Professional Colorado Springs Bookkeeper

Meet Misha Gifford

As the owner of Meticulous Bookkeeping, I am a reliable, detail-driven Colorado Springs bookkeeper for small businesses throughout the area and beyond. My services are designed specifically for small business owners who want clarity, consistency, and personal attention.

With over five and a half years of hands-on bookkeeping experience – working directly under a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), I have supported multiple small businesses across a variety of industries, helping them stay organized, compliant, and confident in their financials.

While my business may be new, my experience is well-established. I hold an Associate Degree in Accounting from Pikes Peak State College and am a Certified Bookkeeper (CB) through the American Institute of Professional Bookkeepers (AIPB). In addition, I am also a QuickBooks ProAdvisor, ensuring my clients benefit from up-to-date knowledge of industry-standard accounting software and best practices.

Being meticulous, honest, and approachable, and I take pride in building long-term relationships with my clients. When you work with me, you work directly with me – your books are never passed between departments or employees. While providing consistent service, clear communication, and my full attention, I take the time to understand your business so your financial records accurately reflect what’s really happening.

My goal is to take bookkeeping off your plate so you can focus on running and growing your business. I believe small business owners deserve dependable support, transparency, and a bookkeeper who is truly invested in their success.

More About Misha

Aside from bookkeeping, I stay busy being a mom of two and active in my local community. Aligning with my love of books and reading, I proudly serve as a board member for our local library. I also love getting involved with my children’s school, serving as VP of the PTA and supporting fundraising events.

Whenever I’m able to find spare time, I enjoy crochet projects, sewing and reading… and have recently taken up playing D&D at the library!

Hiring a certified bookkeeper gives you confidence that your business finances are being handled with accuracy, professionalism, and care.
