hello. i’ve kept several of these as pets. it’s called a “bold jumping spider” or “daring jumping spider” (Phidippus audax) they are super smart. very curious. most people including me think they’re super cute and they seem to be as interested in watching humans as i am in watching them. there’s a million videos of them kept as pets on youtube. check out “peacock jumping spiders” on youtube, too. they do these insane dances and are beautifully colored. bold jumping spiders can bite, but it’s not likely. and if they do, it’s no worse than a bee sting.
