I think the Powermax+can do this. I know if you have the GSM module it can
send you SMS as I've done that.

It has two arming modes "Arm home" and "Arm away". You could set it up so
that it only monitors the back yard when you are away. Not sure if you can
set it to change modes at different times of the day.
