Small lizards and so on don't need domesticating, since they are being usually held in terrariums. Fennec can be domesticated, it's not very easy though. Capybaras did went through domestication both historically and currently, just it was dependent on region and pigs are vastly better choice for livestock when compared.
Fennecs can be barely tamed.
You cannot domesticate something. Domestication requires hundreds of years of selective breeding and conditioning.
If so,they're not really pets, more like captive toys.

Also not true. Capybaras never went through domestication. It's just that they're very docile
