Petting a seal occurs when the mind seeks to confirm that a boundary is safe to touch. This dream shows the internal effort to ensure that a specific agreement or a stretch of stability remains whole. By interacting with the animal, the dreaming brain is rehearsing the feeling of being in accordance with a settled matter.
The process of tactile contact serves to verify that the structures of authority or the social contracts currently in place are receptive and non-threatening. This contact allows the dreamer to feel the shape of a significant commitment. If tension exists regarding a pact, the dream tests how yielding that arrangement has become. A feeling of unease may exist where a boundary is being felt, but the dream provides a way to experience that limit as something manageable. The dreamer finds a way to exist alongside a closed chapter.

Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
