Dill, while in college in Nashville, got her start in television portraying the broken-hearted love interest in over two dozen country music stars' music videos, including Billy Ray Cyrus, Aaron Tippin, and Trace Adkins. After appearing in her first film, Heavyweights (1995), Dill went on to obtain a number of television roles, including appearances in Two and a Half Men, 24, The Weber Show, Becker, ER, and Cracking Up.[2][better source needed]

In 2005, Deena Dill was cast in the film Coach Carter and then as a recurring character on the television show Boston Legal. Dill transitioned back into television, with roles on Vanished, 3 lbs, Las Vegas, CSI: NY, The Starter Wife, and Drop Dead Diva.

From 2009 to 2010, Dill played the role of Gibby's mom, Charlotte, on Nickelodeon's top rated television show, iCarly. She worked on a number of hit television series such as The Closer, Bones, Army Wives, Awkward, Disney's Good Luck Charlie, and ABC's Scandal.

After a recurring role as Bliss from 2011 to 2013 on ABC's television series Suburgatory, Deena was cast in another recurring role as Margaret Montrose, the mother of Grey Damon, on the new sci fi alien drama Star-Crossed (2014) on The CW.

Dill is one of the creators and executive producers of the CW's game show, Oh Sit!, alongside Phil Gurin and Richard Joel.
