It looks to me like there is a lot of info about towing 4-down, but not about towing with a dolly.
I've hooked up my car on a dolly in the past when using a rental truck and dolly by myself.
Basically, you hook the dolly up first then drive onto it carefully, then secure the car. When you are by yourself, you have to get in and out of the car making sure everything lines up, and making very small movements to get everything right.
This Penske page has a video about loading a car onto a dolly with two people. But you can see how to do it alone. Also, most places you would be loading your car onto the dolly, you will probably find someone willing to help guide you.
