Earth and Venus have very similar masses and sizes; all other planets are either significantly smaller or significantly larger than the Earth. Earth and Venus also are relatively close in terms of their distance from the sun; the orbits of all other planets are farther from the Earth's orbit, except for the closest planet, which is Mercury.
