Total Drama: Revenge of the Island
Dakota first appears in Bigger! Badder! Brutal-er! on a boat with the other twelve contestants. When Chris introduces her, she begins to talk, but is cut off when Chris introduces Anne Maria. This annoys her, and she shoves Anne Maria out of the camera's view. Anne Maria angrily sprays her face with spray tan. After Chris blows up the boat, Dakota is seen in a lifeboat being photographed by paparazzi. She playfully asks how they found her, only for them to reply that she texted them the location. This annoys Chris who assigns Chef to blow up the paparazzi boat. Dakota is later placed on the Toxic Rats team after finishing the race in tenth place. When Anne Maria arrives after her, Dakota waves to her, which causes Anne Maria to glare back at her. When a mutated squirrel appears in front of the teams, she kneels down to it, saying she wants one. However, when the squirrel roars and shoots electricity out of its eyes, she screams and runs away, jumping into Sam's arms. In the first challenge of the season, Dakota saws down the Rats' totem using a saw despite not knowing how to use it until Dawn tells her to pretend it is "daddy's steak knife". Although the Toxic Rats arrived first, her team loses the challenge after their selected cabin explodes and she, along with the others, end up annoyed with Staci's chatter. Dakota ends up in the bottom two in the first Campfire Ceremony of the new season, but ends up safe and recieves the final marshmallow after Staci receives the Marshmallow of Toxic Loserdom.

In Truth or Laser Shark, Dakota is woken up by Dawn's conversation with a bird. When Dawn reveals she knows why Dakota wants fame, she freaks out and tries to go back to sleep. Later, she wakes up with bags under her eyes,saying she needs more beauty sleep. She talks to Sam, who develops an attraction towards her and tries to complement her, but fails. She is confused by his compliment and tries to return the favor but has nothing good to say to him. Before the first challenge, Chris takes away Dakota's phone. However, Dakota uses a back-up phone in the challenge, which is ruined by water. In the challenge, the two teams tie which leads to part two. Before part two, Sam says he and Dakota have a lot in common. She dislikes this at first, but then understands that Sam was only talking about the electronic withdrawl. In the second part of the challenge, Dakota is at the end of the challenge, with Cameron. She becomes too distracted by the paparazzi to compete and ends up losing the challenge for the Toxic Rats. All of the Toxic Rats (besides Sam) vote for Dakota. At the campfire ceremony, Dakota is eliminated but she does not take the Marshmallow of Toxic Loserdom. She is in shock, saying she never got her spin-off series yet and proceeds to run away. She is asked by Chris if she has any last words but before she can say them she is shot in the sky by the Hurl of Shame shortly after.

In Ice Ice Baby, Dakota crashes her hang glider into the campfire during the Toxic Rats' elimination ceremony, colliding into and landing on top of Sam. She asks Chris to let her return to the competition, saying she needed more time on the camera. Reluctantly, he brought her back as an intern after getting a call from her father, who offered him a large amount of money to bring her back.

Dakota made a more prominent return in Finders Creepers, as Chris' new intern. She was tasked with preforming different duties around the camp during the challenge, after waking the remaining contestants with an airhorn. As the challenge progressed, she found Sam, who had fallen into a grave, and unkowingly poured kitchen grease all over him, attracting the presence of several large maggots. She considered apologizing to him, but found this disturbing and instead left Sam. When the Mutant Maggots lost, Brick was spared as Chris decided to have him switch teams, and decided to make Dakota take the Hurl of Shame instead, for the second time. Despite this, he did inform her that she still has a job as an intern as long as she swims back.

Total Drama Reloaded
In her original design, Dakota's initial body shape and facial design were the same, but her overall look was drastically changed. She originally had red hair with a flower in it, and her hair was only about shoulder length. She had long, tan-colored jeans and a purple shirt. Her skin was also paler. She lacked the sunglasses that she currently wears. Her original design was instead recycled into the current design for Zoey, with some minor changes. Since then, her shoulder length red hair is changed to long blonde hair, her purple top was changed to a pink top, her long tanned pants were changed to a hotpink color, her shoes are currently pink and her skin is now tan.
