Let the dough rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before stretching. Use a gentle touch and work slowly. Good luck!

After letting the dough rest for at least 30 minutes, lightly flour your work surface and rolling pin. This would keep the dough from sticking to the surface or your hands.

I think lightly flouring your work surface and hands can help prevent the dough from sticking and tearing. Though, be careful not to use too much flour, as it can make the dough dry!
