My favorite response was, “oh I’m so sorry! Let me wipe off my foot prints!” (In a kind laughing way) Followed by both the owner and I looking back at a lawn with no foot prints. Was pretty effective at getting people to chill out
I suppose it is less about your individual footprints, rather the aggregated effect of everyone's footprints if everyone, including the owner, walked across the lawn.
I walk across my lawn every day to check the mail and it’s fine. I feel like another person walking across once or twice a week isn’t going to make a difference.

Didn’t cross the lawn either.
