I don't do the flat rate, but I am one of the only ones that I know that doesn't. I allow the owner to provide the feed. If they don't then I buy the feed, and send them a receipt with the invoice. I will do the same for any vet, farrier or chiro...and I make sure to clear it with the owner BEFORE I have them seen so that the owner wont be surprised by an invoice and extra charges. I invoice weekly, or bi weekly or however it is easiest for the owner...only according to the rides that I actually put on the horse. Included in the invoice is what I did with the horse, what I was working on, how the horse was doing... I send videos every two weeks. I charge $5 a day to board. So if I don't get to ride because of the weather you don't get charged anything for that day other than board. I charge 20$ saddle for babies and $15 to keep one legged up or tuned on. And I only take in 2 outside horses at a time. I have three of my own...If I haul one to a race I invoce exhibitions and entry-fees and for that horses "hole" in the trailer...again...all known to the owner BEFORE I put them in the trailer. 

It doesn't work for everyone...but it works for me and I think that it's reasonably fair. 

So do you charge for hay plus $5 a day for board?

 I pay $750 for 30 days, not 30 rides. This includes all feed & care. I expect 5 rides per week. I pay extra for shoes,  vet or dental. If the horse is to be hauled, then fuel sharing and entry fees are extra. If horse wins a check then that is subtracted from what I owe.  If I did not have confidence that the trainer was riding my horse, then I wouldn't take them there in the first place.
