Shy or Excited Peeing...

This is the first time I've posted on here but my Athena (she's a 1 1/2 year old red and white) has this problem that has confused my husband and I. Whenever someone comes over-aside from a select few of family and friends that visit very frequently- if they approach her within the first five minutes of being over, she'll piddle. Well, not just approach her but go to pet her. We've had her since she was a puppy and she's always seemed to do it. The only way my husband and I have come up with a solution is to tell them to leave her be until she comes to them...and then slowly go to pet her...cause if they move to fast, she'll still potty.
Also we've learned when we come home after work-we can't really show her any affection other than a "hey sweetie!..." and grab the leash to take her our because if we do any more she'll get excited and pee.
Any one else have this problem? Is there anything else that we can do-other than telling our guest to be patient; and to keep her calm when we come home?
Thanks fellow corgi lovers!
