Violet Cowan went missing in the Wellington suburb last week - sparking a LandSAR and Police operation.
Police say the meter reader saw the girl walking on a driveway in Wadestown, towards an area of bush.
They say he recognised her from a photo they'd released, and his description of her clothes checked out with her family.
Police were then able to significantly narrow the search area to find her.
