We set up a mini-range in our backyard. First we stuck a thick rubber horse trailer mat to our fence. Then we built a large wooden frame and secured it to the fence, then stacked bales of hay inside and strapped them down. We mostly used paper targets. That lasted for a couple of weeks until we realized that there were snake eggs in the hay, then I screamed like a little girl and made my husband throw it all out.
Now we use the same frame and rubber mat, but we added archery netting. Bungee cords are used to hang cube-shaped or square targets. The rubber mat, netting, and occasionally even indoor-outdoor carpet keep any arrows that miss the target from getting caught in one of the neighbor's pugs.
I wish I had a picture of the frame, but it's wet and dark outside and I'm not wearing pants, so I'll have to settle for describing it. It's a large rectangle, about 8 feet high (same as the fence), 10-12 feet wide, and about 4 feet from the fence itself. It has two parallel planks at the top that run the entire length. The front is used for bungee cords and targets while the one behind it is used for hanging netting and/or carpet. (My husband occasionally shoots through netting, which is why we added outdoor carpet. It's not pretty, but it's effective.) The rubber mat is attached to the fence and is a last line of defense. (It's a pain in the butt to pull an arrow out once it's stuck in the rubber, so try not to hit it. Still probably better than having to pull it out of a pug though.)
