I am going to be so much more careful how much food I add in the future.
I don't think you need a plumber. Disposals clog all the time, and the reset buttom will trip. Also, hopefully, the wall switch is in the off position. I would ask the house sitter to make sure the wall switch is off, so there is no power to the unit. I would just leave it plugged in and unclog it when you return.
