It sounds like you are looking for something like the Trailer Valet part # STC-V211. This is a jack that also features a handle that can be cranked which will turn the wheels of the jack (which are rubber), to allow you to move the trailer around in a controlled manner.

Since your trailer is 3,600 lbs this jack should have enough capacity as it is rated for up to 500 lbs of tongue weight. The only issue is that our customers who have tried this jack on grassy areas have had mixed results. Some have said that it worked decently whereas others said the tires of the jack just spun. I would imagine the results are largely dependent on the tongue weight of the trailer and overall conditions of the grassy area.
