Hello! You’re from my home town :))
Anyways the spider is a scotophaeus Blackwalli!
Commonly known as the European Mouse Spider (not to be confused with the Australian mouse spider)
They’re lil immigrants from the UK and have established themselves along the Pacific NW in Oregon and California
Not dangerous in the least, but the bite reportedly hurts quite a bit and leaves a mark like an aggitated pimple.
Edit: Ps. It sounds from the size like a pretty young one
Mouse Spider it is!! I just saw the picture on the site and is a match 100%
