Green Gecko?

I found this little thing in the office today. Do we have green geckos on Saipan? I am not sure what this little one is all about.She's (gender assuming) was really timid and tiny.
I had to contain her for a little while so that I can check it out much closer without it running away. Can you see the orange outline of its tail?
Its color reminded me somewhat of the Gold dust day geckos that I've seen in Hawaii. She looks a little yellow now next to the green grass.
It is some type of house gecko I am going to guess. She scampered from the grass to the concrete wall fairly quickly after she was released.
I've got to figure out if that color is typical or if this is something new.

Ti napu.
