Face Puncher
Face Puncher is a minor character portrayed by Hollywood Yates, who went to get his championship jacket dry cleaned by Trish in the episode Kangaroos & Chaos. He tells Trish and Ally that Mad Dog hates waiting which is revealed at the end of the episode to be his daughter. The jacket later is shrunk and turned pink by Trish and Austin takes the blame for it. Face Puncher wants to beat up Austin for 'ruining' his jacket and Mad Dog saves Austin by asking her dad if he got the jacket for her. He knows who Dez is by saying that he was the guy who ate the twenty pound hamburger which Dez autographs Face Puncher's shirt in ketchup which makes Face Puncher chase after Dez to beat him up. In this episode, Ally says that he looks like a "hand holder" or a "hugger" instead of a face puncher, then opens her arms, wanting to hug him, he growls at her, then Ally lowered her arms. Apparently, he got his name because he punches people in the face.

Mad Dog
Mad Dog is Face Puncher's daughter, who Ally and Trish meet in the episode Kangaroos & Chaos. She is portrayed by Emily Skinner. Because of her scary name, Trish and Ally thought Mad Dog was one of Face Puncher's friends (maybe even stronger than himself.) She has blonde hair, and it appears she does ballet, as she is seen wearing a ballerina costume. She seems to have a necklace that looks like it has a butterfly. Mad Dog does not like to wait!

When Face Puncher comes to the dry cleaners to pick up his jacket and sees it has been ruined, he gets angry. Austin quickly steps in to take the blame, and just as Face Puncher is about to punch him, a little girl walks in, sparing Austin from being "face punched." She is identified as Mad Dog by Face Puncher. It is unknown what her real name is. As said by both her and her father, she hates waiting, which was why she came into the dry cleaners.

Mad Dog sees the small pink jacket, and thinks it's for her from her dad. Face Puncher helps her put it on, no longer minding that his jacket was ruined since his daughter loves it. When the two are about to leave the store, Mad Dog sees Austin and requests an autograph, to which he excitedly obliges. She seems to be a huge Austin Moon fan and seems to have heard A Billion Hits and all songs before.

Old Lady
The Old Lady is the elderly lady that Ally accidentally asks out to see a movie Saturday night, when she thought she was actually asking Trish. Though the old lady most likely does not know Ally, she excitedly agrees to go to the movie with her. She appears in Rockers & Writers. Dez nearly kills her by causing a harmonica to go into her in her throat, when he tried to play a harmonica through a sousaphone after people are impressed with Austin playing a trumpet through another trumpet. He quickly uses the Heimlich Maneuver to save her, though he does manage to make her dentures fly out of her mouth. At the end of the episode, it's revealed that the lady fell asleep during the movie and Ally had to explain the whole movie to her on the bus home. She is portrayed by Beverly Polcyn.

Old Rocker
The Old Rocker is an elderly extra in the opening of the episode Deejays & Demos. He was a frail, senior citizen in a sweater vest with a walker that was interested in buying an electric guitar from Sonic Boom, who Ally didn't believe would be interested in such an instrument. When she told him that sales of electric guitars to "customers his age" were uncommon, he seemed to take offense as he pulled down his glasses. Realizing she may have inadvertently insulted him, she quickly changed the course of her conversation and pretended that she meant that he might be too young to play the specific guitar. The old man takes over and blows her away with a short riff reminiscent of Van Halen in their heyday. Ally is so impressed that she ask him to be her grandfather as he shakes his head and walks away to buy the aforementioned guitar. The Old Rocker is an uncredited role.

The Security Guard
The Security Guard is another minor character in the show Austin & Ally, who was in charge of making sure only people who were supposed to be at the TV Station were there, but she let Ally and Trish go though anyway. She is portrayed by Cocoa Brown. She appears in Rockers & Writers.

Walter
Walter is the picky janitor at the theater. He is kind of a clean freak because he freaked out when he found a piece of popcorn near Austin and Ally's seats. He also got attacked by Pickles the goose when Austin led Ally back to the movie theater after they ran from security at the pond.

Walter is played by Matthew Scott Montgomery, of So Random!, a Disney Channel original series which had been cancelled.

Pirate Frank

His first appearence was in Bloggers & Butterflies where he fired Trish and Dez for deep frying his entire restaurant. His second appearence was in Burglaries & Boobytrapswherehis harpoon was stolen. His 3rd appearance was in myTAB & My Pet.

Pirate Frank is played by Jim Hoffmaster.

Statue Guy
Statue Guy is a minor character. His first apperance was in "Managers & Meatballs," he acts like a statue in most episodes and was only seen to move and talk at the end of the episode. Statue Guy also makes a apperance in "myTAB & My Pet"

The Statue Guy is played by Jeff Blum.

Ralphie Hayes
Ralphie Hayes is a minor character who appeared in the episode Kangaroos & Chaos. He was a teen actor on a commercial that was selling dog food. Many people have mistaken Austin for him, because they look similar except the dog food guy has an afro. For this reason Austin became concerned that he would be regarded as a has-been and rushed Ally into writing a new song for him. He is portrayed by Ross Lynch.

Mildred
Mildred appeared in the episode Filmmaking & Fear Breaking. She starred in Dez's movie, Claws (Dun Dun Dun) as the damsel in distress, whom Austin's character, Troy, saves from the giant claw. Mildred is an uncredited role.



Brittany
Brittany appeared in the episode Filmmaking & Fear Breaking. She was an elderly woman who auditioned for Dez's movie, Claws (Dun Dun Dun) as the damsel in distress, whom Austin's character, Troy, saves from the giant claw, but was rejected. She was later chosen by Trish to play her stunt double. Brittany is an uncredited role.

Talent Scout
The Talent Scout (later named "Mr. Neidermeyer") appeared in the episode Filmmaking & Fear Breaking. He was from the Music University of New York, a prestigious music school somehwere in New York City, and seen in Ally's flashback during the opening of Sonic Boom which took place when she was 13 years old. Evidently, his appearence was part of a promotional gimmick for the opening of the store. His sadistic nature drove a young girl who was auditioning before Ally nearly in tears, and was the catalyst for Ally's stage fright. He appeared again in Albums & Auditions to see Ally's audition.

The scout is portrayed by John O'Brien. It's a strong possibility his character was named after the cruel ROTC Cadet leader Doug Neidermeyer from the ground-breaking 1978 teenexploitation movie "National Lampoon's Anumal House."

Mall Delivery Guy
The Mall Delivery Guy appeared in Burglaries & Boobytraps. He stole things from the mall because he was mad he never got tips. As the mall thief, he stole things from stores in alphabetical order. Austin caught him when he hid in the piano that the delivery guy tried to steal.

The Mall delivery guy was played by Ithamar Enriquez.

Officer Dunphy
Officer Dunphy (No first name given) appeared in Songwriting & Starfish. He is a patrolman for the Miami Police Department who caught Team Austin at the Mall of Miami and assumed that they were robbing Scoop, There It Is, Trish's place of employment at the time. When they were brought down to a local police station they each explained that despite their appearence, they were in the process of writing a song for the FM 109 "Hot Summer Jam" contest, and retreiving Ally's song book from the ice cream shop. Although they convinced him of their plight, he still refused to let them go, until Ally saw him drumming with pencils on his desk.

Dunphy originally sought a career as a drummer during his youth, but was talked out of seeking such a career by his father, who we can assume is dead. Both Austin and Ally realized they could coax the officer into letting them go if they give him a chance to join the band at least for that one concert, a plan that almost failed.

Officer Dunphy was played by Kelly Perine.

Ethan
Ethan(no surname given) is a boy Ally met in the Halloween store in the episode Costumes & Courage. He wanted a Charles Lindbergh costume when Trish was working there, but she gave him a random pilot costume instead. When Ally shows her cute nurse/Florence Nightingale costume to her, she persuades her to introduce herself to him. When Ethan recognized her as Ms. Nightingale, Ally jokingly said "Good ol' Flo," and winds up embarrassing herself. He sees her again at the Star Records Halloween Party only this time dressed as Galexis Nova, and doesn't recognizer her as Ally. As he asks for her phone number, she gets so excited that she leaves the balcony and forgets to take it.

Ethan was played by Troy Osterberg.
