If you don't mind seeing your chipmunk and just don't want him eating your plants - put out some peanuts or cheap wild bird seed, the chipmunk will probably leave your plants alone. It may also be desperate for water right now so I little ground-level birdbath my help deter him from the plants too.

Keep in mind: If your newly-planted pansies and hostas are out in the hot sun right now, they may not survive well anyway. Hostas prefer shade and pansies do best in cool weather. For them to be successful right now, they will need regular watering.
