Trailer wheels are usually too close together to use gojacks. The Harbor Freight dollys would work well - but small casters and if you are putting it next to a wall you'll want steel casters so they don't flat spot. If you use them but a tie strap to hold them to the wheel. I looked at ideas to park our travel trailer in a garage I plan on building. I came up with a cpeeper type idea. 4 500 pound casters 1/4 steel plate 6" longer than tire contact area 1" angle on sides to stiffen it and whatever size angle needed to mount casters so there is 1" clearance. One end is closed and the other open with casters to side so you can just pull or back the trailer onto them.  A set of these will lock the trailer on the dolly. https://www.campingworld.com/x-chock-tire-locking-chocks-2-pack-49876.html?cgid=chocks#start=1&cgid=auto-stabilization-performance%2Fjacks-leveling-chocks%2Fchocks
