The muddy entryway and all the hair are really bothering me. What should I do?

Hey everyone, I live alone in a roughly 860 sq ft apartment.

My job is exhausting enough as it is, so when I get home, I really don't want to spend time deep cleaning.

But here's the issue: it rains a lot in my city, and there's an unpaved dirt path right outside my building that i have to walk through. So every time it rains, my entryway gets covered in muddy footprints. If I don't clean it right away, they dry and become a pain to scrub off later. Besides that, I'm also dealing with a lot more hair shedding, so I feel like I'm constantly seeing hair on the floor.

I've seen a lot of people talk about robot vaccums, but I've been wondering if a robot vacuum makes sense for a place this small or if its more of a luxury flex.

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
