Exactly. I usually spray late in the evening so by the time the dog walkers are out it’s been dry for a long time. According to product labels most of those products are safe for kids and pets once dry. I believe ideally you want most of the chemical to be absorbed by the plant and taken down to the roots so it makes sense.
I treat the lawn the same way I do every other neighbor interaction. Any time our neighbors give me a heads up that they’re having people over, or some sort of noisy function I don’t care. In exchange I expect that same level of “do what you want” for any potentially irritating things I choose to do in my own yard.
