The water caddy includes a frame with a bottom end supported by a wheel and axle assembly. A handle is attached to the top end of the frame. A container is attached to the frame by a container retention assembly in a position which places most of the weight of the container and container contents on the wheels for transport. The top end of the frame is placed on the ground and the bottom end of the frame is lifted up to raise the water container to an elevated discharge position. A stabilizer leg, that is pivotally attached to the bottom end of the frame, has a ground engaging pad on its second end that sits on the ground and holds the bottom end of the frame in an elevated position.
