Hitch it up to the car and chock the other wheel, that's the usual safe method.

Try to put the jack as near as possible to the axle but do not put the jack under the axle itself, it gets a bit expensive if you damage the axle! There is usually a flat place somewhere where you can put the jack but it varies from trailer to trailer. Whatever you do don't get under an unsupported trailer.
