Is it okay to miss a gardasil shot by a few days?

Yes: The vaccine may not work if given too early, but studies have demonstrated that a bit late works fine in triggering your immune system.

Yes: The vaccination schedule is 3 shots at 0, 2, and 6 months. If you miss your scheduled shot by 1-2 days it's ok. Just schedule a visit with your doctor as soon as possible to complete the vaccination series.
