This support article has a list of things to do if your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen. --> If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen - Apple Support

- The Find My service described in the article is the only recovery feature Apple offers. It must be set up before the device is lost.


In fact if you had properly set up the phone for your sister to start using there may be absolutely nothing preventing the finder from making it their phone.
