My significant other and I lived in a 800 Sq Ft house for five years. We lived in a beautiful little town north of Pittsburgh. The house prices there a very low but the houses are still nice. It was 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. No basement but it did have a attic with decent storage there. We had one med. size dog and two cats in the house and it didn't seem that crowded. I bought the house for $25,000 and put $6,000 in updates in it. We ended up selling it for $55,000 two years ago. We moved into a 1800 sq ft house from there. The main reason for us moving was wanting to be closer to work. I will say that even thou we were happy in the small house we did crave something larger after five years of being in that small of a house. Like other have said. I have no idea if you would like the house in 5 to 10 years down the road but it is defiantly do-able for two people and pets in live in that small of a house and still be happy.
