Hi lybrate-user, if your pet has just licked your leg and skin is intact you need to wash that area thoroughly under running water for 15 min and apply antiseptic. If their is any bite mark present you need to wash that area and get vaccinated. N consult a veterinarian for your pets vaccination schedule.
