Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Peoples Bancorp Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Peoples" refers to Peoples Bancorp Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries collectively, except where the context indicates the reference relates solely to Peoples Bancorp Inc.) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Peoples’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 ("Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K").
The accounting and reporting policies followed in the presentation of the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are consistent with those described in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples’ 2024 Form 10-K, as updated by the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2025 (this "Form 10-Q"). Management has evaluated all significant events and transactions that occurred after June 30, 2025 for potential recognition or disclosure in these Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In the opinion of management, these Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly such information for the periods and at the dates indicated. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. Certain items in prior financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation, which had no impact on net income, total comprehensive income, net cash provided by operating, financing, or investing activities or total stockholders’ equity. The impact of such changes are not considered material to Peoples' financial statements. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2024, contained herein, has been derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in Peoples’ 2024 Form 10-K. 
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year, due in part to seasonal variations and unusual or infrequently occurring items.
Operating Segments
Operating Segments: As a community banking entity, Peoples offers its customers a full range of products including a complete line of banking, leasing, insurance, investment and trust solutions. Peoples’ business activities are currently confined to a single reportable operating segment, which is community banking. Peoples’ single operating segment was determined based on the similar economic characteristics shared by the components of community banking. Peoples’ chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is composed of its President and Chief Executive Officer, and its Chief Financial Officer. Peoples’ CODM considers all components of consolidated interest income, interest expense, non-interest income, and non-interest expense as presented in Peoples’ Consolidated Statements of Operations for the purposes of assessing performance of Peoples’ single reportable segment and allocating resources within its reportable segment. The CODM does not review segment revenue or expense information at a lower level than what is included in Peoples’ Consolidated Statements of Operations.
New Accounting Pronouncements New Accounting Pronouncements: From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by Peoples as of the required effective dates. Refer to "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples’ 2024 Form 10-K for the impact of recently issued standards impacting Peoples. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes the impact of any recently issued standards, including those issued but not yet effective, will not have a material impact on Peoples' financial statements taken as a whole.
