The services are maybe hosted by myself, but the servers aren't mine. I'm only borrowing a small chunk of resources from some company, so can it still be considered self-hosting?

It’s self hosting. Is it home lab? Nope. Though plenty of people use VPS as a way to terminate their VPN connections and such.
