Sharing of saliva can lead to rabies.
You can never be too sure if bowl has been properly washed. Better would be to get vaccinated as it is serious disease if it happens and you should be responsible for yourself and family members. Of course if you are sure that bowl has been properly cleaned and no saliva contact then you can ignore my advice.

Human-to-human transmission of rabies virus has only been documented from infected organ/tissue donors to transplant recipients.
So though theoretically it is possible for you to get infected by rabies, most likely you are safe. Of if want more security, it would be better to get vaccinated as well.
No harm in vaccination.
