In an example embodiment of a carrier described herein, a silicone/plastic material used in the carrier is such that it can be manipulated in a variety of ways and still be shock absorbent and flexible. The carrier frame is sturdy, cannot be bent out of shape and yet still remains very flexible. The pet liner comprises a tube with a baffle/rib that is inserted into each tube spaced at intervals throughout the structure. This gives it air pockets between the baffle/ribs. These tubes with baffle/ribs cover the bottom, back, and opposite sides with an open front. This frame sits inside a box, crate, carrier, cage, or trailer. It is covered with a durable material. It too has a back, bottom and opposite sides with an open front. It is also easily cleaned.
