In 2008, they starred in the Disney Channel Original movie Camp Rock as Caitlyn Gellar, an aspiring music producer.

Stoner starred as Alice McKinley in the movie Alice Upside Down , based loosely on the Alice series, particularly The Agony of Alice by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor. This was their second starring role and, according to an interview that appears on the direct-to-DVD release, they stated that this was the first time they had to appear in every scene in a movie.
In 2008, they sang two songs, "Lost and Found" and "Free Spirit", from the soundtrack of the movie Alice Upside Down, in which they played the lead role.

Stoner also guest-starred in the television drama series House as a skater.

In March 2018, Stoner came out in an article on Teen Vogue , stating they were "attracted to men, women, and people who identify in other ways." [11] Later that year they stated in an interview "I don't feel comfortable labeling my sexual orientation or even faith at the moment." [12] In June 2023, Stoner stated that they use they/them pronouns and they had been fired from a television show after coming out as queer. [13] [14]
Stoner has been open about their struggles with mental health and disordered eating.
