Brownie should be just fine. House lizards are not poisonous. However, I don't recommend giving her the olive oil in the future, because too much fat suddenly can stress her pancreas and cause a painful and dangerous condition called pancreatitis. Just watch for vomiting and diarrhea from the oil, and take her to a vet if you see that, but otherwise you're good to go.
