Some of her characters include Sherry Netherland, the owner of the Furry Arms Hotel after Julianne Buescher left the show in 1993 and Phoebe, an member of the segment, Monster Clubhouse, from 2001 to 2003. Dinnean-Vernon left the show in 2004.

Her non-Muppet productions she performed in was the horror-humor TV series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Her performance on the show involved performing a demon puppet in "As You Were" and a living mummy hand in "Life Serial". After the series' end in 2003, Dinnean-Vernon performed a puppet-like character of Angel in the episode "Smile Time" along with Peter Linz and other performers and designers.

Dinnean-Vernon performed Mary on the Emmy-winning children's series, Jack's Big Music Show created by Sesame Street puppeteer David Rudman.

Currently, she is writing episodes and performing characters on the Playhouse Disney's children's show, Bunnytown.
