In this case it does not make a difference which one you use in my opinion. Just keep in mind that
"kommen"/"gehen" can be used as "to come" (walk towards a person/location) and "to leave" (going away from a person/location)
In this case though "gehen" is used as "to walk" and not "walking towards"
her- always denotes movement otwards the speaker.
