There are pet-doors designed and weatherstripped to be through-wall.
Pet doors that are designed to fit partially opened glass sliders have a few issues: unconditioned air, dust, and insects going through the open space between the two glass panes; security; and restricted opening for human use.
If you have (or can hire) the skills to decently patch a wall, then there should be no problem at all on the inside of the house making it look like a doggie-door was never there. On the outside, that kind of depends upon the siding materials if you want a truly invisible repair. Having lived in neighborhoods with vestigial milk chutes etc.; I don't think people think twice about a random weatherproof panel covering up a low former opening on the back or non-visible-from-the-street side of a house, as long as the repair is weathertight and insulated as well as the rest of the wall. But good siding repair is not very hard if you can find matching material.
Anyone have an opinion on a wall doggy door? (like this)
