Best way to keep kitcehn floor tiles clean

So the builders have left and we have a lovely new shiny kitchen / dining area. The tiles are light grey Matt. What’s the best way for me to keep on top of keeping them clean?
Daily sweep?
Daily hoover?
daily mop?
Robomop?
Floor wipes?
Never let the dog out in the garden ever again? (His access is through the bifold doors behind the dining table although we could make him go in and out of the utility room door but he still then has to come through the kitchen so what’s the point?)
TIA

I have a self refillable spray mop thingy from Lakeland. It’s always ready to go. No buckets etc. Then proper clean once s week.

Steam mop! I can't use mine on any of the floors in my new house and oh how I miss it.

Thanks zzzz.
We do have only fake grass and patio so the dog is not coming in muddy muddy, just damp paws really. We have quite a large mat and normally he waits for his paws to be wiped.
I think he will only be a tiny part of the issue though. I’ve only gotten away with it for so long as we had quite dark coloured amtico that didn’t show any marks.
Whose idea was it to have light tiles?

Hoover.
Then steam mop.

Quick, effective.

Big , washable, absorbent mats at all entrances. Big enough so that DDog is going to take at least 2 steps on them
