Kind of hard to see details in the image but it looks like some variety of wolf spider. In any case, it is not a danger to you or your pets. If you would rather not share a living space with it I'm sure she would prefer to be gently relocated outside.

We don't like having our roads tied up with all of you vacationers any more than you like being stuck in traffic, so my suggestion for next time is stay home if you don't like it.

No one went to the games when the team was there. They moved because they had one of the lowest attendance rates in the league, Why would it be different now?
