Division Chief Robert Hodge told WRAL News it took about 20 minutes to get the fire under control and no injuries were reported.
The homeowner told WRAL that three parakeets and a cockatiel were taken out of the home along with some fish.
Fire crews said power lines in the area were also impacted during the call, so the power was turned off in the area.
Crews did not say how the power lines came down. It is unclear when power will be restored.
The two people displaced are staying with family and friends.
