shoes on, but I also think about 4-5 people at once coming through the house tracking in all the germs etc. from outside. *If you typically don't wear shoes in your house* do you ask your cleaning service to do the same?
