IOL: Ten Years of atFrits in Cape Town
In November 2025, IOL sat down with founder Yanic Klue to mark 10 years of atFrits, Africa's first five-star dog hotel and doggy daycare. The article looks at how the hotel opened on 1 December 2015 and how we have cared for dogs in Cape Town's city centre ever since.
The feature highlights our one-stop approach to dog care, including daycare, overnight stays, grooming and physiotherapy, as well as the 24/7 cameras that have been part of the hotel from the start. It also covers the Cape Town Pet Upliftment Project, which works with the Cape of Good Hope SPCA. We believe this level of care and transparency is simply the standard every dog deserves.
