Is this a brown recluse?

Miami Beach, FL

Hello. I have found a bunch of these in my home in the last couple weeks. Usually crawling, or hanging from the roof on a string. I live in Miami. I am worried that they are brown recluse's because I have a small dog. Please help me identify. Thank you very much.

Definitely NOT a recluse spider. It's shape is suggestive of a cobweb/comb-footed spider (family Theridiidae). The images are too blurry for me to be certain, but it might be a red house spider- see http://knowledgebase.lookseek.com/Red-House-Spider-Nesticodes-rufipes.html

Not a recluse.
