Pocket Pair on BTN Facing Aggression

Blinds: $0.10/$0.25 (8 Players) BN: $25.00 (Hero)
SB: $26.72
BB: $28.28
UTG: $25.00
UTG+1: $11.38
MP: $24.28
MP+1: $50.14
CO: $26.07
SB is playing 19/15 and folding to steals 71% of the time over a sample of 1.2k. Cbetting 55 and 55 on flop and turn.
Preflop ($0.35) Hero is BN with 9 9
5 folds, Hero raises to $0.62, SB raises to $2.25, BB folds, Hero calls $1.63
I possibly could have raised a standard 3x of the blind. I think folding to a raise here would be too tight and 4betting would only get everything better to continue and fold out worse
Flop ($4.75) 8 4 2
SB bets $2.27, Hero calls $2.27
No reason to fold to a standard cbet
Turn ($9.29) 8 4 2 6
SB bets $5.94, Hero calls $5.94
Decided to call again as his flop cbet and turn cbet are very similar
River ($21.17) 8 4 2 6 5
SB bets $16.26 and is all in, Hero folds
Surely I can't beat anything now?
Final Pot SB wins $20.22
Rake is $0.95

This is my first hand I have posted in a while and will certainly be posting a lot more. The big reason I am posting it is because I have recently moved up to $25nl and am just getting used to have bigger losing sessions in terms of money. To try and avoid tilt I am wanting to make sure I am not making drastic mistakes at this higher level. This was one of my biggest losing hands in that session so thought I would ask peoples opinions on it.

Thanks again guys. Good to be back
