Seemed a little odd to me that she would know about Azkaban and dementors just because she remembers Lilly mentioning them when, apparently, she wanted to have very little to do with Lilly and James.
Just speculatin'.

No, I don't think Petunia is a Squib, because in the first book, McGonagall remarks that "the Dursley's are the worst sort of Muggles imaginable". I think if Petunia was a Squib, it would have mentioned that.
