Your guests shouldn’t be more important than you to your dog!

You want to avoid your dog becoming overly excited when guests come over. When your dog becomes over excited by guests, they are less likely to listen to you, or really focus on anything. And although the behavior may not be dangerous towards guests, it’s still a heightened state of arousal, a pendulum with the possibility of swinging in either direction. So, if your dog is getting way too excited when guests come over to visit, it may be helpful to crate them for a bit when guests are over to create more of a calm state. After you’re satisfied with the dog’s behavior becoming more relaxed, you can then move on to working on bed stays when guests come to visit!
