In Sdns – Lightweight, fast recursive dns server with dnssec supportI'm using Cloudflare's cloudflared [0] on all of my machines and it working well and does what you are looking for. Nice bonus is being able to collect metrics from each of the agents in Prometheus.

In Inside Firefox’s DNS-over-HTTPS engineI'm using cloudflared [0] for this. Allows me to have system level DoH and everything uses it (unless explicitly configured not to). Working on Linux machines (amd64 and aarch64) and MacOS.
The documentation is not great / accurate but with a bit of fiddling I have it running as a systemd service (launchctl on MacOS). I'm using the /metrics endpoint to get details in Prometheus on the stats.
