How would you handle a tenant asking you to remove your shoes?

I have a tenant who tends to be quite rigid in general. Recently, when I came by to check something in the unit, she insisted that I take off my shoes before entering. I understand it's her living space, but I was there for a maintenance-related issue.

Is this a reasonable request, or is it crossing a line? Curious how other landlords would approach this.

I would remove my shoes or at least use a shoe cover. That is unless the work required shoes.
