Be careful about doing/ doing

This dialogue is from a TV series:

A: So sorry I am late.

B: Of course it happens... just need to be careful being late to appointments with CA's office...

a- ... be careful about being late to appointments with CA's office...

b- ... be careful when you are late to appointments with CA's office...
