Running ROS on Raspberry Pi and Sending data to MacBook

I have ROS Kinetic installed on a Raspberry Pi, working fine. I have Gazebo installed on a separate MacBook. Since installing ROS on MacOS is still problematic and buggy, I want to know if there is a way I can use the ROS on my Pi to communicate with a Gazebo model on my MacBook, without ROS on my MacBook.

Can ROS on my Pi communicate and control a Gazebo model on my MacBook ? Or in a broader sense, can ROS on my Pi be used to access resources on my MacBook, WITHOUT MACBOOK having its own ROS.

You can create a Ros node on pi which talks to Mac running gazibo over tcp /ip and publishes data as Ros topic and vice versa. Similar on Mac you must have an app which listen over tcp/ip and interfaces with gazibo.
